Many thanks for posting yet another breathtaking presentation - especially the night parts. As a committed Steam Engine fan I have usually disregarded Diesel Locomotives, sorry to the enthusiasts, that is until I have watched such videos as this. The Deltic in particular is a stunning example of British ingenuity and engineering innovation.
Thank you very much, glad you enjoyed it! :) Deltics are fantastic and truly special locos, especially when you hear one in person you really feel the power of them :) Cameron
Hello from Chile. I have a question. I see others British diesel class locomotives in pics. But, I don't know iff are other classes of sub-classes of this. The 37, 40, 44, 45, 46 are sub-classes of this locomotives or not?
That's a pretty hideous ragbag of four different liveries on that rake of coaches. One would hope for a better looking train than that. Good to see a Deltic on the main line though - still impressive.
A sight to behold especially at Chesterfield, I remember that sound so well when I used to see the Deltics at York as a youngster. Thank you!
You're very welcome, glad you enjoyed it :)

A Deltic is only a Deltic when both engines are running.
Hello from Chile.
I have a question.
I see others British diesel class locomotives in pics. But, I don't know iff are other classes of sub-classes of this.
The 37, 40, 44, 45, 46 are sub-classes of this locomotives or not?
The 37, 40, 44, 45 & 46 are all different classes to the 55, even if they do look similar :)

Pity 009 had fuel issue on one engine great shots
Thank you very much David, certainly is a shame she had issues. Hopefully she can have a trouble free run on her next tour :)
Cameron
@@RailView_YT Is that the reason for the smoke? It can't be right.
@@chrisst8922 Deltics usually clag quite a lot, can’t say I’m 100% sure on what caused the fuel issue
Cameron
good thing is mosquito control!!
For her to be fresh out of the paint shop and looking great , it seems almost criminal that she's only running one engine 😢
I think it running one of the engines on the Deltic is not 100 per cent hence one engine is running and 47 doing most of the work
Albert Einstein right here
Is the class 47 also propelling the train ?
Thanks.
I'd technically say yes leaving Chesterfield, the 47 was basically just getting her up to speed while she had issues with one of her engines.
Cameron
Any idea what the engine problem was? She looks great , fresh out of the works , but only one engine....seems sad 😭😭
A regulator problem was discovered just after leaving Kings X on the return leg so the engine was shut down at New Southgate as a precaution.

Sounds a bit rough with only one engine running properly.
