  • Four Class 37s join the Carlisle Variety.
    Clag from 37516 again!
    56s on the Logs.
    30 January 2024
    A pair of Colas 37s top and tail Network Rail's Ultrasonic Test Train.
    West Coast 37s seem to have brake problems. 37516 stinks the place when started from a couple of days inactivity. The pair had been on standby for route proving north from Carlisle and from Newcastle.
    The Logs are still hauled by a pair of 56s.
    DB Cargo take a heavy Kirov crane from Carlisle to Crewe.
    Plus passenger trains from Avanti, TransPennine and Northern.
    The times shown on clips are for guidance only and shouldn't be taken as definitive.
    Any observations are my own and not intended to show any authority and may show my misunderstanding.

    37516 goes full on steam mode and fogs out half of Carlisle! Love it ❤ just to think they got rid of steam for cleaner diesel engines! 😂 A dirty seven at its finest. Thanks for a great video Les, very informative one, I hope your lungs are okay after inhaling all that smoke!
    I miss the Thames Clyde Express that would take my family on our hols to Ayr.

    Lots happening.
    It was interesting to see some of the station canopies actually closely resemble the Hornby platform canopies.
    I've just been filming my layout from track level so they rally did look similar.

    • @LeslieGilpinRailways

      Thanks. The canopies are, I think, a common design used by BR London Midland Region in the 1950s - these date from 1958.

      I need to rewatch that segment but my memory is the train was starting. He only had a 35 minute wait for the next train (which he was probably going for)

    Looks like it's a health risk being around when a 37 starts up! Reminds me of the 50s, a mixture of fog, smoke and steam when visiting Willesden sheds one winter.

    Nice work Leslie. I felt really sorry for the man who wasn't allowed to join the 1408 Carlisle > Barrow (12:46). The train was still stationary, the driver saw him, had time to let him on but still set off without him. Very poor. And the 'dispatcher' didn't care a jot either. Unforgiveable.
    Interesting 37 manoeuvres though. 685 arriving 'live' and departing 'dead'.

    • @LeslieGilpinRailways
      @LeslieGilpinRailways  7 місяців тому +1

      Technically the train had started and the staff are used to people making a dash at the last second. The train has a two or more hour journey ahead and a delay at the start would only build up. As it happens he's only a 35 minute wait for the next train. Thanks for watching

    • @rarerufus8864
      @rarerufus8864 7 місяців тому

      @@LeslieGilpinRailways I'm afraid that I'm not impressed by any technicality argument, there was just one person, he obviously wanted to board a train that was still stationary but the staff weren't interested. Any delay to let him on would have been no more than 90 seconds and that time can easily be made up. This illustrates a general lack of consideration to others that saddens me.

    Brilliant video of the 37's and the smoke coming from them, I bet you were choking! A personal view of mine is that the 37's don't suit the West Coast Purple livery - they suit the old BR Large Loco one better, I think, but that just may be me longing for days gone by!

    • @LeslieGilpinRailways
      @LeslieGilpinRailways  7 місяців тому +1

      The 390s run with the rear pantograph up as do LNER Azumas. TransPennine and other companies run with the front one up.I don't know why, but Avanti drivers need permission and run at reduced speed if they run front panto up. Always 2 pantographs on a unit.
