    Just needs 9 and 15 to shed their respective skins and swap them over. Then all will be well with the world again :D

    From The DPS
    We are extremely pleased to announce that D9015 Tulyar has undergone its first test runs at the GCR today.
    Initially 2 light engine runs from Loughborough to Leicester and return, alternating between Power Units.
    Tulyar was then coupled onto a rake of 9 coaches and pulled its first train since April 13th 1997.
    After a round trip alternating PU 538 and 417 the final round trip of the day was made on two engines.
    The loco performed admirably with only a small number of extremely minor snags presenting themselves.
    Further mileage accumulation is scheduled during June and we anticipate being able to release the loco for traffic on completion

    A KX to Edinburgh on 2 engines would be nice.:Happy:

    "and we anticipate being able to release the loco for traffic on completion"

    Do they open the shed doors and tempt it out with a bit of fully-synth and then let it scamper off as the band plays "born free"...:D

    Glad to see it's going well anyway

    Might be a bit off yet as the mainline gubbins are not yet fitted.
    Think a tour of preserved lines is on the cards to beat any last niggles out, raise a bit of dough, then........

    In today's real world, wouldn't four main line registered Deltics (9, 15, 19 and 22) in due course be spreading the potential love a little too thinly?

    Unless I'm mistaken, I do think it's a bit of a shame that the chance to keep just one of the DPS trio in genuine BR condition (i.e. steam heat) has now been lost forever.
