    Now this is what you call an epic video, very still, HD, with the train even slowing down to give a good thrash! This is THE definition of a train video! Like + Fav mate keep it up!

    A big thank you to freightliner for buying these locos.Compared to a 66 shed these are proper locos.

    Day setting. Secondman Side Headlight/Drivers side marker.
    Night Setting: Secondman Side Marker/Drivers side Headlight.
    Night setting to avoid dazzling oncoming drivers but also provides extra lighting to lineside signs.
    However lights and tailights on trains are there for the train to be seen as complete and not split in traffic.

    Thats the daylight running lights, when its dark, the left is brightest and is the night mode to light up the left side, so as to illuminate trackside signs on the left whilst also not blinding the drivers of other trains approaching from the other way.

    Brilliant, must try and catch a 70 soon!

  • @hakeemspiveyakabusforcejesus

    These sound a little bit like the old Valenta HSTs you guys used to have. The ones that used to scream on departure all the time. Those also used to sound similar to VIA Rail Canada's LRC Locomotives (except those had the ALCO 251 Prime Mover). Built by General Electric, right here in the U.S.A. (Erie, Pennsylvania).

    @TheBritishLegions the operating code, 4 means it can run at 75 MPH

    so much for modern stuff being cleaner for the air!
    bloody GE, in america, many regard GE stuff as very poor especially compared to EMD/GM stuff.

  • @mixmam1
    @mixmam1 Před 12 lety +1

    Do you use a freight timetable for these? Or is there a free option to work freight runs + headcodes etc? great vid btw!

    Clag??? All diesels make a little smoke when under load. This is not "blot the Sun out" type of smoke when I hear/see the word "Clag"

  • @HSTHoward

    Thrash? Clag? Ever thought of going into advertising?

  • @soundseeker63
    @soundseeker63 Před 11 lety +1

    Manages the spectacular feat of making the class 66s look rather attractive and the class 90s, a vision of clean flowing loveliness!!!
    I wonder how many attempts it took for them to come up with something so ghastly looking!? The livery doesn't help either. Plus they are not even British.
    Take them away!
