One of the most aesthetically pleasing locomotives of BR
The Hymeks were probably the best hydraulics on the WR in the 60s/70s - reliable little work horses at home either on a seven or eight coach passenger service or freight. My first encounter with them was in Worcester shed in 1972. There were a dozen in there. Great locos.
No matter the era, the mechanics of the GWR always put the heart & soul into craftsmanship, hasn’t it?
they look like a miniature class 47 I ain't seen one for a long time but I will visit a preserved railway next year and check a few hymeks out! Good video of these old-school locomotives 👏😎
It's been over 40 years since I've seen one of these magnificent engines. I'd entirely forgotten that they even existed before I found your video. Thank you.
A lovely sound from a very underated class of loco.
Beautiful. I would have happily stood there with those blokes, enjoying a Maybach "Vape".....👍👍👍
Interesting fact, this particular Hymek is actually two in one. While being renovated, parts from another Hymek (D7096) were used in its construction.
The 35s were such great looking locos, classic 60s design and I like how so much thought went into the cab side windows, engine compartment windows and grills. They look a bit like a more refined version of the 47.
Yes I agree with that - a double engined CoCo Hymek would have been a really impressive machine. Funny how so many much less 'modern' looking locos were so much more successful than these though.
i agree,..possibly one of the best looking locos of that time, and they had impressive pulling power too.
phill bygrave A bit like our endearingly ugly 25s in the North West ... They were also supposed to have more pulling power than you would expect. But the 35 in comparison really looks like someone genuinely considered the aesthetics of the bodywork.
must say I was just thinking how modern they look for such and old Diesel hydraulic locomotive I grew up in their era and worked for brel at crewe on 37s 47s I do so miss those days
Oliver Wood double-engined Hymek? Like D0280 Falcon? The absolute beautiful loco that looks like a blend of a Hymek and a 47, a real work of art
I don't know why, but I can look at bid diesel engine start up's all day long. Great sound too.
Haha the tractor just slowly passing by with the class 08 was funny
great sound and great steam ;)))
Now that sounds awesome
Love the sound of a v16
The startup reminds me a bit of prop fighter engine. All that's missing are the flames from the exhaust stack!
I still think western 52 class was the big boy in it class twin maybachs just a class act and sound , A true loco fr sure ❤️👍
Considering it was once a wreck and they had to make one good one from D7076/96 it looks superb!Needs a nice set of Blue/Greys to finish it off!
Lovely start up

How I wish I was there too...
These seem to start a lot easier than the ee locos
The Railway Series books knew what they were talking about, saying
diesels of this class have a growling sort of noise when they work.
j'adore les gros moteurs diesel !!!!
Main color on that thing seems to split the difference between blue and green.
Fab Sound 🎼❤️
What power plant were the 35's fitted with when first built? Only I don't remember them sounding like that ? Thanks
Same as this one, Maybach 87 litre V16. Just 50 years older.
76 doesnt have the silencer arrangement that it had from factory(7017 and I believe 18 still do) so the engine noise is much louder
What was the class that went through the picture with that shunter? Was it a 37 or a 40?
37
At Oxford Shed, they used to leave these things ticking over all night, they were such bu**ers to start. Used to lull me to sleep when I lived nearby.
I had no idea 37057 had already been restored
A very Grumpy Fire up from Her Blueness.
Like a Grumpy person or animal waking up, they just need a few minutes to come around.
They sound like planes
Does anyone think the 35 will ever see mainline service again would be good to see a warship too on the mainline again
@@bennickss I wonder if its a reliability thing I've heard a 45 is making a return and 40118 has picked up pace so fingers crossed
Not a chance. Enjoy 35s on heritage lines.
@@jimmillington8299 was there a reason the 35 and the 42 never went back on mainline
Great machine! How many are still working?
4 are preserved, only 2 are currently serviceable, D7017 at West Somerset Railway, and this one D7076 at The East Lancs Railway. D7029 is currently at The Severn Valley Railway undergoing restoration, it has been out of service since 23 July 1987, and is still a long way off running again, details are here www.westernchampion.co.uk/loco-d7029-restoration.php D7018 also at The West Somerset Railway is another long out of service loco, after a major engine failure in 1995, however this loco is expected back into service later this year, probable re-entry into service is the lines (The West Somerset Railway) diesel gala in June. You can keep up to date here www.depg.org/
Wow, thanks alot for the detailed information and links!
Four are preserved, in working order
4 preserved. 3 currently in working order.
Three (D7017, D7018, D7076) with a fourth under works (D7029) with an estimated completion date of 2030
These engines may need at lest five minutes to warm,,ant then may run at medium power,,and ten minutes to apply full power.
And some!!
its like a mini class 47
But better looking and better sounding!
@@jimmillington8299Agreed
I needed to know why they don’t dig a tunnel and do an extension for the main line Train so that they can extend the unused abandoned underground train 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 that includes the class 313, class 314 and class 315 remix and make them all together and also redesign them an overhead line and also make them into Five cars per units and also having three Disabled Toilets on those Five cars per units A60 and A62 stock trains and also convert the A60 and A62 stock trains into a Scania N112, Volvo B10M, Gardner 6LXB, Gardner 6LXC and Gardner 8LXB Diesel Engines and also put the Loud 7-Speed Voith Gearboxes even Loud 8-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Gearboxes in the A60 and A62 stock, class 313, class 314, and class 315 and also modernise the A60 and A62 stock and make it into an 11 car per unit so it could have fewer 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 Larger and extend it to the bank station, making it into a Triple-Track Railway Line so those Five countries such as Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden to convert the waterloo and city line Triple-Track Railway tunnel into a High-Speed Railway lines?
The Third Euro tunnel Triple-Track Railway line to make it 11 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 Five countries such as Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden. The modernised refurbished 11 cars per unit A stock could be a High Speed The Third Triple-Track Euro Tunnel Train So it is promising and 47 times a lot more possible to do this kind of project if that will be OK for London Australia, 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 Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland and Sweden and also extend the Triple-Track Railway Line from the Bank to Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire and Essex Stations so that more people from there could go to Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden more Easily.
Why couldn't they extend the Piccadilly Line and also build brand-new underground train stations so it could go even further right up to Clapton, Wood Street can they also make another brand new underground train station in Chingford and could they extend the Piccadilly Line and the DLR right up to Chingford?
All of the classes 150, 155, 154, 117, 114, 105, and 106, will be replaced by all of the Scania N112, Volvo B10M, Gardner 6LXB, Gardner 6LXC and Gardner 8LXB Diesel Five carriages three disabled toilets are air conditioning trains including Highams Park for extended 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 can they order Every 37 Octagon and Every 17 Hexagon shape LNER diagram unique small no.13 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 142MPH so you can try and test it on the Original Mainline so it will be much more safer for the Passengers to enjoy the 142MPH 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 44’s, class 40’s and class 43HST Diesel Locomotive’s right at the Back of those 18 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 17 Tonnes for all of those 142MPH 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!!!!! And please do something about these very very important Professional ideas Please? Prime Minister of England, Prime Minister of Australia, Prime Minister of Sweden, Prime Minister of Germany, Prime Minister of Italy, Prime Minister of Poland and that Includes the Mayor of London.
What?????
How long did you waste typing all that gibberish up?
What the hell are you saying
Good thing the man on the left has pockets in his trousers.
BR did not supply gloves in those days.
Hello There it is Mr Cannadine T. Boxill-Harris, I have another interesting idea for most of you Class 508, Class 507, Class 313, Class 314 and that also is including those interesting Class 315 Fans out there, rather than scrapping most of those Class 508, Class 507, Class 313's Class 314's including the Class 315's maybe you guys can convert them and including the refurbishment into those Leyland 680 Engine, Volvo B10M Engine, Volvo D10M Engine, Cummins M11 Engine, Gardner 6LXC Engine, Gardner 6LXB Engine, Gardner 8LXB Engine, Class 508 Class 507, Class 313's, Class 314's and the Class 315's and convert all of them into a 2 Carriages and Three Carriages of the Class 508, Class 507, Class 313's, Class 314's and that is including those Class 315's for most of us Class 314's and the Class 315's Diesel Train Fans out there Please? Are you still going to do this interesting type of Project for all of us out there Pretty PLEASE.
Similar engine to the panther and tiger im sure the 52 runs a maybach tiger lump
This engine is a lot bigger than those tank engines
Bear growling
Only RWS readers will get what I mean
Yep.
Beautiful ugly sound
Pair that engine with a Voith transmission and it'll do 2000 hp.
Don't get it, the engine would make the same HP regardless of transmission wouldn't it?
The engine was de-rated for the Hymek, for the loco's planned use, reliability, lower maintenance & fuel costs.
You're thinking of the DB V 169, which ran the engine at 2000hp, & used a gas-turbine in tandem:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DB_Class_V_169
@Vaas Montenegro Interesting ‘cos the SP krauts use the same engines and they make 2000 HP
@@howlingwolven See my comment.
DB ran a much tighter maintenance schedule, because the engine was higher rated.
And as Vaas said, you can't get 2,000hp from a 1,700hp engine, no matter what transmission is used.
Any diesel engine can be set to a range of power outputs within upper and lower limits. It's a question of the intended application, and there are trade offs between reliability, maintenance and fuel costs.
I seem to remember that experiments uprating the engine to 2000bhp output took place on a few Hymeks shortly after introduction, but they were quickly rerated to the nominal 1740bhp service output.
The ones used for banking duties on the Lickey also had their first gears locked out to prevent them from oscillating between gears when in use.
Wonderful locomotives.
How long did she sit there before? A year, or two...? A rediculously sputtering start up, a terrible idle, smoke of all colours drifting around. And the engine in total runs just horribly rough. You'll hardly find a worse working MD 870.
It seems that everybody is an expert on how to start a diesel. Do they actually own one? No, I thought not.
Haha exactly, and it's simple in a car (glow, fire up). These engines have so many procedures I lose track on the informative videos 😂

Uityyy
Blokes are so funny.
I cant imagine ANY woman EVER has watched this for enjoyment 🤣
Can we see what percentage of the views are women?
