Conversely, an EMD just starts.

Really Good at the Smoke Rings 😅

For some reason this reminds me of a Kazahkstanian news program

perfect , Clag and smoke rings, great way to start your day

I was around 9-10 years olf 1 Christmas I managed to sneak into to the sidings at Blackpool North I tried the door on 1 of the Deltics it was unlocked my heart beating like I could see it bouncing around in my chest I started messing with switches pressing buttons the engine started making noise I almost filled my pants running away thinking back how did I manage? Do they not have keys to lock the doors or for the ignition?

smoke rings 🤣

Why do i love this

My favorite loco.

My parents worked and lived there , I was born at Hawick after a train journey to Hawick 10th May 1941 now 83...

I like how it blows rings

What a good thing we don’t have hundreds of these starting every day any more!

This is near me.

Starter motor must have took a hammering starting these beasts

Sounds like it's got asthma!

Smoke rings haha

I feel its pain and im the same every morning I struggle to fire into life😂 What a wonderful sight to see one of these old locos still alive and a testement to British engineering👍

I bet you could cook breakfast on that starter

16 cylinders. They aren’t sure witch one wants to be first ha ha

Absolutely awesome , Class 37 s scared me as a child, now they amaze me . Even Greta Thurnberg would love them , especially a cold start

Four main faults on the 37, Oh Fuck Wully Baxter, translated to oil, fuel, water, blower motors!

I think I can I think I can lol

Good old Mossend, drove into it many times from Motherwell TMD to pick up wagons. Class 37 is still my all time favourite locomotive, cab heaters were shite though!

It looks like the Hammer and cairn are on a hill called Black Preston,is it meant to be a secret,i doubt if that was the purpose.

Good day mate 😂

What makes the loud clonk sound that starts around 1:53?

Great sound, but, u wouldn't be able to effect a quik getaway from a bank robbery. The bobbies would be on u lickety split :-)

I love how they smoke a ciggie first before even thinking about starting 😂❤

that doesn't look like a touch and go, more like a go around

Have a great holiday. Never seen a take off from Liverpool before, great views.

What must be the strain on starter motors and batteries to keep cranking

cool video!!

Not hard to see why the Class 37 is is the greatest little loco that could... My all time favourite...They are beautiful, can go 'anywhere' with a great RA and still in service after many many years. We shall never see the like of these again.

That sound in the beginning could be in a horror movie! 😂😂😂😂😂

Good clean energy.

What type batteries?

Awesome👌🏻

I think that the cylinder bores are rather worn therefore the PSI at TDC is below spec causing sluggish starting and white smoke, the exhaust smoke is ladened with unburnt fuel so it probably would be best to avoid smoking a cigarette with all that white smoke in the air.

How can a three minute clip of film be so sad to watch, yet be so uplifting,, like opening a time capsule if you will.

As a 74 year old who can remember the steam train, these kinds of video are sad in a good way. Sad that a way of life is lost forever, good to see some still care about what we lost. Long may they continue.

Yet another grassy knoll station

Why was this place abandoned? In the old pics there were houses

From the Cross, which track takes you to the hammer please?

With a very heavy workload preserving and restoring old trains, and medicine I take for nerve and joint pain, I keep coming back to this video as a visual of what getting up in the mornings is like. Especially on three or four hours of sleep a night for weeks on end. At least people have what the locomotives don't: Coffee.

Why the diesel is not preheated? Smokes more than a steam loco and causes poisonous gases.

Needs new injectors though.

Enroute, in the middle of nowhere in particular, yet a halfway house, stopping off place to water up, take a rest, change of Locomotive as may be required. Still an idilic rural setting whatever your point of view. Certainly worthy of restoration and some working preservation.

All rather sad, we used to change trains there going to Scarborough for holidays and change again at Newcastle.

Im suprised trains like these dont hsve block heaters for the winter

0:36 huge smoke rings are great!

A poignant reminder of what’s been lost, not just the railway but a thriving community
