Watching now
Great video.
Its now 2024. Do you suffer tinnitus or hearing issues like a lot of valenta bashers now say they do. I bashed VP185s and i have tinnitus.
The mockup seen at 2:47 is the mockup of the Class 458 Juniper. It was built by the then Metro-Cammell/GEC Alsthom and was seen at various places around the South West Trains Network throughout 1997 and 1998. It was eventually returned to GEC Alsthom when the first of the real 458s were constructed and was left in the back of Washwood Heath works. I don't know what's happened to it now as Washwood Heath was demolished to make way for HS2, my guess is it was disposed of.
First time I've seen this video and it's 2024 and always loved the Hat,i remember them pulling out of Plymouth and nearly bursting my ear drums
Them superchargers screaming away though 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
Hello, does anyone happen to have the timings for this service? I used to have most of them from scouring across the web but have lost many. Many thanks.
I miss the old trains we had more 10 to 15 years ago they are so much better than most modern trains we have today
Used to hear these every day in Leeds station whilst I was waiting to catch the local train home. I used to stand next to Platform 6 so i could listen. Probably why I'm half deaf now😂
actually 4
This is music…
Wow that gave me goosebumps I love the valenta engine. The growl of the V12 and the high-speed viscous fans. I wish it could be a little longer
Awdom😊
2023 and watching
Awsome😊
Shame that we won’t be hearing anymore of the valenta engined powercars as of today
The discipline with the throttle here is the incredible. Notch three out the platform, up to four as they enter the tunnel, five comes later. This driver knew their train well.
Probably as it enters Copenhagen tunnel.
Fabulous video, we're the HSTs being draged in passenger service or travelling to the blow torch clouds?
The sound of the Valenta is a sex toy for men. I call it, The Thrilldo. Makes you moonwalk! ❤
LOL
Now that's, a monster
The whine of the turbo spooling up and the cloud of clag. That's a Class 37 saying : "Get out of my way. I'm coming through."!
Awesome. brings back memories of my commute KX to ED every week!
Very cool
Nice video 5⭐️👍👍👍😎
Extraordinary sounding machines…throttling up in Gasworks Tunnel, just when you think the redline has been reached, the screaming intensifies…
The line speed limit increases in the tunnel from about 20 mph to somewhere nearer 50. Once clear of the second tunnel it goes up again.
Wow all fired up thats 9000 hp on tap... Alas that was not the case... However... I used to drive the 43's out of Kings X up the ECML... With 4500 hp under the bonnet ( 2250 hp ) one up front and one up the botty there was plenty of power on tap... Pulling out of the station on notch five with the Paxman Valenta turbo's screaming their little heads off and clouds of exhaust smoke ( sorry Greta Thunberg ) was something to behold with more excitement to enjoy... 125 mph here we come although they would top 148 mph... Now there is food for thought but as I did not fancy tea and biscuits with the Boss well need I say more..
0:53 sounds like a class 56

Back when ULEZ was non existent. You wouldn't see one of these in London nowadays
One of the best I have heard on you tube......just when you think the taps have opened it ramps up again
A much missed sound on our railways. Just before diving into Copenhagen Tunnel, I was looking for Mrs Lopsided's house :)
Why was this exactly how it is?
I wonder how often that happens?
What is that shit music
3:02 when did swt own those?
Not for that long, they operated them along with class 159s
Ah yes happy days, stomping up and down the UK mainlines on hot and bothered Valentas with the occasional "drag-on" moment including a day where 37425 was dispatched to do the honours.
Ah yes...my three local trains
And between Gasworks & Copenhagen you've already reached 100 km/h.
I tuned into listen to.a train, I got a full symphony orchestra. 🎶
that’s actually cool
2007-2010 or thereabouts, the last of the good old days. Musically, transportation wise and general people behaviour
Sounds messed up towards end
Heard that the Class 442s have now been permanently withdrawn and South Western Railway are retaining the Class 458s to replace the Class 442s and reforming them from 5 to 4 coaches and re-rated to meet the need for 100mph operations and other modifications to associate them for Mainline services to the South Coast
Memory of a leaving an Edinburgh to London train at York. Going south out of York there’s no tight curves to negotiate and he put it on full power without any let up. The scream echoing around the cavernous roof and the trailing power car screaming as well. Painful but delightful.
Likewise if you left Reading heading to Bristol or South Wales......
400th liker
also 43123 and 43084 is the last valenta set btw
Nice, never seen network rail 57e before but a tonne of 158s and 9s
It is a sign of the times for us "older" diesel enthusiasts that I am listening to this for the first time and grinning like a cheshire cat. Having disliked HSTs all my adult life for replacing Peaks and Duffs etc I can't believe that the sound in this amazing clip has made me smile so much. What I particularly like is that you think it is at full power as it opens up on entering the tunnel, but then he REALLY opens it up half way through the tunnel. Wow. Thanks for posting :-)
The speed limit increases in the tunnel hence the increase in the volume of the engine......
Proper opens her throttle up in the tunnel
With a bit of luck 125 group will get a Valenta into 43044 and this sound will live again
With even more luck hopefully another powercar too
So in normal operation it has distributed power (power car at each end of the train), but since the locomotives failed and it had to be rescued, it had power only at the front of the train. Does that reduce efficiency?
It had 2 PCs at one end, then one idling for aux power at the other, so i doubt it would reduce efficiency that much, however it would probably decrease acceleration.
the infamous hydra consist HST when one head breaks down the two pick up the slack.
