    The Deltic. My favourite loco. Power, speed and beauty combined. Loved the lads with the broken headlamp. Good old British engineering know-how. If all else fails, "give it a good blurry thump!!!"

      It sounded and looked fantastic, the guys at LSL give them much credit.

    Fantastic video, rain made little difference, Great to see RSG again, I cabbed it when I was 13 at York in 1967, I think it was blue by then, or maybe just the full yellow front, twas a grey day, and Bittern was in the roundhouse annex still BR.
    Anyway, i loved to see the Brush type4 as we all remember them.
    But video quality and content 10/10, thanks.

    @vincepeterbilt3450 Před rokem +1

    Nice little clip, the offside rear light on my Golf has a similar problem so I know what they needed to do was wallop it from the side not the front and that fixes it almost every time 😉

      Yes 2 engines in this loco. Only one was in use at the time when filming. It will be having its second engine working next time !!!!
      The loco is called a Deltic. Used to mainly be used on the East Coast Main Line.
