Class 37 Photos...

Proper engines! I wonder what all those Italian bogie vans are doing in the background?

When Tidal Sidings were a 'steel sector hub' - wagons which would previously had no business being there, would appear from time to time.

.

ASW did however 'hire in' a number of internationally registered wagons about this time - I may have details somewhere.

A few of Dad's from the mid 1960s.  I suppose I should really have captioned them as English Electric Type 3s.

In 1980 a brace of 'six-eighters' rest at Pantyffynnon contemplating another weeks grind shuttling back and forth to G-C-G, Abernant and other local coal loading points, all now a memory.

Here are another couple from South Wales:-

A trip from Tymawr Colliery drops cautiously down towards Radyr Yard behind 37273,

although trains approaching down the valley could be heard from some distance away

the Drivers only briefly applied power to keep the train running, letting the gradient do most of the work, 11/8/82.

Steel from BSC Margam for Llanwern crosses the Usk in Newport behind 37236, 7/5/85

A single loco on flasks? I thought they were always doubled up for redundancy  :O

 

They are now, as part of the DRS safety case, but when running under Coal Sector and Transrail before DRS took over, they would often only have one.

 

Cheers,

Mick

NB - there is an excel attachment to this post which may be easier to read !
