man o man to see one of these now is rare but to see a triple header thats magical the worlds one and only true locomotives fantastic video sound was awsome hearing these growl once again and to see tulyar in action thanks deltic 17 youve made my year lets campaign for 100 of these with 3 napiers growling up and down the mainline
Fantastic! Absolutely amazing. I was at the ELR this Easter for the 50th birthday celebration with 55022 and D9016 and I thought "THAT" was a treat. Well done mate, excellent editing and boy I envy you :)
holy shit! i was there the day before after i was on the west coast pioneer behind D9000, but the triple header happened the day after - gutted!!! i hear they set car alarms off at Ramsbottom! lol!
Holy sweet mother napier gods!! Think i've just nearly blown the compter speakers!!One how was your hearing?? Two did that sweet napier music bugger the mic up?? & three how much napier merchandise did you get covered in??....sheer napier deltic heaven!! :-) 5* & fav. Now the question is, once number 16 gets back up to mainline status would they do a double headed rail tour?? Many thanks for uploading & sharing this.Cheers.
Might be my ocd kicking in, but how comes Alycidon has horns on the top of cab and not at the side like all deltics should have !!! Staring to look like a class 37 hybrid :P Greta footage by the way. I went to last weekends diesal gala. will be posting stuff soon.
In order for this to work properly there must be some kind of synchronisation system so all 3 locos are running at precisely the same speed otherwise they would pull each other apart or create resistance between each other.Were they built to allow for multiple operation?
I disagree to have these once powerful locomotives humbled about on these preserved railways . To have them paraded around in bizarre scenarios takes away the true elegance and prowess they once sported. I'd prefer to view them static at railway type museums then one could reminisce back to how they once performed.
Hey, big thanks for your comments, they are truly appreciated ! (like the Deltics) Cheers Nick
OMG OMG OMG!!! Nine and three quarter minutes of sheer awe!

This was 55015's last run before it went in for overhaul. I wish they'd bring it back out in Finsbury Park White Cab scheme like it has here
hell, I didn't know these COULD operate in multiple. awesome!
I was there on the Friday and Saturday but I missed this on the Sunday. GUTTED!
Fantastic!
absolutely superb

Won’t be long until we will surely see the return of d9015 and d9002 back to service in near future
Jaw dropped and gob smacked. Just brill.
Thank you!
There are only two preserved deltics that have not yet been to the East Lancashire Railway 55009 (D9009) and the DELTIC prototype
Because 022 was on the mainline doing what it does best! That same week RSG was on "The Lindum Deltic" KX - Lincoln, Mainline railtour. eNeRGy

@Phil6219 Cheers mate, had to get that front window and bow it nearly broke my neck with acceleration!
My Lordz!

Where they all running both engines? Wondrous cacophony they make!

No all three loco's were independently crewed
2 mins 46 seconds to 3:00 !
Big Monster Deltic Bollox!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There is only one true giant of BR and that is Napier Deltic!
I dont think so!!!!!!!
My titles are correct! 22 was not there, 22 Was on the mainline that week!!!
Always thought these were more about the show than the go......lots of noise and exhaust fumes but very slow to get going. Ok once up to speed.
