Hands down one of the best sounding locos on todays railways

This video is pure gold please never delete it

For someone who lives all the way down in Australia, 10/10 for superb footage of what has probably become my favourite British diesel loco. (I watch all the films I can). The 37 delivers the sort of raw engine sound, with accompanying smoke that makes rail power so stirring to watch. Great video. Thank you.

Thank's for the comment..Take care Warren

Oh yeah this is what we all like to hear, nothing held back & full blooded raw from those magnificent engines!

The class 37's are my favourite loco's of all time, that exhaust sound & the turbo whistle is absolutely classic. Pity this video shows only 2 of them.

The noise that makes when pulling away it’s just fantastic. Delwick is a noise of its own.

Beautiful livery on the 37403. As are so many on our fabulous railways. May the class 37's hold their own in years to come :-)

Easily one of the best locomotives ever built. Love them

Miss this soundtrack honestly, rode these almost daily back in 2017/18 going between Yarmouth and Norwich. Wasn't long before I was timing my trips back home from Norwich to get on the 37 instead of the 2 car DMU.

Great video! Very sharp and clear images. Thumbs up.

Absolutely brilliant machine. Ahead of its time

Great quality video, fabulous subject matter. It’s a shame we don’t get on passenger duties these down on the sussex coast instead of the noddy trains.

Lovely locomotives

That face mask on the box man first clip is a beast!

I used to live in a house that had the Rumney line running directly behind it, the sounds of these loco's struggling up the hill was a regular event

Very enjoyable video with a good mix of locations, great stuff !

Well, britains railways will be electrified, so probably an emu if the line gets 3rd rail or overhead, but it will be sad because, these locos won't run in passenger use, because the 67s pull the British Pullman and sometimes class 66s, 37s will only be usage for freight and test trains, but then again there is a 37 that still pulls a special train, hopefully it doesn't get replaced

great class 37 video.

Are these common in brundal and Norfolk as I am going in 3 days?

The guy must be in a rush over the bridge to catch another 37 the other way

Thanks for the video! So are these locos still on use in anyway in Britain / 2020? Greets from Finland!

Think the class 37's are a superb design. I am wondering why there are 2 loco's for only 3 carriages and both engines are running. seems a massive waste of fuel [ im not clued up on trains ]

Two locos in case the lead one fails as most trains are now DMUs and cannot couple to them.

They are class 37s, not 37's. No apostrophe needed!

Are these Electric powered with diesel generators?

Blame USA Diesel engines coupled to a main and auxiliary generator that supplies bogie mounted traction motors, so diesel electric.

You do not require an apostrophe between the 7 and the s of 37s. Apostrophes are needed only for the possessive case as in " the class 37's livery" or to indicate an omission. This was not the case in the title of the video and it irritated me so much I missed good clips of the class 37s!
