Those class 37's can hook up to anything with a little bit of modification, excellent workhorses even after so many years of service
This video was taking in 2020, I can't believe you guys across the pond still use hooks to pull your trans........
@@fishfighter2 37 hooked to Flirt with a Scharfenberg coupler though?
@@fishfighter2 The Class 37 first came out in 1960 they're old girls.
@@MrStabby19812 I know that, it's just every time I see them hook those trains up I get word for the people doing the job. Also I need to look and see what the weight limit on those couplers are. It probably doesn't have to be as high because I do not believe you guys over there are allowed to run long trains like us. I remember watching the video about the longest train in Germany, and it was only like 30-something cars.
@@fishfighter2 ua-cam.com/video/kgFZJmKA0JA/v-deo.html
One 1600/1700/1800 from Alstom for 60 cars 🙃😉
I love how they have to keep 55 year old locos operational to rescue the new ones when they get stuck in a reboot loop or whatever
That's what happens when you run everything on Windows !
The way the 37s are going they may well see out the azumas which are already cracking and failing only a few years into service
@@bennickss exactly the class 37 is truly a brilliant locomotive a sign of excellent build quality by English Electric that they are surviving in 2021 from there introduction in 1961
Yes, because 37s never needed to recover older trains that failed... It's only new trains that fail after all.
Before the class 37 was steam. Let that sink in how old this locomotive type is
What a beautiful sound the "37" makes, both on idle and powering up.
It always amazes me how quickly those British Diesels pick up speed like nothing
They were designed for mixed traffic - passenger and freight. What you end up with is freight torque and passenger acceleration (especially when you're pulling a light EMU).
Our trains are also a lot lighter, and smaller than America.
The class 37's are amazing, but they exist in a completely different environment to over in the states. You guys pull way bigger, longer and heavier trains. The class 37 wouldnt stand a chance against some of your behemoths.
@@ryanchapman2636 Yeah, it would probably take 4 or 5 of the old ladies to move 70 US coal wagons.
@@altern8tive 😆😆
Im quite amazed by that adapter between the different couplers. Strong enough to take the force of a train but light enough to fit without hoists. Well done to whoever designed that.
Never seen an adapter being used before so thanks for sharing.
Like connecting a Scart socket to a USB C. 😬😊👍🏻
That acceleration is bloody impressive!
Since the 37s were designed for heavy freight, a couple of light coaches is nothing so yes it would accelerate quickly.
Not really. It's only pushing a locomotive and 3 coaches. It's not that much weight.
@@UltraMagaFan It is impressive to see such a heavy machine get moving that quickly compared to what we normally see on the tracks with average commuter trains. Fully aware that it’s built for moving heavier loads, I wasn’t born yesterday.
@@a20axf Honestly, I didn't even consider the fact that locomotives weigh over 100,000 pounds. It flew over my head. I take that back.
The BR Class 37 is like the US's SD40-2. It just keeps on ticking, no matter how old it gets.
yep, would be nice to see more F series units do the same.
Hah. Good comparison for those of us that aren’t familiar with the UK locomotives
That reminds me of the V12 diesel from the EMD. One can't mistake that noise
That locomotive reminds me of the Queensland Rail 1170 class locomotive, extremely similar sounds to that BR Class 37! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queensland_Rail#/media/File:1170__-Redbank-__17_August_1988.jpg *Edit: Tried to fix link so it would link properly, sorry about the failed edit I guess I don't know how UA-cam works.* If anyone knows how I should fix the link so it doesn't show the strikeout and shows the whole link, please let me know!

@@bigman10239 F Units, as gorgeous as they are, are maintenance nightmares. When something fails, even as reliable as they are, all the work must be done internally, rather than externally on a modern cab unit.

Lol and underrated comment 🤣
In the train world - a deltec loco rescuing a pre 2020 DMU, this was quite early in the COVID-19 pandemic as you see at - 4:21, only the office worker had a dust mask on, the others weren’t wearing them = when wearing a mask was optional, not compulsory 🙂
@@samuelfellows6923 you really just had to go and ruin the moment didn’t you
My sentiments exactly!
@@joellewellyn8504 I'm glad he didn't mention the yellow mask 😷 on the deltec...! 👊🏼 😆
When you break down in your new top of the range vehicle and the mechanic turns up in his old 1960's pick-up.
Andromeda (37608) looks in very good nick for the equivalent of A 1960s pick. Up!
The engineers that first designed the Class 37 must be really proud of themselves for making a machine that would see multiple eras of British Rail, and be a fundamental part of keeping the tracks running for literal decades!
Brilliant video. Loved the stadler drivers expression when coupling up like ‘coupling looks a bit low, oh it’s good!’ 😆
The hip thrust sealed it.
re-watched that bit several for the coupling and more so the guys face that you read what he is thinking 😆
the power in that diesel is very impressive. looking at that kids on platform between the trains was either busting for a piss or just damm well chuffed.
Could've been both. 😉
@@SpeccyMan was😁

Love the sound of the class 37 pulling away , there’s plenty of life in them yet
I'll never get tired of listening to EEv12 idle hunt.
Epic catch, with a hellfire ending
NOTHING! Beats the sound of a 37 ticking over! NOTHING!!! So satisfying 🥰
It's a beautiful sound, I could listen to it all day long!
Every depot should have a 37 for emergencies.
Well, that was an interesting video, clever bit of kit to couple up, and the sound of the 37 ticking over, lovely vintage sound, old school and new
Pleasing to see a class 37 “Old Timer” to the rescue of modern stuff.
"Son, you may be fast and strong, but you haven't seen the things I've seen throughout my life..."
It's amazing that the track infrastructure, including the signal box, to allow the line switch is still in place after so many years of efficiency rationalisation programmes.
The Wymondham South signal box was decommissioned in about 2012, and switching is now controlled from Cambridge. However, it has been Grade II listed, as it was built in 1877 and is the oldest surviving example of a GER signal box. The lever frame is intact, but not connected. The junction off to the right is the link to the Mid Norfolk Railway.
Lovely video. Great to see the 37s still earning their keep after all these years.
One of the old reliables come to the rescue of a stranded modern train and pulled away with it easily. Martin. (Thailand)
37’s don’t actually move...they rotate the earth beneath them!
Such a mighty machine needs more manly windscreen wipers and horns though...
Agreed. I think the horn on my bike has more balls. But I won't live to see my bike the age of that great loco.
37's... CLASSIC
I will literally cry when 37s finally go...
37’s were supposed to be scrapped in the 80’s...but Death was too scared to tell them!!! Long live the Mighty Tractor!!!
You can't wear them out unlike the flimsy rubbish made now.
I think a american train horn would go on a deltic very well
Love the Class 37! Great to see these old ladies still in action, love the livery as well
The sound of that loco is so cooool, power up, drop down, power up, drop down,....lika an 1980 Zetor tractor...
It's not for nothing Class 37's are nicknamed Tractors :)
I love the sound when it’s idling but why does it throttle up and down like that? Vacuum leak somewhere or is that how they all sound?
@@DK-nv9zu it's called "hunting" and here's why it happens. www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=www.irjet.net/archives/V4/i11/IRJET-V4I11246.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwjWh_O-_qTuAhWlnVwKHaMjAUIQFjABegQIAhAF&usg=AOvVaw2b0tI1FWQA5cpxPbrIqtFC
Great film Charlie with a wonderful sound of the Class 37 in action. Interesting to watch the coupler being fitted and all in HD...thanks for posting it for us to learn and enjoy
Superbly filmed and captioned
Steven Quy cheers!
The kid in the background with the red jacket is a class of its own
I love those Class 37's. My best friend Clive's dad used to drive trains from Treherbert Station. In the early 70's when we were just 11 or 12, he used to let me and Clive go in the cab with him to Treorchy or Ton Pentre (to save us walking) and sometimes to Pontypridd to save us (catching a train). Going in these though was what I always loved the most - huge, Green, Noisy and beautiful. I've loved them ever since.
Professional men at work! Thx from Finland.
Doesn't say much for 21st century technology when a 50 year old loco has to come to it's rescue!
60 year old now!
a sign of what's to come, the world wants to go with electric/hydrogen or 21st century technology and yet the older counterparts like this video shows are much more substainable ...its the same with the buses the dennis darts/metros/leylands actually do better than the new electric or modern buses.
@@270687carl I'm sure they do, and of course you have the data to back that up, because you're not just basing it on confirmation bias?
@@jackster2568 I bet they forgot when the steam locos had to rescue these diesels as well. But it always happens when something new comes around.
@@270687carl Electric trains have existed in some form since the very late 1800s? The real problem with new technology is people like you, as the people below have pointed out. You just want to focus on every time the new technology goes wrong. Imagine if NASA and the Soviet space program gave up after the FIRST failed rocket launch?
Can't help wondering if the Stadler will still be operational when it's nearly 60 years old... 37608 was built in 1961 :)
...naturally recycled by wind and rain. They're build them for *that* now.
Very interesting video, with a fantastic class 37 too, thanks for sharing
Oh no, the fat controller has lost his hat!
Andromeda may be old, but she's still got plenty of life left in her. Don't worry Stadler, Mummy's got you!
Take the Blender to the boneyard where it belongs,!!!.
@@basiltaylor8910 How soon they forget. Ages ago, when broken down class 37's were being rescued by steam engines they said the same thing. This is just the way things happen, sometimes.
@@mikekean8344 ,That is maybe so,but the failure of then the new diesels, is all down to the British Transport Commission,s Arrogance ,Incompetence,and stupidity.Forcing the new traction into service before all of the bugs,teething troubles have been ironed out ,and adequate servicing repair facilities up and running with maker,s trained staff . Before putting anything into intensive service ,be it a mobility scooter ,or a 'Box Boat' Container Ship. You test, test ,test,until it is right and fit for purpose.
@@basiltaylor8910 Yeah. No cares about quality anymore. It's all about money and more's the pity.
@@mikekean8344 You are so right!!, most of our multiple unit trains are bought from Euronics or Curry,s PC World. The latest generation of so called multiple unit trains are designed by cretins in white shirts who have not a f----g clue in how to design a good DMU . GOD BLESS MET CAM CLASS 101,s!!! Built like a brick shit house.
Interesting video Thanks Loved the 37's from the day they first got delivered to BR and still needed to rescue modern rubbish. Great to have someone like ROG who keeps them in excellent condition. Remember going to Mossend to see and hear the triple headers powering out of the yard up into Ravenscraig steel works awesome
When you gotta call your Pops to rescue your new fangled contraption 🤣🤣🤣🥰🥰🥰
Personally I love the 755s, for anyone trying to make fun of it bear in mind that through history new trains have always had snags and other issues, and actually if they were as unreliable as you say they are this would be a daily occurrence, and yet it isn't because they are able to take on most of GA's regional services without a problem.
Yeah the 745s and 755s were very much needed
True - there are always snags when new trains come out. Still, when you see a new train like that being rescued by an old locomotive...well you have to laugh!
@@tom201090 but that’s because the class 37 is a quality loco, but let’s not forget the many many BR diesels that where next to useless.
The bean counter: You don't need all these old locos and crews sitting around doing nothing.
The bean counter on the train home thats broken down: where's the rescue? I have been sitting here for hours with no bar, no air-conditioning and in the middle of nowhere.
They just send another one of our stadlers and drag it back here in Austin.
Aye, what a right Norbert he is!
The bean counter would be driving his car home and encouraging others to do the same.
Love it. The 37 sounds great. It's a beast that is.
I don’t know why I’m here, but what a fascinating video. Right time, right place and all that.
Brilliant video. I was really impressed with the appearance of the 37 which was neigh on immaculate
Shows what lot of love and care can do to the ol' girl 🙂
Shows how the beautiful tractors can still operate in the modern day!
Blimey! Pushed that other train like it was a toy. Such graceful power! 😄
DAMN the way the old gal picked up speed when first pushing the stricken train out of the station! Bet the grand old lady was thinking "I thought we were here to push a train? You sure there's anything attached to me? Cos I can't feel a thing" LOL
I love videos of really modern, young trains being rescued by members of the old guard. Goes to show just cos something has some age to it, doesn't mean it's even close to "past it" or not worthy of being used. Things like this beautiful 37 were built to LAST, unlike today's modern garbage!!
lol - the guy in the background dances his way through life
I do!
I think he needs a wee wee but frightened he’ll miss something
@@josephlambert9528 Man knows
Good to see a class 37 still on national rail,rather than see them, than a lot of the modern locomotives.
Nothing like the beautiful sound of an EE.
It is becoming a rarity down here in Australia nowadays :-(
Nice to see 40-50 years old technology comes to rescue new technology. Great video. Regards mark
Leave it to 'Grandad' to show the Young Upstart how it's done :)
I’m just imagining those two engines having a convo. Lol.
Broken down again?
Yes Grandad! Sorry
13:22 "Thanks for watching" - Well, thank you for filming and uploading this !
my god, the purr and power are amazing
Great to see railway safety at work in the way it has from time almost immemorial. Some detonators and a red flag would be handy on a smart motorway with no hard shoulder .
The owners of Andromeda (37608) have her looking well. Brilliant video.
Nice to see there will always be need for locomotives in this unit world. Driver gave it some thrash too 👍😊 well done great capture 👍😊
9:13 See the kid with one hand on his ear and other waving l used to do that when I was little and now I see how adorable it is
I’ve been a train driver for 10 years, never had to use detonators, very interesting to see, great video!
never heard of it before
Seemed like a waste of detonators to me.
It seemed complete overkill to me ..... a straight line and no sign of any mist or fog.
@@Martindyna Might have been company regs. Fogs can descend with little to no warning over there.
I've heard of such from railroad history books. I'm wondering why they were expended, couldn't they have been picked back up instead of simply run over and detonated?
Great video Classic Class 37 Rescuing a new Generation of failed units Like Grandad coming to the rescue of his Grandson ,Great sound of the Tractors 🤩💕❤️💝
2:21 - FLIRT Driver: 'Oh, by the way did you bring the special coupling so you can attach your 37 to my 755.' 37 Driver: 'Ah. I may need to go back to Norwich...oh hang on there is one here from the last time I recovered one of these!' 12:38 - 37 Locomotive [Singing] '#Good Old British Diesel Train, rescues the Swiss-Polish Bi-Mode train again' 755 FLIRT - 'Yeah yeah whatever. Just take me back to Crown Point!'
That was an incredible lucky break for the railway geek who just happened to bring his camera out with him.
That diesel loco was made of pretty powerful stuff, I bet it never even felt the weight of the broken down train it had to pull.
Brilliant video, well shot 👍👍👍
Thanks for capturing and uploading this for us. I love the Class 37.
That dude in the background 😂 stand still ffs!!!!
Good to see a EE Cl 37 still serving after being 60yrs young!
Great video.
Oh for the old railway companies to have standardised on knuckle couplers, then only one minute to couple up and connect air hoses.
A 'Tractor' rescuing a 'Moulinex Blender' god bless English Electric.
Amen to that, ol'chap!
@@jayswarrow1196 Thank you for the comment , and less of the old, am not ready for the crem just yet. Most of the crap running on our rail network, barely fit for purpose ,and bought in bulk from'Euronics or Currys, PC World'. Ably demonstrated in the video of the Trusty Tractor rescuing said deceased 'Moulinex ' Blender.
Sadly nowadays , our locos and rolling stock are designed by geeky snot nosed skid marks in sharp suits ,who have not a f---g clue in how to design build a decent loco ,or multiple unit train .
'Met Camm 101,s'' Derby Lightweights' noisy smelly,and rough but go on for ever. Because cats and kittens , they were not made from re cycled Zanussi Washing machines and invalid scooters. Surely you have seen the 'Galloping Tampax' Virgin Atlantic,s Pendolinos,okay they can tilt and take curves faster than an original 'Jeremy Paxman ' 125 HST, but bloody awful to look at ,designed by a six year old at infant school.
@@basiltaylor8910 sadly you are correct. It's all about money with these people anymore! The blokes at the top just don't care about producing quality locos or anything else for that matter! Piss on them!
Great video! There's something strangely satisfying about seeing the loco couple up to the unit!

The stadler isn’t a loco it’s a multiple unit. Please gain some brain cells before commenting.
@@TA-yt1qy No need for that tone of language. Get some manners before commenting, you pathetic nerd.
@@TheMusicalElitist look who’s using “that tone” now! :D sorry I struck a nerve, but please grow a pair :)
@@TA-yt1qy You have issues mate !
Pipe down mister, as much as you don't want it to that "toy loco" is pathing way for the future. Unless you think DMUs serving on lines that are half electrified is more efficient than a Bi-Mode DEMU using it's pantograph on the GEML and Greater Northern lines and switching to diesel only on unelectrified sections?
I can never seem to get behind the whole "Old good new bad" "Look at this *new* train breaking down! Typical..." type argument, personally Diesel locomotives (especially the 37), and DMUs will have my heart but to resent their replacements for, replacing them is daft and is a backwards way of thinking.
Fabulous video,you just can't beat that English Electric sound!!
Excellent video..! Shame Class 40s gone, I loved them as a Kid ☺
Well, I can tell you from experience that this clearly is much easier to fit than the emergency couplers for the 153/156/158/170's. It normally took a two man lift to hook it onto your rescue loco, making sure the alignment is exact when you shunt onto the dead set.
wow she sounds good that turbo whistle
Excellent video, nicely captured and well presented - very informative. Wouldn't fancy that job on a cold winter's night!
Cheers! No it does look like it could get a little chilly! 😂
Ahh gotta love the class 37
Love the bark when the throttle is banged open
Those type 37s run past mine on the main line all the time pulling trains and wagons can hear them from a mile away with how loud they are
Proper thrash. If they aren't clattering, that driver doesn't know how to drive em.
Brilliant footage ! 👍
This is so much better than the railway TV shows that don't show the loco or the rescue
Thanks for sharing shared. Flashbacks of playing on 2 railway lines. And old retired, carriages. Briton Ferry, South Wales. 1970's.
I loved the Class 37s as a little boy,the drivers called them "Whistlers" so I learned to drive one later years on East Lancashire Railway !
I thought 40s were the whistlers...
@@johno4521 You might have a point but I know that Class 37's were known as "Whistlers" ie 4 Stroke Diesel Combustion Engines. I will research your reply Sir ! I drove one on an expensive week's course.
I love the sound of the class 37s 😊
The time was when everything on the railway could run with anything else. Anyone with a little train set soon discovers that. I was on a train that was stuck in a forest for four hours in Sweden due to incompatibility. All the old EP stock had the outer ends of the units fitted with retractable buffers and a drop-buckeye which could be swung down to reveal a normal hook which could be used with a screw coupling. There were, if I recall, spare screw couplings stored in the guard's vans. Connect the air brake and the train could run normally.
Pretty interesting story! Here in the Netherlands nearly all multiple unit trains use the same coupling system, so even though you cant double head two trains of different types, you can mix and match for rescue and transfer purposes. I believe it happened a short while ago in a depot, where they accidentally sent an electric train onto a unelectrified siding. They just used used a diesel multiple unit to pull it towards the electrified lines. Makes sense though that they have those capabilities, since locomotive hauled stock is incredibly rare here.
Yes and the screw link coupler was painted red to indicate that it should be put back in the guards van,
Except that when the EP stock was built many locos were vacuum brake only.
What is the braking system on this new unit? Does it have an air brake with a train pipe? The emergency coupling seems to have two hoses, but passenger units for long time have only a main reservoir pipe, and the brakes can only be released electrically; is that not the case with these units, or does the emergency coupling convert train pipe pressure to an electrical signal for the train brakes? It doesn’t look big enough to contain something to do that
Priceless, a piece of foreign rubbish being rescued by a 62 year old British locomotive, love it...
This is an excellent documentary made better by the complete lack of the hyperbole that it would have if it was a TV wannabe channel. A smoking, grunting 60 year old has to come and rescue an on trend superstar that just broke down when it had to do the job it was paid for. That would be a movie; if it wasn't the tragic truth.
I've read that those Class 755's are notorious for faults currently...
@@Brianboru88 Funnily enough faults like this always happen, and always have happened, because the trains are new. Give them some time to settle in to service.
@@Brianboru88 As are every single version of the Class 800. This is the first time ever in the history of British railways where whole scale, national, stock replacements have been worse, by a majority of measures, than what it replaced. Even the Class 150's were better new than the knackered DMU's they replaced.
I'm a 60 year old this year but I did stop smoking in 2004 and I have started grunting. 😁
During the '70s in Victoria, sometimes a steam locomotive would rescue a failed train when major depots would still run a K class for shunting duties or a K from an enthusiast special. Was pretty rare as the powers that be would resist such a move.
i love how that even though the loco failed everyone seems to be happy.
They get to see a tractor!!
Love the idle on this class of engine👍
You obsession with masks is sickening.
Bet that 37 felt good....or as I knew them English Electric type 3s. Trust a tractor
Around 60 years old at a guess? They are showing the original build quality and reliability to this day, great old ladies 😆
The raw, brute power of that Diesel-Electric, 37608, is just awesome to watch. It was barely even trying, making it look so easy. It is a pity that they are being phased out, but progress is essential I suppose.
ROG Driver to GA Driver: "Hop down and I will show you how its done"
GA Driver: "WHy?"
ROG Driver: "You will be doing this a lot driving Stadler trains"
And later:
GA Driver: "These 37s aren't very fast"
ROG Driver: "Faster than your 755 was going"
While its nice to have new trains on the ESL replacing single car 153s and two car 156s they are not reliable and the 3 car 170s were a better ride.
In Victoria V/Line had an itchy bus trigger finger. It would call out a bus replacement for the slightest thing. None of this train stuff. But still, a light engine would still need to clear the line.
Least he did not used his daughter,s skipping rope , to couple onto the 'Moulinex Blender' designed by cretins,bought by morons.Long live the 'MetCam 101,s,and think of the poor sods up north travelling in f---g class 143 Pacers!!!.

It Amazing really. I've grown up in East anglia and have watched the old DMUs being rescued by Class 37s then the new Strinters coming along and being dragged off in there later life by Class 37s and now these things at only a few years old, If only everything was as substanable as a trusty Class 37. Hopefully they'll still be around in another 50years. Everybody loves the Look & sound of a Class 37!!!
This video is from the future in 20 years time when the 37 drags the Stadler to Booths.
Nah, they'll just ditch the heads, couple them straight in, and use'em on the line, double or tripple, while there's so much power to use. In 60 years from now, it _might_ need a revision on those turbos..
Great capture with this! It's only just come up in my recommendeds! It's really interesting to see the coupling and rescue process 👍
I really love the sound of the more mature locomotives! I wish I could be there or that we had comparable across the pond.
Doesn't the US run old EMD SD40-2s? Most of those are about the same age as the 37, and some would say they're equals. Both workhorses too stubborn and proud to quit, and still viable to the rails.
There’s still GP-38-2s out on Long Island in freight service. I remember them in passenger service years ago. i think you could throw one off a cliff and it’d take all day to hit the ground…
Oh wow that Stadler has a diesel powerpack too like the Stadler FLIRTs in Texas.
So what holds up, a over 60 year old diesel locomotive, or a around 1 year DMU
The
Class 40 Whistler fan myself, but love seeing any of those old diesel electric era locos.....great capture 👍
The spotter in the red hoody must have felt like Christmas had come early! 😄
He can't contain his excitement. So much so that he spontaneously busts a few moves of the Spotter's Shuffle. As seen on Strictly.
That's him trying to hold his piss he's that excited. I much prefer the distant appreciation of our cameraman.
Thanks for the comments on my gracious dancing
That acceleration with little to no wheel slip?!?!?! Jesus Christ that’s impressive!!!
I love the sound as it idles..and great power when it pushed the train set..sounds amazing
The sound of Andromeda is so satisfying...😌
