Its a big thing in the uk buddy, the old diesel engines were just powerhouses and a huge part of my youth..now all we have are ugly diesel trains with zero character..the engines we had in the uk were fabulous looking beasts...its great that you liked this...i often watch bits about american trains and trucks...great stuff 👍
Thanks dude but I'm not really a trainspotter. Not in the sense that I stand by a line and take down numbers of passing locos. I'm a Basher...and 37's are my beasts. My hobby Is exstinct now as these beauties are all but gone. I don't see the point in trainspotting, but hanging out of the window of a Mk2 coach, right behind a 37 on full thrash with the wind and diesel fumes in yer mush.... Now that's heaven. Hellfire!
Yeah, I remember many times, walking in a drunken state accross the dana to go to the buttermarket at midnught and hearing a 37 pulling through!! mega stuff man.
Stumbled over The Dana, shouting abuse at the Prisoners, drunkenly heading home to Castlefields most weekends lol I even remember doing original conversion of Howard st warehouse aka Buttermarket. Goid old Shrewsbury 👍
Love these beasts good video I miss going round Tinsley tmd/Bescot listening to them taking to each other on tick over 😆 good video of clagg I like 37s kicking shit out everywhere lol 😆
My favourite engine EVER...prefer it in br blue with its yellow nose caps...but i just love the class 37....the 1st model train my dad bought me as a boy in 1978..😪
hahaha "thats the best clag i've ever seen COUGH COUGH COUGH" love it. 37712 was a very claggy machine towards the end of 2002, seem to remember she had turbo problems or a cracked exhaust or both.
problems on the nearside six?! reminds me of when i was a kid and watching the clssic 37's and 47's pull out of bascot marshalling yard fully laden with allegros etc going to longbridge , little did i know i was watching the best days of the railways - todays stuff is all plastic boring efficient characterless crap !
You should've made the trip to Cairns in far North Queensland to witness the QR 1620 class EEs as they slogged it out on the the long Climb up Baron Gorge. The most amazing spectacle ever. Same engine as the Class 37 I believe.
I do my mate...and it takes me right back to the late 70's...where i live in bootle..merseyside we had a containerbase that ferried cargo form the depot to the docks twice every day...it was mostly 47's..but we'd get the odd 25..31..even a hymek one day...but the 37 is my all time favourite...it looks like a train should..sweet man 👍
I loved choaking on diesel fumes in the 80s 90s best times ever for British locomotives on freight as I could always hear a tractor coming from miles away as they was always loud and lively they was and still are one of the best loco's on British railways networks as there's still a good 100 of these bad boys still in existence either preserved or still active on network rail duties!!! Drs are selling some more off again plus a few choppers they will probably go to Harry needle the 37s to West Coast/ian Riley/Harry needle let's wait and see!!!😎
Wish I'd seen that run through Shrews, although I probably heard it! That's all you used to hear late at night there at one time, 37's on the avoiding loop past the abbey, Good days :)
@@oldsynth cool mate...i live by what used to be a container base in liverpool and frequently saw 37s..mostly 47s..the odd 25 and 29...but..when the grand national was staged we had deltics towing the racegoers...it was pure magic for me as a boy..👍
@@oldsynth Never expected for you to respond lol, especially since most old channels tend to not respond to new comments! I'm glad you are still making the effort to respond to your viewers 13 years after you uploaded this video! Dedication at its max mate
The nearside six would be "A" bank my friend,black clag like that is usually a sign that the load regulator isnt set up quite right or turbo problems,another classic vid there Daz,a mate of mine e-mailed me this link,your getting quite a following with the nose ped brigade,lol
I don't know much about trains, sorry, but is 'clag' the train equivelent of a diesel car smoking when the driver accelerates hard? If that's true, do more modern locos have particulate filters the same as modern diesel cars do?
@@oldsynth Wow! I was a train driver in the area back then and saw you many a time with your video camera, plus I seem to remember you doing donuts in the snow,in the station car park lol. Those were the days hey!
Clag = "Rollin Coal" to us here in the United States. I love this video and it's good to see someone else loves watching diesels do what they do best!

Brings me back to the days of loco hauled 37s pulling out of Inverness with great clag. Good to hear most tractors are still in mainline use!
YOU JUST CANT BEAT THE SOUND OF AN EE AT FULL CHAT AND YOUR NARRATIVE MADE MY DAY!!

Cheers man

@@SouthEastTrainspotter I got there in the end dude lol
When a loco gives your stage 4 lung cancer but your still happy.

Can't beat these beasts
Whenever i'd see a 37 on the track i'd always signal to the driver to wind it up, and more often than not they would :)
great vid! I can't resist an expletive or two myself when watching one of these beasties pulling off
This is probably the best video ever.
dangerousandy lol cheers man
Look at that beast and that flat. I think I've just mad a mess
Wow that's amazing, what a 37 show! Driver certainly gave his best shot, and what a shot!! Cheers. Ken
This is the best tractor clagg video I've seen so far!!!🥰😍🤩
Cheers man 😁
Loves the thundering sound as it goes past.
Love it, hellfire!

This guy is a legend
Cool video👍🏼. Damn does that thing burn filthy and inefficient! The Brits should just invest in a few older EMD SD40-2s, call it a day
Quality 🏴👍🏻
well done sir, great video, i wish i was there to smell the exhaust!
Tony Fleetwood cheers bud 👍
With Greta Thunberg at knife-point..... Oooooops!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

My workplace is right next to a railway line, we do occasionally see a '37 used on line testing work, none on freight any more though
the true power of a class 37 growler that noise awesome!!!!!

Great to see such a modern railway of 4-wheelers and 3-link chain couplers. They really did call it done with the Rocket lol.
Absolutely Dreadful! What a monster! 5 stars! Cheers for sending me the link, I wish I'd been there!
Outstanding stuff. Thanks for that I am sitting here tickled by that.
Clag, thrash and tones!
Hellfire mate
brilliant video fellas keeping them coming
Steven Cummings cheers 👍
Nice! These locos rule!

When was the last time that beast saw a workshop? LOL, bloody hellfire!!! :D
Legend.
loving the horn
So much clag!!!!!
Bradonomous oh yes 😊
Amazing
Great footage there. That's a belter! Also like some of your music as well.
love this video mate
@Biigfish559 well as diesel is a light oil !!
my lords the clagg
The perfect location for for a flat.... :)
Wow that was some heavy duty CLAG there!
This would give greenpeace activists a heart attack, awsome catch tho.
@Filmitis If you don't like my vid, then don't watch it KNOB JOCKEY!
You dirty Clag!!!
Love it!!! 37's forever!!
The scheme this engine is wearing reminds me of the old Wisconsin Central livery
F'kin Quality vid mate!! Loving the commentary as well!!!
I am a train 🚆and I approve this video!
Nice to see some clag, brings be back to the days of when my dad drove 56's through Carlisle! However, I do feel you were a bit close to the track.
OMG this was filmed the day I was born!!!!!
Excellent!
Damn you, I was born in 1991
Filmed on my 9th birthday :D
Wish I'd seen that run through Shrews, although I probably heard it! That's all you used to hear late at night there at one time, 37's on the avoiding loop past the abbey, Good days :)
Fantastic vid and glagtastic !!

@PrentonPimp Hellfire all the way. What a beast! Glad you like the vid mate. Daz
I wonder if that old girl is still running
that was a hell of a year 2002, shame i was only 6 XD
holy fucking shit batman thats some serious clag Greenpeace would have gone fucking mental
this is what its all about, TOP VIDEO,
That's how it's done
@19orbelow Cheers mate, glad you liked the vid. Daz
What a beast think il watch it again. 10/10
black clag is the best, thouruoghbread, hard core, not prety little blue clag!
@BXM4C Yeah, they can work in multiple with any other blue star marked loco.
Hellfire indeed....beast!!
just got into loco's they are beasts
What a hellfire machine! Shame they cant clag as much now.
Hellfire indeed mate

@@oldsynth Best thing to come out of EE imo
If your lucky, you might get a 70 leaving Kronospan,,, nowhere near as Claggy though.

@willygrant1971 Glad you like the vid mate
@kenbrowne1947 Yeah, I asked him to give it some beans as he went....and he didn't dissapoint!
Fuckin hell..... Now thats what I call clag .......PMSL Superb.
Clag is similar to reving the bollocks!! off in a car or van. When you rev up a 37, the monster roars into action. Great piece.
If the car or van is diesel. Although an old petrol car could be claggy too on startup with black smoke.
@slendersausage I'd have thought given how black the smoke was, excess fuel rather than oil?
Where was it filmed is it Shrewsbury
Gobowen matey
Brill naration 712 is in the date as well
Thanks
200/5 alco comes to mind!!!!
Jesus what a fucking monster superb catch though mate
I don't know much about trains, sorry, but is 'clag' the train equivelent of a diesel car smoking when the driver accelerates hard? If that's true, do more modern locos have particulate filters the same as modern diesel cars do?
can't beat it matey.
The 37 that thinks its a Black 5!!!! Awesome!
GOOD LAD
Darren,is it you that had an Audi Quatrro at the time in Gobowen?
John Gallagher yes buddy
thanks matey. Daz
Look at the sh*t coming out of that thing ..bloody gorgeous though..
Cheers buddy
@DiddlyDom Cheers mate.
Are you the guy that had an old Audi Quattro?
Yes bud. Still got it

That was me buddy. I've got a few video's on here of the class 37 action in Gobowen when they used to run around the wagons on the old Cambrian line
Shame no 37's do this anymore! :(
Thanks man
