    Shame about the 68 on the back, otherwise a scene straight out the 70's with a blue loco on a full blue/grey Mk1/2 rake.

    I suspect the 68 was added to slow down the Deltic. :)

    Alicidon just drifted through Sandal and Agbrigg station. It's a few decades since I watched that happen
    (A few years ago I was travelling behind the Deltic as it passed through)

    Well it's damn well sure it wasn't there to give a push. Happy days, a Deltic on the ECML going like a stabbed rat.:Happy:
