Well 2013 has certainly been no disappointment when it comes to steam, but when it comes to those thrashing clagging diesel locomotives of yesteryear, 2013 has been kind enough to deliver it's fair share of fantastic moments too. With eruptions of highly carcinogenic clouds of smoke and deafening growls and screaming turbochargers, the year has been packed with incredible amounts of entertainment, from locomotives such as the age old Class 37's, Class 47's and the unchallenged Class 55 Deltics, to the more mundane Class 56 Grids which have been deafening the UK countryside with it's unmistakable scream. Even a Class 14 'Teddy Bear' gets a mention in this video as it piles down the middle of a street in Preston with a plume of grey smoke!
Environmentalists, look away now because the next 20 or so minutes are nothing but enough turbocharged noise and smoke to warm the cockles of your heart! :D
Enjoy! :D
