Gordon, I'm still enjoying this video. It's like once every three months I have to watch it. I can not even guess how many tons this old girl has hauled around in her under appreciated life.
This is great...I just hooked up my mac to my hifi which has a pair of Wharfedales of the same vintage as this loco...my house is shaking and it's _exactly_ like being right next to this beauty. They must have been made for each other!
one of the most impressive locomotives were built in great britain, i was in the railroad museum of york last year, well for me as german it was a great experance:-D
My guess would be, this being on a small preservation railway, that one of the terminus stations doesn't have a run round loop... So the diesel pulls it one way, and then the Steam loco back the other way. Also gives visitors the opportunity to experience both of these locomotives in full swing!
David Sanderson I'm from the town where the railways were born, where the first passenger train departed from in 1825, can you guess? Don't get it wrong mind
Reply from Dave Cherry re Worsbrough Railways-Sorry. Just seen this. Yes its from a video of the Yorkshire Railways. Its a good hour long. I cannot tell you what its called but I have it here on file. I cannot see your contact name but you can have it if you want. Cheers for your interest Dave Cherry.
Why am I so addicted to this noise? I see I'm at least not alone, however there must be some deep seated reason why I keep coming back to this.........
Mark C I wuld probably say 37s are a smaller version of the 40 and wats pretty strange is wen they say size matters I wuld say not on this occasion cos the 37 I think is a bit more powerful than the 40 I'm not sure tho
Reminds me of my childhood in the 80's. I lived in Kyle of Lochalsh and that's where the rail terminated. You'd hear these locos starting up in the morning.
@Yardieboss That is the governor doing that. Most diesels will do that until the engine warms up to burn all the fuel. When the RPM's fall below a certain point the governor will open the fuel rack to give it more fuel. When the RPMs reach a high point per throttle setting, the governor will reduce the fuel rack thus preventing over revving per given throttle setting when cold. Some diesels stay a steady RPM & just "miss" until warmed up.
Probably to supply steam to heat the carriages. Originally, diesel locos intended for passenger use had small boilers to make steam for heating but these were removed when electrical heating became the norm. I guess it's easier for them to use a steam engine for heat than to refit a boiler to the diesel loco.
It's a much better idea than a cab at one end, if you have a train with an US loco on, and you go from one place, to another, then run around and come back, your cab is at the back of your loco which makes it harder to see, where as we have a cab at each end, making life much easier for all.
after this old girl got up and running from six months of out of service she would not be shut down for 8-12 months. As she warms, her blood thins and she smooths out on a silk bed like a fine German lady.......
Exactly! I have to point out that such a scene has no longer been possible to do for several years now as the area has been sealed off. The reason was that vandals were about to set locomotives on fire but thankfully the police were about at the right time to stop the b@stards and arrest them. Vandalism is the fruit of a sick society and in Germany it is equally as widespread as in the UK. Glad you like the video and thanks for your interest. Pity it was only filmed on Hi 8 cassette and that there was no HD about at the time. Best regards Gordon
"My first car was so long to warm up, the gazoline tank was so small and my parents property was so large that I never reached the exit portal " It is à sentence from à french journalist who had got 200 cars Philippe Bouvard
I'm curious--why do they run it with no load to warm it up? My experience with diesels (granted, much smaller engines that this one) prompts me to load the engine up with a light to moderate load to warm it up. Why not tow a couple of empty cars once all cylinders start firing? Again, I have no experience with locomotive diesels, so keep that in mind.
why does the engine cycle up and down as it warms up? the engine is even searching when the locomotive is moving under the overpass. also why do the older diesels crank over so long before starting and the newer models just fire up?
The loco is in the process of having a water pre heater fitted like the one now fitted to her sister 345 which has made cold starts like this a thing of the past
I wonder if they could develop a simple heater for the engine, so that in cold weather, heating elements are powered from the live rails. An hour before the work day starts, if the outside temperature is cold, a worker comes by and switches on the heaters.
The New Zealand Railways used a loco similar to a Class 37, but with a cab at one end only, called a DG Class, I have a video of one, but it's not as nice looking as a cab at both ends.
@formidable38 A classic example of missing the point. The point being that Britain did produce locomotives that did not smoke - the clag is a generational/design characteristic - ecconomic forces that were promoted in the UK during the '80s put an end to most engineering activity. Ask Brush Traction.
You asked why we Brits didn't copy American loco styles... well, we umm did! If you take a look at the American locomotives from the late 1940's, and early-mid 1950's, those are what we (loosly) styled these on. Hope this helps!
hordelHoror- most of what we're seeing is just the result of a very cold day the same as exhaust out of an auto. Only the black stuff is smoke (clag) and these engines are in splendid shape since there's not a lot of that. Some of the oldies get run into the ground with no maintenance, and blow blue smoke almost all the time. A shame.
I wanted to know why don’t they dig a tunnel and do an extension for the main line Train so they extend the unused abandoned underground stations. Why couldn’t they use the part D78 Stock train doors on the sides and also restructure the front face of the A60 and A62 stock and remix and make them all together and also redesign them overhead line and also make them into 5 cars per unit and also having 2 Disabled Toilets on those 5 cars per unit A60 and A62 stock trains and also convert the A60 and A62 stock trains into a Scania N112, Volvo TD102KF, Volvo B10M, Gardner 6LXC, Gardner 6LXB And Gardner 8LXB Diesel Engines and also put the Loud 7-Speed Voith Gearboxes in the A60 and A62 stock and also modernise the A60 and A62 stock and make it into a 11 car per unit so it could have less doors, more tables, computers and mobile phone chargers. A Stock Trains and also having 8 Disabled Toilets on those A stock trains. why couldn’t we refurbish and modernise the waterloo and city line Triple-Track train tunnel and make it more bigger and extend it to bank station, making it into a Triple-Track Railway Line so those 4 European countries such as Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden to convert the waterloo and city line Triple-Track Train tunnel into an High Speed train. The Third Euro tunnel Triple-Track Train line to make it 8 times better for passengers so they could go from A to B. then put the modernised 11 car per unit A Stock and put them on a bigger modernised waterloo and city line Triple-Track train tunnel so it could go to bank station to those 4 European countries such as Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden. The modernised refurbish 11 cars per unit A stock could be a High Speed The Third Triple-Track Euro Tunnel Train So it is promising and 37 times a lot more possible to do this kind of project that is OK for London Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden. oh by the way, could they also tunnel the Triple-Track Railway Line so it will stop from Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire and Essex so that the Passengers will go to Germany, Italy, Poland and Sweden and also extend the Triple-Track Railway Line from Bank to Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire and Essex Stations so that more people from there could go to Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden Easily. Why couldn't they extend the Piccadilly line and also build a brand-new underground train stations so it could go even further right up to Clapton, Wood Street and also make another brand new tunnel train stations in Chingford and could they extend the DLR. All of the classes 150, 155, 154, 117, 114, 105, 106, will be replaced by all of the Scania N112, Volvo TD102KF, Volvo B10M, Gardner 6LXB, Gardner 6LXC and Gardner 8LXB Diesel five carriages to disabled toilets are air conditioning trains including Highams Park for extend doing roots which is the Piccadilly line and the DLR trains. Could you also convert all of the 1973 stock trains into an air-conditioned maximum speed 78 km/hours (48 MPH) re-refurbished and make it into a 8 cars per unit if that will be alright, and also extend all of the Piccadilly train stations to make more space for all of the extended 8 car per unit 1973 stock air condition trains and can you also build another Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive Companies and they can order Every 17 Octagon and Hexagon shape LNER diagram and unique small no.11 Boilers from those Countries such as Greece, Italy, Poland, and Sweden, can they make Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive speeds by up to 117MPH so you can try and test it on the Original Mainline so it will be much more safer for the Passengers to enjoy the 117MPH speed Limit only for HS2 and Channel Tunnel mainline services, if they needed 16 Carriages Per units can they use those class 55’s, class 40’s and class 43HST Diesel Locomotive’s right at the Back of those 16 Carriages Per Units so they can take over at the Back to let those Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive’s have a rest for those interesting Journeys Please!!, oh can you make all of those Coal Boxes’s 16 Tonnes for all of the 117 MPH Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive’s so the Companies will Understand us PASSENGER’S!! so Please make sure that the Builders can do as they are Told!!

Hmm...why would they copy ours? They've been making theirs for much longer than we have been making ours. For something as simple as a train (in relative terms of course), if it works and continues to work, don't mess with it :)
One of the best "cold starts" I have ever seen on TH-cam - made me shiver just watching it! Plenty of whistling and steam bonus too - well done sir!
Gordon, I'm still enjoying this video. It's like once every three months I have to watch it. I can not even guess how many tons this old girl has hauled around in her under appreciated life.
I wish we had these in Canada. Love the look and sound of them.
Ahhh Smokey old cold start locomotives from England, I just love em.
such an addictive noise love it
This is great...I just hooked up my mac to my hifi which has a pair of Wharfedales of the same vintage as this loco...my house is shaking and it's _exactly_ like being right next to this beauty. They must have been made for each other!
@@caseyjones4849 i spent all day Saturday pulling the bleddin goodness out of meself.😀😀😀
Full on wankathon! 😂
Loved this video as a kid!
one of the most impressive locomotives were built in great britain, i was in the railroad museum of york last year, well for me as german it was a great experance:-D
The nrm is spectacular, an amazing collection of restored engines
And 3... They sound amazing and certain diesels look amazing, class 31s and 08s are my personal favorites.
Listen to that turbo whine. I love this old beast.
My guess would be, this being on a small preservation railway, that one of the terminus stations doesn't have a run round loop... So the diesel pulls it one way, and then the Steam loco back the other way. Also gives visitors the opportunity to experience both of these locomotives in full swing!
All have run round loops mate
these engines are classics, pure 1970s sound
Great sound coupled with great looks!
The best English Electric sound of them all . Great video .
ah yes, the whistler, an engine I've not heard in a long time!
Lack of silencers in the exhaust methinks - gorgeous sound!!!
I enjoy watching them start up and those that leave a bit of clag behind, thank you for sharing
The engine hunts because the engine governer operates on engine oil and while that is still cold, its reactions are sluggish
Think I've watched this 12 times now. Great sound. My first 40 was the D306. Beast.
Sounds so smooth when the revs rise, enjoyable video, thanks for uploading.
is that a turbo whistle . still lovely 2020 . big pistons nice. clag . a thing of the past.
True all of you: amazing machine but what's up with the enchanting hypnotic noise? Love it and leaves me in awe....thanks for video taping it !
Love the sound and the hunting of the big cold diesel. Awesome video.
Love the sound of the 40 and the 20!
David Sanderson I'm from the town where the railways were born, where the first passenger train departed from in 1825, can you guess? Don't get it wrong mind
Stockton or Darlington. And i'm from where the first timetabled service began!
David Sanderson You're wrong on both counts, SHILDON
and the 50s
Brilliant - reminds me of early days on the job in the snow.

Why am I so addicted to this noise? I see I'm at least not alone, however there must be some deep seated reason why I keep coming back to this.........
I worked with these and Class 45,and 46 in the late 1970s into the 80s,there's something special about them. 139 Tons I think.
Thought it was a class 38 ? Shows what I know
+Fearlessjazp Tv International Ltd (Leader Of Hess Trucks)
Sorry I was thinking class 37, okay it's a class 40
Mark C I wuld probably say 37s are a smaller version of the 40 and wats pretty strange is wen they say size matters I wuld say not on this occasion cos the 37 I think is a bit more powerful than the 40 I'm not sure tho
Ben Conway
Well?
Some might say it's not How big it is but how you use it 😜
Mark C oh haha..😆😆
What a Beast since watching your video i love the class 40's now i'm so into class 37's to great video by the way :)
Put this amazing Sound in a loop and sleep like a baby.

Excellent video...love the whistle they make...
Impressive start-up.You could count off each piston as it fired.
Oh noooo...this video is too short, BEAUTIFUL!!!!
Fantastic locos, I love our big diesels
just great to see this,now if only i could have one in my backyard lol,great sound!!!

Originally, diesel locos intended for passenger use had small boilers to make steam for heating but these were removed when electrical heating became the norm.

LMAO! As I started to watch this and advert popped up - Quit smoking with the NHS!
Lol 😂

Towards the end it makes me think of a fire breathing dragon. Awesome sound!
I used to run these in
Auran's Trainz Simulator game, cool little things, I was terrible at that game though lol
Very satisfying sound 😊
absolutely hellfire
Fantastic Cold start !
What a great song
EE in the snow! Good work!
me too. often walk around nearby junction station to see and listen shunters starting and working
You can keep your Azumas, 66s, 68s etc and bring us Br blue/green every time.
Exactly!

Noch ein schönes video👌🏻👍🏿! Keep it up.
is it the starter the wholetime or just a couple cylinders? does something like that have an electric starter or a smaller gas starter motor?
Great "Whistler" sound !!!!
why do these locomotives always sound as they were not running properly in idle?
interesting how the passing train had a steam locomotive on the rear..
The loco is in the process of having a water pre heater fitted like the one now fitted to her sister 345 which has made cold starts like this a thing of the past
Paul Lambert Probably better for it in the long run.
For sure. Will help a lot with the batteries and save wear and tear on the engine
Thats a great idea, water pre heater. Should make it a lot easier to reach operating temp in shorter time.
This can only be good for the environment!! giggle!! =P Cool video!!
Very good video for 2001!
I wonder if they could develop a simple heater for the engine, so that in cold weather, heating elements are powered from the live rails.
An hour before the work day starts, if the outside temperature is cold, a worker comes by and switches on the heaters.
What live rails?
This is diesel powered..it doesn't need or have, live rails!!
love shape of these trains
Looks like it's already running when video started. Beautiful train though
dam takes a while, thought diesels started as quick as a car
They do, almost, with preheating (so called `glow plugs') but these had no preheating.
I believe there is a run-round loop, but it would not be big enough to hold that particular train, being an extra-long special service.
take THAT greenpeace!
Take that Michael Gove!
Didn't know VW did train diesels :P
@@Biigfish559 that is a class 40
Is this BR class 40 still running on preservation? :-).
Foxy313 yes with 2 of her sisters at the East Lancs Railway
Yes but at the moment it has a crack in its crankshaft,hopefully be back running at the end of 2023
East Lanc's railway does have run rounds at each end!
Got to get this as a ringtone for the phone
it's a fine line starting a cold engine and destroying it. that was quite good. in my humble opinion.
How was it being "destroyed" as you so nicely put it?
Terry Rack that's not being destroyed mate that's how they start
Terry Rack it's not hurting the engine wtf
shes ace !!!!
Whats the difference between engines, the manufacturer?
The clags of class 37s lol, if it wasnt for diesels railways wouldnt be here now. That's that.
The New Zealand Railways used a loco similar to a Class 37, but with a cab at one end only, called a DG Class, I have a video of one, but it's not as nice looking as a cab at both ends.
Nice and easy for an EE, all 16 fired up quickly. That unburnt fuel will clear.
Whats the difference between a class 37 and 40 ?
Class 40 is longer and has 16 wheels whereas the 37 has 12 or a total of 6 axles. There are also other differences.
what more could you want
A great video! Thanks!
Beautiful and very interesting video!
Absolutely awesome :) Thanks.
You need a mains-powered engine pre-heater. It would save a lot of wear and tear on the battery.
Poetry in motion
@nivek194 It has a 2000hp engine and 1550hp power at rail

Sorry to disappoint you, but the number indicates a Class 40, which was effectively the predecessor of the Deltic.
Wonderfull; thank you.

pretty sure newer models have glowplugs. I could be very wrong though.
