Filmed on 2C47 Preston - Barrow-in-Furness. You could hear 37401 anywhere in the station before it even started! I've never been behind anything like it. Terrific! Turn it up very loud and please enjoy!
Here another great thrash from 2022. English Electric Heaven!!

Magic ! I remember about 1978 being in an oil depot right next to the Newcastle to Carlisle line when 45 iron ore tipplers pulled by 2 class 37s stopped at the signals right next to me . The signal cleared and the driver gave it some welly, the noise and air vibration was almost frightening. Absolutely awesome. 37s rule
Brilliant story! We’ve got to get them in now while we can. This was my chance and it was superb!! So glad I did it. Great memories. P
AWESOME!!! What a totally trouser-bulging sound! 👍🏻
The sound of thunder on the rails, very satisfying to hear that performance, looks good too.🙂👊👍
I'm sure we all love the shape of the Class 43 HST power cars. But I think the next best classic diesel locomotive is the Class 37 - those things don't like to hang about do they!
The 43s and their Mk3 coaches are an elegant design that has aged extremely well, the 37s have a menacing look and sound but are equally cool, they are both British icons of the railways.
They are awesome & the rumble of their engines is divine 🇬🇧👏
It was a very good day!!
@@pauljones401 they are great to watch & cherish the memories 🙏
The sound of them in the south Wales valleys was awesome
Wonderful to see these still running in the 21st Century. I love the sound of the engine.
It was a great week up there experiencing them 👍👍👍
*This is why we love trains.*
I’ll take a first coach windowhang any day behind one of thes
Thats why i love 37s. Just HELLFIRE.
Paul Marley hope you get the chance to enjoy too!
I visited may times, had em loads on the 10.04 ex Preston. Good days.
37s are king when it comes to guteral exhaust note
Class 31s we’re alright too😉😀
They have Soot (clag), too.
@@Shelfandtabletoplayouts00gauge 31s have a very similar power unit to the 37s, though if you’re lucky enough to find one with the original brush power unit it’d sound a world of different!
Fantastic thanks for posting 👍this noise brings back so many memories of preston station early 80s
I am french. Oh my good, so beautiful noise… wonderful. 🍺 Guinness
My nan used to have a house near to a train station in North Wales and as a kid these trains used to scare me by the sheer sound and look of them. The start up noise, the aggressive look, the power. My favourite train class.
Once con a lifetime start!
That’s is the best quality video I’ve seen in a very long time 👍🏻 What a sound firm a super class 37 🤣
Thank you Stevie! I shake naturally as you can see at the start but I wedged myself between the bars ( yes they had 5 metal bars across each door window due to the potential of people sticking their heads out and flailing about! No joke ) and having driven a 37 for my 40th understood when we’d be off. iPhone 5 was what it was filmed on but I’ve you’ve got a good subject then who cares!! Lovely comments, really positive, so appreciated. All the best Paul
What a beast! I loov it! Thanks for sharing this with us.
Tim Mungenast Was a great day out. Thanks for watching!
What a top man you are for filming this and im going to watch your mental health story - very brave and inspirational.
Thank you very much. You never expect to do a film on mental health but if anything can help then I should. All the very best Paul
In 1980 my wife and I were staying in a campsite near the station in Inverness. You could hear these beasties for 20 minutes before they arrived! We travelled to Fort William behind one. And back!
Brilliant experience I would say! This was the closest I got for a week up there. Superb fun and I loved the airbrakes!
My dad used to drive these in the 90s early 2000's. Chester to Holyhead or Birmingham. Went with him numerous times and loved every bit of it. Could hear them for miles away late at that when it was quieter. Class old diesels.
I’d have loved a ride to Holyhead it would have been amazing! Just seems naturally noisier than others!!
Nothing like a dirty diesel.
I drove these on that route too. Bet I know your Dad. Evvo.
Thats incredible!... straight into my faves :)
Thank you. Get yourself up there if you can. The 10.04 from Preston!
Superb😊
Nowt better than a 37 giving it all the guns 😁👍 Watched the video several times now cos I just can't get enough of that beautiful 12CSVT noise!
Pure fluke in one way but grateful to be there! Never seen someone flooring it like that! Ps all the 37 fans were sat down so I took full advantage of no one being next to the window! All the best Paul
WOW! absolutely fantastic video...lovely thrash from my beast 37! this video says it all :)
TrainsFanUk Hope it keeps running till next year. Thanks for joining! P
Wow that is amazing video love the soundtrack 👍
Outstanding video
I remember sleeping in a tent on Roydon camping, virtually alongside the tracks. And by night they started to run freight trans with these engines...
born levensregt Aw it was brilliant to be took back to the 70’s for me with great memories of these engines! Think everyone be going to South Wales now to see them running from Cardiff! Thanks for your comment and watching!
You managed to sleep through that?
@@richardhebden5603 Not really. The waking up was the worst when I realized that again I had been dreaming to be a sleeper....
reminds me of happy days with 37s going through the West Highlands!
Must have been incredible to see that. I was so lucky to see this! Happy Christmas from English Electric!!! Paul
37 on stock, along the coast, with thrash and clag, in the sun !! What a trip, doesn't get much better than that . 👍👍😎😎
It didn’t! Changed at Barrow for another one! 4 in 8 rail rover
the 37s have the best diesel sound ever :D
Watch in my channel videos which is have , you can feel the CHUGGS of diesel alcos from Indian Railway
@@eastdeltarailfansclub9322 i'm not interested in alco's
@X X 20's have also a great sound :)
Anything from the English Electric has a great sound . 37’s are my second favorite loco class of all time behind my No1 the 50’s .. Oh yes cannot beat some Hoover Power 😊👍🏻
It's a good sound although I do prefer the HST Paxman Vallenta scream
God the sound of that beauty
The acceleration on these beasts Is scary ive seen many of one flying around from 0 mph to 50+ mph in a few seconds they're just hell-fire 🔥 loco's 🤩😍🥰
I was hanging on! Great driving mind!!
Considering their age, and the fact they're diesel-electric, they have absolutely superb acceleration and pulling power! British engineering at its finest. Shame all modern trains are not built to last anymore; Built with cheap plastics and poor quality metal.
@BritishTrainspotting Definitely a pleasure to ride behind. I particularly enjoyed the air braking system. Really took me back
Just Fantastic.
Terrific tractor action there. Superb.
Norbert Nedsworth Thank you! Was a brilliant day out!
2021 The class 37s sounds will live on with great video like this
It was a wonderful opportunity to remember the 37’s from when I was a boy. Just didn’t expect the driver to completely floor it!! All the best Paul
awesome view !!
freighttrainsahpassing I got away with this!
My lordz what a belter - if only I had been standing right where you were!
All the 37 fans were sat down behind me having come down on the something like 5.30an from Carlisle so gave it a miss!!!
That was bloody fantastic. Subscribed! 😁
ChopperV Productions Thank you! Top day out!
God damn the filming equipment is good!
Brilliant
Always knew when a 37 was coming past the Crewe branch line near where I live. You could hear it before you could see it. Memories of my childhood. Still makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. Thanks Paul.
All the bashers basically were sat down Daz as they’d got the something like 0550 from Carlisle down. So I had a free window and chance as they were knackered!!! I only filmed it to show my brother. As you sent such a kind and generous message I’ll send the actual whole film it came from which was basically a visit film!! All the very best! Paul
Here it is in context. Paul kzhead.info/sun/kqWOfc-jm3yEnmg/bejne.htmlfeature=shared
@pauljones401 thanks for this Paul.
@@daz4643 there’s some more 37 action! My brother was quite ill ( now better ) and I just wanted to cheer him up Daz.
Helfire! I love how you can see the reflection of the Clag
Simon Lewis it was something! Really glad you enjoyed it! I did!
Rip Roaring Fantastic
I got very lucky and I’m still to find a driver that floored it that long on that service!!
Used to hear these late nights in distance in cardiff,pulling coal to docks...good days,nights rather...brings back memories of childhood...thnx
russell morgan same here from holidays in north Wales. Was a great day out!
My Lordz!!!
He was driving!!!! Actually to clarify I wasn’t quite sure as there was that much smoke!! But quick story. Those trains on the Cumbrian coast were filled in the front coach by bashers. However for some reason they decided to sit this one out and well it’s about one fifth my KZhead channel!!! Paul
Yes that footage comes pretty high on the thrashometer this driver knew his engine and the road leaving Preston
Amazing over 50 years old and these class37s just keep going. Things were better build in those days, and the country was much better run.
Amen to that!
I agree. Our parents' fridge lasted 40 years, but you won't get even 10 out of a new one today.
Start with giving Boris the boot
Who needs "The ride of the Valkeries"? 😂
I love the smell of red diesel in the morning, it smells of victorEE.
I remember these when i was a kid & was terrified when they passed even when stopping. Great vid though thanks. 👍
Ive Made A Video They are big pieces of kit when you’re young!!!
Paul Jones thats an understatement lol
Bloody awesome.......
He did not stop the driver! He just went for it. And all the 37 bashers were just quietly sat in the front coach so I didn’t have to wrestle anyone out of the way! P
Good lord that was massive
chanels Lewis it was an amazing trip for sure
Glad to of been of assistance 💨
Can tell it’s you standing chatting by the loco. Remember you telling me the story about this particular departure....
@@davelewarne6818 There wasn't many decent 37s to drive but Mary held her own on this day. She seemed to have a small burst of energy when I opened the taps 🤣🙈
Outrageous
Terrific
What a MONSTER!!!
very good
What a Syphon!! 🥰
Hell fire
Saw this loco on the WHL in the Autumn of 1985 when it came out of Crewe works after being fitted with ETH
Awesome. I watched the other video of the same pull up by Steve's Gaming and Transport Videos, and I could see your head sticking out :)
MultiMusic I was hanging out it was amazing! Thanks for watching
One word; Proper!
Immense power
1750HP :-)
@@LawnMowersThingsThatMakeNoise Impressive. Always loved the 37s.
Smashing video I’ve subscribed to your channel
Emt43043 Thank you very much. Hope to get more up soon
They will be missed on this route.
They'll be missed everywhere they're not. Lovely machines, at least many heritage railways are giving them homes.
When are they phasing them out on the network?
Great channel and video, i subscribe now !
nice vid, that's me on platform talking to the driver !! my vid as your camera out of the front window !
Phil Berry I really like your films. Just found your film!! Was a great day. Just fun to be loco hauled in such amazing places! All the best Paul
I saw a class37 this week on the Colchester to Clacton line, I nearly crashed the van I was driving getting the window down so I could hear it!
That’s brilliant! Glad you’re ok though but we do love that sound!
Growler, God's own loco...Long may it be so. Accept no substitute.. Here endeth the first lesson.
only recently am I coming to notice many, many trackside e-relays around GB there nowadays
I didn't know you could do an italian tune up on a loco! The load wasn't huge (200 tonnes?) but still skilfull driving to get it notched up so quickly,
Still had another loco on the end which stopped soon after which helped that day.
Makes the heart skip a beat when you hear one of the beasties, wonder what their 0 - 60 time is?
This one certainly had a go!!
Wow
Thats some thrash. Music!
Growlers at work 😊😊
DELICIOUS!
hellfire. did that svc, had 403,
Oh happy days 😎
Why I was so lucky to see it Bud! Too right!!!
Wow!!
Andrew Jones It was! They run in the week normally on the 10.04 from Preston to Barrow. Never thought I'd get the chance to do this but it was mint. The 4 coaches plus the other 37 on the other end gave this some real welly! Thanks for watching and hope you get the chance to do this too. P
Paul Jones Yes,i have done the run many times from Preston to Barrow and sometimes on to Carlisle behind the 37s but this set off is something else!! Thanks for sharing!
Andrew Jones It's great fun! And what a journey! Best introduction to the Lake District I've ever had! Hope you get some more rides when you can. P
Paul Jones Me too!🖒
FUKIN FABULOUS,
Sounds like a demented tractor!
Could someone explain why these engines surge so much all the time? I've heard people say it's to do with something along the lines of turbo lag, but why does it keep doing it? Does the conductor throttle up/down the engine for some reason?
Hi there. My film this and I drove one about 6 years ago. Turbo lag for sure I was told, about 3 seconds from input to response was what I noticed. Plus people have talked about a wheel slip prevention system that affects the bpm so to speak. That’s what I’ve come across. Paul
😊👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🌟
The sound of a 185L turbodiesel at full chat. Noice.
Pleasure to have been there!!!
76 thousand views really!!!
I used to prefer the loco hauled sets before the DBSO's were used. Always guaranteed entertainment at Preston as the rear loco had been idling for nigh on 5 hours. I've seen some and filmed some cracking departures of my own
Nodding Donkey a real shame it’s ended for the moment. Hopefully they’ll maybe do settle and Carlisle is what I’ve heard
one 37 set still operates along with a 68 set. Barrow - Carlisle only now
Pulling north from Platform 5 past Maudland Bank at St Walburges Church.
Massive.
Unexpected an understatement!!!
The driver let her know he was in charge that day.
Still not found any film that had that length of consistent acceleration.
Thrash of thrashes!
0:29 👌
Belter that 401 never fails in giving a good thrash
Class 37 fan superb run and it's still running
Yeah was on 401 last week mate did a cracking job as always thrashing the coast
Class 37 fan Superb! Thanks for commenting and enjoy lots more 37 action! P
Paul Jones will do mate it's such a shame these are getting taken of the coast in may the 37s still do a solid job u got any more trips on them before they gone
Class 37 fan whoah you just made sure I do one before may. Thanks for heads up
When people say they want a Bloody Mary, that thrash isn't what they mean 37716.
I wonder if this still runs? I quite fancy a bit of this action in my summer holiday...
Also, what did you use to attach a camera to the coach?
VehicularBrit Think it still does mon to fri. Supposedly through each summer till 2019
VehicularBrit I didn't! I basically stuck my iPhone 5s out the window/ bars and I just looked through the view finder. These things are definitely running mon to fri fella so go and have a great time!! Thanks for watching!
Ah nice, I thought it was attached to the coach as it was so stable - I've been trying to work out a reliable system to do so for my own videos :) Good to hear they're still running - I'll definitely keep it in mind!
VehicularBrit KZhead capture has a lot to answer for! It's stabilisation is brill! Check the class 37 website and look at I think the data heading on the header and this tells you what has been running 37 wise the day before. Beautiful line though. I did Preston to Carlisle
Probably a novice question so please excuse my ignorance but why when setting off do they 'pulse' the throttle, see. Various videos with them doing this,
Ryan Foreman I think I get what you’re saying. I drove one for my 40th and actually you have no control over that pulse. The engine just does it naturally. They aren’t feathering the throttle. It still moves forward but the engine does work on that cycle.
@@pauljones401 thank you for your reply, yeah I wasn't sure if it was something like that or a way of building up the boost, either way I always love to hear them, they were operating on the Norwich to Lowestoft line when I was holidaying in September. Could always tell it was these beasts over the newer replacement
it to stop wheelslip. A 37 deals with wheelslip by cutting fuel until the wheelslip stops then it reapplies power but if it slips again it will go through the cycle again. If the driver takes no action it will just carry on doing it
All the deltaic engines I've seen on youtube smoke a lot. Is this a feature or just bad maintenance?
Hot oil goes near the exhausters. It’s in the design. Wouldn’t be allowed now!
Beautiful cathedral at 2 minute mark.
Catholic Shrine Church of St Walburge, Grade I listed
Full power from a standing start, and I would have been in front of the boss in my day as a driver!!
I got very lucky with that driver!!
my mates from the states are missing out of this
Michael Sandford if you get the chance do it in the next few months do as it's stopping in may ive been told. Appreciate your comments. P
Paul Jones it was a bit of a joke, I been to Preston over the years when on way to Blackpool and back, last time I was at Blackpool I filmed a class 37 departing Preston its on you tube, thanks for returning the comment, you are the only one tonight and I get so lonely and upset when my phone does not light up
Michael Sandford I think on KZhead the decent thing to do is reply. Certainly going back for 1 more time!
Paul Jones thanks it seems you left two comments, I did return the comment, you must return it please because I get sad and upset when my phone does not light up, this year has been a bad year for me last March I was Nearly killed last spent over two months in hospital l had brain surgery etc some car driver ran me over on my bike and nearly killed me, and he was not charged, I have a long scar on my head and dents become lonely and depressed and sad, Also I have fallen out with one of my best friend on you tube, the Gareth tropper channel, he won't speak to me, because I'm ill, what a so and so
I have heard louder, shake the platform louder however my camera severely filled the sound :(
IamTrains YT just a shame they’ve stopped
Had the vol up a tad below max for this vid( normaly reserved for "Motorhead" vids) will it chug..? yes it will....Deltics no longer on the Port Talbot to Shotton run,so don't hear/see them across the road at Caergwrle bridge.....DB diesel electrics now.
Lemmys bass one of the few things louder!
wish England was England and proud again
I know exactly what you mean... I work in engineering, and its a shadow of the country it usee to be... the fastest diesel loco in the world HST... fastest jetliner in the world Concorde..... the Class 37.. now what have we got, a shitty mini that is not a Mini and owned by BMW . Sad.
@@paulshepherd1348 engineering and heavy industries were sold off in exchange for banking. If you ask me- why was it either or, why did they not keep investing in the engineering too? Now we have little products to boast of . The class 37 it still working after 60years so products were decent at one time. All gone now
Beautiful unrestricted Diesel engine
We used to test them on 1500 ton coal trains up Stormy bank Port Talbot
That must have been incredible. 👍
