What a beautiful train. It is amazing this guy first, owns a Train, I'll start a museum if I can own a train (wishful thinking), and that it was all ready to go, incredible!

My Dad probably worked on 55022.
He worked on Deltics up to 1966 (out of Derby)

Now that's cool. Forwarded the link on to a friend of mine. He's building the New York City Mack Superpumper in 1/16 that used a Deltic engine to drive the pumps.

Wonderful! Such a beautiful locomotive. Deltic engines were used to drive a vast number of warships, including the "Nasty" class patrol boats and some classes of minesweeper.
