Nope. On closer inspection I think they are the JQAs, so the second lot. Same difference though. The original Railtrack blue stripe still in evidence despite the rust.
Lovely! At 4.45 a 5 set of Autoballasters. Judging from the condition they look like a set from the original conversions. I was project manager for their development and manufacture at RFS for Tiphook and later GE and signed the original contract with Railtrack. Great project, fabulous wagon. Literally a silk purse made out of a sows ear. Spent many a night dropping ballast on WCML upgrade and even more sat in a Heavy Haul 66 all bloody night doing nothing! Now I just run a couple of sets of them in OO😄
Gorgeous footage.
Cracking shot just stunning 😊
Class 37 freight train 🚆 coming through 🎉🎉🎉
Class 37 In Rugby, Warwickshire.
Fucking alarm.
I’m pretty sure that the Class 455 will soon be going as the rest of the Class 701s should be operating on other suburban routes. And for South Western Railway to do a Class 455 farewell tour.
Yes I can’t imagine they will have to long to go with more 701s entering service etc. I’m sure there will be a farewell tour involving the blue and grey one at some point 👍🏻
Brillaint video! I saw her at Dorking West.
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for watching 👍🏻
What a brilliant effort chasing the old girl, some amazing tones and thrash caught too. Fantastic video 😀.
Glad you enjoyed it. Was good fun chasing it about. Such a great sounding train 👌🏻👌🏻🔥
Super coverage of the day and with such excellent sound quality. Thank you for sharing.👍
Glad you enjoyed it and thank you 👍🏻
Brilliant video, i absolutely love the thumbnail
Thank you and glad you like the thumbnail. Was good fun chasing it about etc 👍🏻
Excellent work MCT 👏 👍 👌
Glad you enjoyed it 👍🏻
Super
Agreed 👍🏻
The GBRf Nene Valley Takeover must get the award for the most overpowered passenger haul, brilliant!👍😊
I recon so, but great to see 👍🏻
Awesome!! It's been a while since I was last on UA-cam.. this makes for a great video to return to!! As always with these 37 diaries, there was a ton of thrash and overall just a brilliant collection of clips! Loved the Network Rail bunch getting 37057s UTU set that little bit festive! Absolutely loved this, I'll try my best to catch up with your stuff in the next few days for sure! (As a little recommendation, maybe make the music in your intro a little bit quieter, just so we can hear the trains that little bit better, just a recommendation)
Hey nice to hear from you I wondered where you had gone haha. Glad you like the new look 👍🏻
@mcttrains yeah, it looks great! I've been quite busy with school and exams recently.. I keep trying to get back into the swing of things on here but I've not got very far in that sense... 😅 Anyway, I'm all good in myself, just quite busy and sometimes a little overwhelmed. Nice to hear from you again and all!
Without a doubt the best sounding locomotive on the network. The fact that quite a few are still hard at work earning revenue after all this time is testament to their designers and the men that built them.
I completely agree. Stood the test of time that’s for sure 👍🏻
Nice collection mate! Have to catch up this year :) Hope you had a good festive season
Thanks, you too! Yes we Must try and catch up more this year other than the 7 valley diesel gala haha
MCT, you have brilliant content and you put lots of effort into your works on UA-cam. Don't let the poor views get you down. God bless.
Thank you it means a lot. Yes algorithms can be very cruel. I try and get the videos as best as I can but sometimes I just can’t get them seen no matter how Much I try.. always appreciate any help with shares etc but once again thanks for the kind words 👍🏻
Really have enjoyed this Tuggy series, thank you and well done!👍💖
Glad you enjoyed it 👍
Excellent footage Matt. Liking the new video style as well.
Much appreciated! Glad you enjoy the new look to etc 👍
Where is this exactly? Thanks!
It's up on the Welsh Marches 👍
The first one 60096, I seen it at York on the 9th of November
Awesome, It's a great loco 👍
@@mcttrains it’s sure is!
Did think the thumbnail looked quite diggly
Oh yes haha 👌
Wow! Amazing - hoping to go on that at the Winter gala
Hope you did, its a superb loco 👍
@mcttrains I did, it's a great loco, my southbound was a little late so I got one stop less, still a nice journey though.
Top quality chase as ever! That eruption from Reedham from 407 was epic 👍
Cheers Pal, I had a great day chasing it 👍
With the 37 singing away at the rear. Magnificent 😍
Thank you was a great tour that one ☝️
Nice to see you briefly bud!
@@32AProductions422 Yes you to! And your other pals at Reedham! Just watching your chase with my morning cuppa 🔥👍🏻
Mega video Matt. Back in my neck of the woods again I see. On that day unfortunately I was at work. I enjoyed watching.
Glad you enjoyed it and yeah I wasn’t far from your area I don’t think. Thanks for watching as always !!
"405 never really failed" it failed on Monday 😂
Fails ‘me’ I said 🤣🤣 normally it’s always good for noise when I see it 👍🏻
@mcttrains Yeah it's a great loco one of the finest hard workers isn't it
Ida going to be strange at Waterloo when there gone. I can remember them being rolled out. What a drag it is getting Old
I know I remember them to way back then all in br blue. Sad times 😥
That pull out of Beverly must have sounded incredible in person under the roof! Great video mate 👍
Cheers Luke, yeah it was great to see! Good to catch up with you to 👍🏻
What an amazing video. Those 37s sounded awesome, especially in the last two clips at Bempton and Seamer 😀
Thanks a lot! Yeah was a great day chasing them about 👍🏻
Awesome!
Thank you! Cheers!
Nice set of vids 👌
Thank you 👍🏻
Hiya, superb video, allbeit short n sweet...😀
Thank you glad you enjoyed it
Mganificent catches of the trains coming by and pass, i like it 5 stars. Thumbs uo. Keep up the perfect work, my friend, i just liked and subscribed your channel, Greetings from Portugal to the UK.
Thank you and thanks for watching 👍🏻
@mcttrains no problem, mate
@mcttrains the trains in your country are amazing too.
Great compilation mate, was definitely worth the wait for this video. Roll on part 6 😀
Glad you enjoyed it, eps 6 is already underway.. oh and we have 56302 arriving via Hoo in the next day or so with 051 back to 👍🏻
@mcttrains I certainly did, look forward to part 6 😀. Oooo, need to tick that one off my list too. Thank you for the heads up.
Amazing assortment of clips as ever mate 👌
Glad you enjoyed it mate and thanks again for your help 👍🏻
Great video👍
Thanks as ever for watching and leaving a comment 👍🏻
Was this a pathfinder tour ?
I can’t remember but my hunch is it wasn’t
I enjoyed watching Matt. October I saw 37263 at the SVR Diesel Bash, 37418 at work on the access crossing and also at work delivering 197028 was 37884 and 37601. Thank you for sharing.
Very cool! You had a good month to! Thanks for watching as always 👍🏻
Great vid man, I miss Eastleigh will need to organise a trip down there again soon, maybe we could chase those damn 73's!
It’s certainly a lot busier these days plus with the 56s based here now there’s a lot more going on. Come back down when you can 👍🏻
Best bit hanging on the back and didn't miss a bit all day having to be train locomotive, rescue locomotive and train heat locomotive!! ❤
Absolutely!
Good variety there mate, you caught the amount of locos I'd probably catch in a year in one video 😂. I was at Eastleigh thay day for the 37 and 57.
Nice one and thank you. I’m forever out chasing locos and workings haha. 😛 I’m sure we have bumped into each other and never realised haha 👌🏻👍🏻
Fantastic video Matt. Believe the 37 at the end doesn't have split boxes anymore unfortunately.
No that’s 099 that’s lost the headcode boxes sadly. 057 is the last one remaining to have them 👍🏻
@@mcttrains I got mixed up then. My apologies.
Great video! I love a good 20! 👍
You and me both !!
What a mega month!
Was certainly that 👌🏻👍🏻 thank you for watching 👍🏻
Now we just need to normalise 37s on freight trains again! ;) Superb catch, nice two tone and amazing thrash!!
No worries mate. Have u noticed the pen quarry is running with hired in 66s ? Hope your well, don’t here from you much these days in comments I guess your busy etc 👍🏻
@@mcttrains yeah, it ran on Monday with 66792 or something, didn't it? Sorry mate, I'm alright thanks - been quite stressed with school and whatnot, which is why I've not been on here much at all lately, but other than that I'm fine thanks! Hope you're okay yourself! 👍
@@TrainGuy_2008 Michael just messaged he saw you at Llandudno junction he’s on the rhtt today. He said he swill see you there on the way back 👍🏻
Love these little units - in typical fashion; I get loco hauled RHTT trains but I want MPVs - and you get MPVs but you want loco hauled!! Awesome video; can't wait for Michael to start on my local circuit soon!
@@TrainGuy_2008 56094 and 56302 Start yours tomo 👍🏻 I would swap in a flash !
@@mcttrains oh cool! I won't be seeing it until NEXT weekend, due to some engineering work this weekend and obviously school during the week, but I look forward to seeing it once I can! :)
