I kno i was just saying in general that I like that certain train, does not mean it's in the video, it's just me saying I like the class 55 which is the similar shape to the 37.

Well to be fair, the 37 is a smaller version of the 40.

Although the reason they are all shaped like that is because the designers used to believe that drivers would pass out if they were staring at the track flying underneath them if in a cab like a 47, which is why they had noses like that. Of course it was utter rubbish :razz:

The 40 was a failure though to be fair, only 2000hp and not enough traction motors. Very slow off the mark, but sound nice all the same. I'm not complaining :roll:
