Question what does it sound like the pistons are slapping?

does the driver have to 'hold the button in' all that time?

Westbury?

Excellent 👍👍

I'm probably going to take a lot of flack for this, but I fail to see the appeal of these old Deltic Locomotives. They run rich, they pulsate, and they throw plumes of smoke. If the US had locomotives like the Deltics, the USEPA would be imposing multi-million fines upon the Owners of the Class-1 Railroads.

As of today none of the Eurostars had ever come here again

Starting to understand why these locos are so problematic ! Extremely sensitive computer controlled systems but on engine start up all the electrics bomb 😂

The best thing to do in this case is to rev up the engine. The non -firing cylinders are suffering terribly of the totally wet cilinder walls, and the few that did fire are working at a very high fuelling to keep the engine at the set speed. The cilinders start firing once the required end compression temperature is reached. Rather than waiting for the engine to warm up it is better to rev the engine up, the boost pressure increases the end compression temperature and will make them alive, also releasing the other cylinders of the very high fuelling hence the terrible knocking sound.

I was there

Great vid.. years of audio / video recording memories

Tractortastic!!!!!!.

I like Tugs!!!!! chuffing coughing ,one or two cylinders knocking like a slapper in a hotel room, it is cruel to park a Tug out in the cold.

What happened to the rear locomotive pantograph?

Just the sound I used to hear through Doncaster in eighties. Thrashing with the whistle.

Pretty rare as this was perhaps the only time a NOL Eurostar set ever used the WCML, with most services running up to Leeds/York via Doncaster

Some lovely engines

As an engineer this makes me want to cry....

I think i know the driver.

Brutal! Loved it, thanks for uploading. I love seeing 60s. 8 gigantic pistons making crazy power.

Where are the 58s now I know there's a couple in restoration didn't they go abroad?

Knock knock.

Muy buen video 👌✔️

Great locos to drive if you knew how to anticipate the wheelslip. Quieter than a 56 but just as good,if not marginally better. Withdrawn far to soon for political reasons.

Don't you just love the way the 58 accelerated quicker than the HST! Miss driving these superb locos. Withdrawn far to soon, & for no reason whatsoever other than politics within the rail industry. But, here we are in 2021, & 30 locos 'might' be heading back home!

This was the year of the last year of virgin loco hauled to ramsgate before the voyagers take over along with the pendolinos

0:42

I'd say it needs a re-ring..

89mph at the time and great to see and hear.

Hello, I'm doing history Video on this loco 37042 could I use this footage? with full credit to you on screen and in description. Regards Thomas

Busy line

Really good video! Any idea on the headcode or timings for the hamworthy steel?

Great shot! I've subscribed! I saw her at Taplow!

Excellent catch

Could listen to that all day!👍👍

how do they link the controls?

Can’t be good for the main/big end bearings?

WHY does anyone want to preserve one of these? Its not exactly a 37, 40, 56, 55, 52 or anything worth keeping?

Cool train-

Pity the power plant didn’t survive. It would have been interesting to see it even if it couldn’t have been run.

Oh the clag, and the noise to go with the clag, double delight, what a vid, absolute music to my ears, and a joy for the eye's

I can’t believe it’s 2020 and we still have English electric locomotives kicking about

That must have been close to 100mph

Great vid.

And now it's all gone. Shameful. Bloody tree huggers and EU Directives are responsible, at least we know who to blame when the inevitable power cuts accompany the next hard winter. 😡😡😡

Most beautiful startup ever

Nice catch!

does the lead engine control the 2nd one?

any idea why the 373 was there?
