PURPLE !!!! its like seeing a bright snot green Porche.
Stunning colour, looks beautiful.
The two stroke engines.. They SCREAM..
I just love the way at idle they sound like a bag of bolts then open the throttle to a sympathy that can only be the deltic
The acceleration at 1:04 - blimey!
You should see a Western,Warship and Hymek. Makes the Deltics acceleration look lethargic!
I never got to see them before br got rid but I've seen and been lucky enough for my son to cab 9009 at the 40s 60th birthday was hauled by her they pull so strong compared to the likes of the 50 37 and even the leviathan class 40 what an engine the 55 is and what a missed opportunity for BR to not have to sell out to general motors not so long ago we needed them as we had nothing to fill the gap even the 40 has been reinstated which is fantastic to see
A beautiful Deltic. I like the purple colour. Excellent video.
Crap
I thought the thumbnail had been doctored but it really is purple. arrggh! Halfords headlights too. 😣
Ye them light are really bad im shure i have seen them on a bin wagon somewhere.
Used to work them every day 1967-70. My Driver allowed me to do half the driving every day. One day he let me take the Flying Scotsman all the way. Arrived on the KEB 25 minutes early. Signalman let us in with 5 minutes to go. We used 2 engines.
Same here. I started as a Traction Trainee at Haymarket MPD in 1974 and my first drive in a Deltic was 1A57 Aberdeen to Kings Cross. We worked them from Edinburgh Waverley to Newcastle. We'd be on 'The Coast' (ECML) or as we called it, 'The Holy Ghost' for a week at a time. I can still hear that howl/wail as it was opened up in the Waverley. No one in the station was in any doubt a Deltic was pulling out. Nothing else sounds like that. There were always at least two, or three in the depot at one time.
I never imagined that almost half a century later people would still be interested.
Ok that deltic is if a class
20 for the headlights, northern for the purple, and the deltic had a baby
She sounds wonderful
Not in the engine room with both engines flat out, they never!
Wow that is quite a deal fantastic
The colour purple is in fact magenta wich they bought from Triumph (BL) in the late seventies.
Still a crap colour for such an iconic loco
I was joking, mate. The colour in it self is not bad, I ‘ve seen classic Triumphs in this colour and they looked great.
But, yes for an iconic loco it should have been British Racing Green.
Don't adjust your screens, some divvy actually sprayed it that colour.
Andrea Deakin I can't find any images of it on Google, I think the video was edited
tanklord99 nope this is real.
Just how more undignified could that Deltic be made to look?
Couldn't agree more
Cadbury’s Swiss roll 👍🇬🇧😂
I've often thought Junkers should be thanked for selling D Napier & Son the licence for opposed piston designs!
Deltic has joined purple gang server
Very nice deltic
Nice
what a hideous colour to paint the greatest locomotives ever made
Iain Botham green now
I think it was edited
It's beautiful. It's the UKIP colours!
There are four levers or something, two on each side, just above the bogies. Anyone know what they are?
They are lifting brackets for the loco to be lifted off it's bogies
Amazing ❤🚂❤ Love from => Train Lover Himu
I don't believ 60 percent is diesel. I suspect 60% is for miles of non-electrified track vs electric, but for passengers carried, per day, including the London tube, electric must be higher than this.
Awesome how do you arrange that ?
conantdog Oh it was very simple you paid £20 you got 2 drives and a certificate so me and my mate seen driving jumped on it they used to do this quite regularly i drove the Hymek Warship D335 and Deltic D9019.
Oh, it's Barney the Deltic Dinosaur. Thankfully, its song is better than that insipid "I love you, you love me..." tripe.
A pink Felton now I've seen it all
Did you edit the colour, because there are no images of this on google
tanklord99 da boss No thats the livery she carried im shure the must be plenty of piks of it.😊
nablicman I can't find any
tanklord99 da boss i just had a quick look "deltic 16 purple livery" i put in and loads came up.😊
Ffs whyyyy! Not knocking your vid though mate that’s cool.
Why is it a purple Deltic?
Owned by porterbrook
Wonderful, but the purple ruined it!
£15.....I bet that wont cover the fuel???
Best £15 i ever spent.
I've just been reading about the Burlington Pioneer Zephyr in the USA and the 1900 litres of diesel fuel that it used on it's initial run in 1934 cost $US 16.00 !!!!!!!!!!!
This is an outrage ,Deltics should be blue or two tone green ,this is hideous
Looks like something out of a quality street tub! Who on earth decided to roll with that ridiculous colour scheme?
Flipping eck..... Wouldnt go a miss at gay pride🤣🤣🤣
Why he ourple
It was the colours of the company that owed it at the time.
Whoever did that colour wants hanging it is absoutley disgusting to paint such a iconic loco in that colour
That looks horrible
WHAT ON EARTH is with that colour? This used to come into Wimbledon depot to have the wheels skimmed now and then, was owned by Porterbrook. I guess that puke purple is their corporate colour??? SOMEONE should get life imprisonment for allowing them to deface a treasured heritage loco with that purple!!! OMG dont let a GIRL drive, she will break something lol.
It's better than mucky blue with the yellow ends.
Did they have strange people in charge.
