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 Withdrawn far to soon, & for no reason whatsoever other than politics within the rail industry.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!
Ah fond memories of when I worked at Staveley Chemicals. Barrow Hill shed not far away. The line from "The Old Road" ran past the works and onto Markham Pit, Bolsover Pit , Coalite, Seymour Sidings, Oxcroft Washery and the line through Clowne onto Creswell. (This line also at one time served the works with the "Summit Sidings" (Lifted and outcropped ) This was the main hangout for Bones
Phwoar! Never seen a 58 working before so that noise was a nice surprise! Mind you I also enjoyed, as an HST man, the 'proper' HST action too, a nice throwback to my early days on the scene :-D
A splendid video of one of these sadly departed locomotives. Would you have any objection if I were to use fragments of the audio from this and other of your videos as sound effects in a free, open-source non-commercial computer game called Simutrans under the Artistic Licence 1.0? This clip is particularly useful, as it is a good, clean recording of a class 58 pulling away from a stand. I should happily credit you, of course. opensource.org/licenses/Artistic-1.0

epic valenta thrash at the start, great catch! never known a 58 power away with so much drama, noise and surprising acceleration!
I have never heard a 58 with proper thash before. Great!!!
Very nice! I'm a recent convert to the 58s and I'm glad I am, they sound marvellous. Nearly as good as that Valenta roar! ;)
Great Valenta scream from that HST as well.
Really good video! Any idea on the headcode or timings for the hamworthy steel?
My word. That HST sounded good but the 58 wasn't too shabby either.
never heard a 58 before! But my lordss did that get a decent speed off the mark! like from me!
