British Rail Class 37

105k RailfanEthan  7.7 years ago

It's been awhile since I've made a British locomotive.
The 309 produced Class 37 locomotives were made by English Electric at the Vulcan Foundry. They maxed out at 90mph. The nicknames of the locomotive include: Tractor, Syphon, Growler, and Slugs were given by railroad workers, referring to the engine sound, which also produced 1,500hp.

Trim is throttle, roll to steer, VTOL is reverser, and 1-3 is lights. Enjoy!

    @TimeTraveler It takes time. Lots of it. And the ability to learn from mistakes, and improve.

    Wow, not bad! Saw someone had tagged you on my version of the Class(type)37 so I thought I'd investigate you a bit. I see that like me, you are a train and tank fanatic. Nice to find another great builder on SP!

    I see that with this build, You've gone for the later version without the frontal doors. I have the older versions going past my house everyday. Most commonly 37409 and 37609.

    @cowelly Thank you! I wish my interiors could have more to them, but it's the best I can do on mobile.
