      Usually diesels are inserted into the consist to provide 'Hotel' services, i.e. electricity/heating to the coaching stock. It's also required by NR as 'insurance' against failure, as costs for delays and disruption to scheduled services costs a fortune, and it's the charter company that foots the bill.

      Chris, FYI I have a thing or two to do with the locomotive you mention. Normally we are unassisted by diesels. Occasionally one is put on the back for operational reasons/ leaf fall etc. Mainly more recently due to the hot weather NWR have a system in place where steam locomotives are assisted by a diesal. This reduces any risk of sparks and setting the world on fire. Hope that helps.
