Nothing oozes power yet 'friendliness' like a Deltic! Great video - thanks.

I keep coming back to watch your Peterborough clip… truly magnificent to see a Deltic back on its old stomping ground, doing what it does best and sounding just wonderful..! Its even worth a “Bravo, Sir! Bravo!”…! 👏🏻👏🏻🎶🎶🎶 😆

Running on both engines too. That's a rarity these days. 👍

What an engine! We would have needed such strong and fast machines here in Germany. After the decline of steam, heavier fast trains had always to be pulled in double traction, on some remaining not electrified lines this happens until today. For a single 55 no problem at all! We should have imported some 50 or 150 of them. What I cannot understand: The British themselves built only some 25 or so. Why? In my opinion there was in those times for european purposes no better engine availible at all.

@Auraxium

Timetables for main lines don't seem to have a lot of fault tolerance which means a failed train stranded on the line can cause big problems. Adding an in-service locomotive on the back of a heritage train is a backup which can hopefully drag the failed train off of the main line.

The Deltics were introduced exactly at a time when they should have electrified the railways. Instead British rail was almost "dieselized to death". An elderly friend of mine who is a life-long railway enthusiast and retired British rail driver said it best: "I love the Deltics but they should never have been built". Everybody likes this locomotive but in reality it is a symbol of failure.

The dieselisation was also chosen back in the days as future traction power here in Denmark. We didn't have hydropower like our Scandinavian brothers, so GM engined Swedish engines were the backbone in Danish railways and to some extent still is. But the time has caught up on the old behemoths and people don't care for the pollution when they travel through Copenhagen. The sound is fantastic though

@MarioStahl1983

@@Runeakb True! But it's still a mess in Denmark. Out of the 2560 km of danish railways only 642 km are electrified. The main reason why that's so annoying isn't even the pollution. It's simply technologically backwards. But all in all I think a diesel train is still better than no train at all.😊

@@lawrence18uk rail freight is limited to (I think!, there might be exceptions) transit trains coming and going to Sweden and Germany. So there is not that much shunting going on anywhere as, say, 30 years ago. Sadly. Where I grew up there is a steel mill, and the steel slabs were shipped off with trains. Apparently this was not profitable compared to shipping by lorry! I really didn't understand that! So I think around 2002 it changed. Countless lorries are needed to substitute just one train, and the roads got stressed to an extent that it might have been a great expense for the communities and counties. I guess these expenses were not included in the profitability calculation.
