add to order > Eclipse of the Class 37S | DVD | £14.95
Produced by GLOBE VIDEO FILMS and released November
1999.
This is 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
