- A bit of entertainment for people stuck indoors during lockdown; a compilation of Class 37 clips taken from 2012 - 2020 showing the class at work on a variety of duties all over the country. They're not put together in a particular order but I've tried to pick the clips I have which are the most entertaining. I hope you enjoy watching it as much as I enjoyed putting it together.

37716 - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Always loved the fact that they sound so throaty & full of grunt but the horn sounds like a squeaky toy hammer.
Without doubt one of the best Class 37 compilations I've seen. Even the scenery is stunning but your audio is second to none - every grunt from these old growlers is reproduced in all it's savagery even long after they've passed from view. Totally mesmerising, top job!
Love the description “Old Growlers”.
Music to my ears & those engines are the best thrash hands down 🇬🇧👏👍
Wonderful viewing.
Absolutely stunning videography, sound quality and editing are amazing. Thank you for sharing!
Put together the thrashing and clanging, the horn, the beautiful UK countryside, and the lockdown, and what you have is the perfect video of all time; thanks so much for coming up with the idea. Watching it from the states makes all the more wonderful.
And the clag
This is a carbon copy of what I was going to write. Very good video.
I have just discovered 37 videos. Glorious.
Wonderful quality vid. I can smell the diesel thrash.
Brilliant thank you so much for sharing this, especially the bit where you left the sound to linger until the sheep took over. That throaty throb bellow of the 37 has, for me at least therapeutic qualities.
Enough to set car alarms off!!
There's nothing like a 37 in full song
thats the first 3hr plus vid i have ever watched on YT
Flipping heck, more thrash in here than a Slayer concert.
What a superb collation this is-the best tribute to the 37s you could wish for i appreciate all the work and the hours that went into this i watch it over and over thank you Tutankahmun for the best on the net
Glad you enjoyed it
Excellent viewing loved the rannoch viaduct scene
Absolute bliss,thank you for posting.
Best sounding diesel locomotive in the world ..
The thrash is epic
The thrash on here is immense and unruly but I love it!!!!
One of the best videos available Many thanks
These 37 two strokes seem to accelerate quickly at such low rpm the torque must be insane ...we never had anything like this in North America..
These are 4 strokes
These videos are fantastic. I'd be interested to know what camera/ microphone setup you have used, the range is phenomenal!
The sequence starting 3.42 is poetic.
3:42 if you need to edit it
Such a distinctive sound, make the most of it, all be electric soon😱
4:15 As a child this was a regular sound for me. You could hear it before you could see it 🤣 the Crewe branch line was down the road from me with regular freight passing at all hours. Typical Class 37 sound. Raw unadulterated power.
Me too - especially the overnight freight trains on the Blackburn to Clitheroe stretch. Often woke to hear that strangely comforting sound.
Me too; I grew up near the ECML in York, the 37s could be heard from a long way off!
Looks like you put your lockdown to good use, everyone I know either took up running or alcoholism 😉 great video to chill out to
Thank you
Awsome😊😊
Remarkable at 6 minutes or so...
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ video 📹 😎👍
HELLFIRE
Can someone explain when these class 37 are used push and pull how the power output is synchronized?
Why was there exhaust coming out of the rear carriage at Gleneagles? 2:50:33
Generator car doing its thing
💚🚂💨💨
Why do 37 drivers keep blipping the throttle & backing off all the time, even when accelerating, why not just floor it?
My thoughts as well. Assuming to avoid slipping?
They're trying to make it sound as if they're operating a thrashing machine; it's a British thing.
To prevent overloading power and also sounds mega
one napier deltic is good but 2 is better LOL
1.17.40 - launch control. 😵
14:10 Why were they using two engines on 4 or 5 coaches?
Speed maybe
backwards and forwards,..saves running around ant the terminus
Which station is 1:56:39 please? Thanks so much for this video :)
It's Askam in Furness - I've just realised I never captioned that clip! d'oh!
@@tutankahmun Thanks! Think that was the only one you didn't caption. I liked the Jackdaws (?) in the background
Why on and off the throttle?
Sometimes it's he driver doing it, on most occasions though it's an automatic anti-wheelslip function. When the loco detects that it's wheelslipping (usually due to the amps falling quickly due to the decreased torque) the power is automatically shut off and will then come back in again. Some drivers will ease the power back so that the power doesn't come back in at full power (and usually cause the loco to slip again). Other drivers however will just leave the throttle wide open and let the anti-slip protection do all the work.
