Class 37s - The Ulimate Collection Release in September 2006 this TRIPLE DVD set featured ALL of the English Electric type 3 locomotives [later Class 37] on film, and yes there were a few surprises too!!! |
![]() | 37 ... And Still Going Strong Released in July 1998 "37 ... And Still Going Strong" is the first in this series of videos marking a tribute to this famous class of diesel locomotive.

Almost all livery variations are included from BR blue to EWS. Full colour and captions including locos/location/train details.

![]() | Echoes of the Class 37s "Echoes of the Class 37s" is the second in the series of videos marking a tribute to this famous class of diesel locomotive. Nationwide views combine the unmistakable sight and sound of more than 80 class members on both freight and passenger workings throughout the 1990s. Almost all livery variations are included Full colour and captions including locos/location/train details.

![]() | Eclipse of the Class 37s The third in a series of programmes dedicated to the class 37s won accolades from the railway press before going out on general release. To add to the magnificent sound effects which are a feature of this series of programmes 'Eclipse' includes the sight and sound of no less than 100 different locomotives in action in two different countries-that's right-this video is the first to include action from southern France where the class 37s are assisting with construction duties connected with the new high-speed TGV Link. Added to this the class is seen hard at work in the UK from Penzance to Inverness and from Lowestoft to Aberystwyth and most places in between. A comparison of modern and historical liveries are seen to good effect as we see many members of the class which have now succumbed to withdrawal. Full train details appear as captions and narrative has been deliberately omitted so that the truly distinctive sound of these locomotives is not compromised. Running time 62 mins approx |
![]() | Reflections of the Class 37s The fourth and possibly most remarkable in the series of Class 37 programmes. Material spans the years 1987 to 2000 and features many classic liveries including BR blue, large logo blue, red stripe railfreight as well as more up to date paint schemes. Following on where Eclipse of the Class 37s left off we see astonishing action from Southern France where the Class 37s are assisting with construction duties connected with the new high-speed TGV Link. This time we see them in action on the Southern steeply graded section where multiple type 3s tackle the infamous 1 in 30 gradient at Donzere. In the UK we see views from Cornwall to Caithness - literally, and view some of the most startling scenery in between. Railtours, rare passenger turns, heavy freights; they are all here in what is likely to be another best seller. Train details appear as captions and narrative has been deliberately omitted so that the truly distinctive sound of these locomotives is not compromised. Running time 68 mins approx |
