A triple DVD set featuring all of the English Electric Class 37s on film. Almost all of the clips have never previously been seen. D6983 appears - in traffic for only 7 months in 1965. Locomotives are shown in sequence with a brief fact screen introducing each member of the Class. Throughout the programme, each of the 309 members of the class 37 fleet is depicted by a scene from it’s past. This may be last year or many years ago, and thus many liveries are depicted from British Railways Green and BR Blue through to sector liveries and beyond into the Privatised era.

This is 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.

Definitely a head banging session!

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.

[Ian's Note: It isn't about the days of steam, it's about diesels on goods trains in the 1990s. HOWEVER it does show this era from Rail blue through to sectorisation. And as such is a record of those times!]

At its peak, the British railway network consisted of a massive 20,000 miles of track on which ran 23,000 locomotives pulling a total of 73,000 carriages and 1.4 million goods wagons. This huge transport network was managed and operated by 130 individual companies. Like the small capillaries at the end of the main arteries, Britain s Branch Lines were essential links to villages, small towns and many industrial sites such as collieries, factories and power stations.With the demise of heavy industry and development of cheap motor cars, many Branch Lines have closed.This DVD film is part of a nationwide tour of many of these lines, some long since closed, some still in limited operation.

It's been many years since the last Class 52 "Western" locomotives ran on British Raiulways and yet the fascination of this unique class of diesel hydraulics lingers on.

Here we feature a pictorial history of the class looking back to it's heyday and featuring wonderful scenes from the early hydraulic years and includes the whole range of ‘Western’ liveries as the D1000s share space with other diesel-hydraulic types.

The film also includes interviews with ex-BR staff involved in the introduction of the ‘Westerns’ and with acknowledged expert Adrian Curtis. This gives us a fascinating insight into the thoughts and motives behind the ‘Western’ project and even the choice of names for the locomotives.

This film is like no other Western video. It includes rare footage captured primarily in Devon and Cornwall by just a few enthusiasts chasing their favourite type of locomotive before time ran out in February 1977. This film carries almost entirely original soundtrack and features more than half of the class of Western locomotives.

Because of this we see it exactly as it was in those days. The programme contains captions and brief commentary but careful production ensures that the Westerns do the talking! As a result this video features a symphony of diesel hydraulic thrash!

As the title suggests, this is no ordinary video for after 25 years we can witness a Western once more where it belongs, with views of the return to the main line in 2002 of "Western Champion".

Included are not only impressive lineside shots but also views from right behind the engine. Travel with us into Cornwall with "Western Glory", over the Devon Banks with "Western Duke" and "Western Trooper", and onto the Paignton branch with "Western Pathfinder"
