don't know where they got the engines from but sound reminds me of Tank engines. Such a lot of interesting names too! The Western Advocate, Courier, Emperor, Ranger, Talisman, Trooper, Thunderer, Western Queen, and many more. looking at the Western Enterprise the colour Desert Sand is unusual for a train in those but after I think its good. I didn't think there was any footage of these beauties but here it is, Thank you so much for putting this footage out there. 🧐😀😀

Nice 🎉
Memories of Laira depot in 1968. Time machine anyone?
high speed engines were used in the deltic loco before any of the western region hydraulics.
Love the Weston but it was built as a light weight greyhound but at 108T compared with the Deltic 99T,not so lightweight .
