- Two DRS Class 20/3 (Type 1) diesel Locomotives Nos. 20312 and 20308 start up in the sidings adjacent to York Railway station.
DRS Staff started them up about 2 minutes apart and shut them down again after 5 or 6 minutes .
Filmed on Tuesday 9th October 2012 on a sunny, crisp day in York.
Love the sound of EE turbos spooling up!!!
There's no better sound Nigel. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Cheers - Allan.
Cheers Ken,
I remember seeing my very first ones at Carlisle in 1966 on the freight lines and most were based in Glasgow at that time. I have loved the diesels ever since.
Thanks for commenting......... I seen my first one in May 1966 at Carlisle and have loved these diesel locos every since. They do have a lovely sound :-)
Thank you Rory............ a nice din from my favorite classic diesel locomotives to start the day. Allan.
Very good Allan, certainly a sound that defines a generation of British Traction! All the best! :D
Thanks very much for watching and commenting Ed. Much appreciated.
Good work Allan, very nice video!
Best regards from Croatia :-)

Cheers - Allan. :-)
312 started nice and strong
Thank for watching Steven. Can't believe that was 2012 when I videoed that. Cheers - Allan.
@@allan5919 nice to see em on the mainline its now a thing of the past such a shame one day videos like this are going to show my grand children how things were before the flying school bus lmao
Fantastic sounds! Great video - good job!
Cheers Steve.....glad I hung around.
Thanks for viewing. I waited in the hope they would move off but they were shut down again after 30 minutes.
Yes very happy days indeed and great memories.
Sad to see most of the DRS class 20s gone now with only 3 of the class kept in some sort of running order over the last couple of years for the RHTT season with this year maybe the last ?
It's very sad indeed to see these running in such few numbers now Justin. They are my favourite diesels and cant wait till October to see them on the RHTTs in Yorkshire. It will be a sad day when they are gone forever. Thanks for commenting.
Regards - Allan.
They always been my favourite class and it’s sad how DRS have just left them to rot away in sidings over the years and not take any interest in them.
Thanks Alex......it was a lovely 5 minutes in my life :-)
Hi Allan, must have missed this one! Great sound off the 20s as always. They first started appearing at Polmadie and Eastfield (both Glasgow sheds) around 1962 and by 1968 they were everywhere in Scotland. Thanks for sharing this one. Ken
Some great sounds and clag from those 20s Allan!
Its turbo whistle. Class 20's and class 40's are renowned for it!
The Class 20s are my second favorite loco of all time. (That's a lot coming from an American like myself). They sound great and look good in any paint. How about sending a few to us when y'all are done with 'em. ;)
Thanks for viewing the video and for commenting. I just love class 20s. They are over 55 years old now but there is not many left in the UK now but still a few operational on our main network and of course on private heritage railways. We'd love to send you some but we love 'em so much it probably won't be possible. :-)
Best wishes - Allan. :-)
I must agree with you. The class 20's are known to be used on the UK'S RHTT (Rail Head Treatment Train) which basically clears all the leaves off the track during autumn. They also sound brilliant.
Thanks for watching. Hopefully we see the class 20s on the RHTT workings in the Autumn months.
Regards - Allan.
Where I live, we rarely get RHTT's.
That's quite interesting, as they were often 'criticized' as being very American in design, having a single cab at one end. ( They were nearly always run in pairs nose-to-nose in this country so they could have cabs at front and rear)
Thanks Teddy!
A beautiful sound.
+Piltdownpaul Thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers - Allan.
Hadn't seen this before Allan.Great footage of the Class 20s.....Cheers...Trevor.''
Thanks for watching Trevor. I think I was just changing trains here one morning when I seen a guy approach the locos. I thought I would hang around so glad I did. Cheers - Allan.
Yes Jeff....the clagging starts here.
Music to my ears
Two songbirds in chorus. :)
Thanks for that formidable38
Cheers Callum.......seen three DRS people hanging around these so I thought I would do the same :-)
We're keeping the ones we have sorry chap. But you're more than welcome to take a few hundred of these GM things back. 😁
I take it this is the start of the clagging season. Jeff.
yes I agree.....it a great sound :-)
Your welcome, Clive.
2:54

Thanks for watching. Cheers - Allan. :-)
Cheers Matthew!
Super sound :-)
Hellfire clip Allan!!
Ol' reliables, that's the class 20s for you!
+Whistle Stop 2247 Many thanks for watching the video and for the comments. Still some running after all these years thankfully.
Cheers - Allan.
Yeah, I'm planning on using a class 20 for part of a video series. (Though I live in the US, I'll let you figure out how I'm going to use one)
Thank you :-)
Wicked vid 20s rock
Wicked !!!
Anyone know...is that turbo whistle or cooling fan whistle please?
Turbocharger whistle
Not sure about that one.....sorry.
Lots of thrash
