"Alycidon" in disguise, 19.08.23.

[Swiss Toni]

Deltic class 55 "Alycidon" was out again at the weekend with a Kings Cross/Scarborough and return railtour, only this time masquerading as previously scrapped class mate "The Black Watch".
Seen here crossing the River Ouse at York on the outbound journey.

The reason for the disguise is explained if you click the photo link.

Thank you, and yes the coaching stock was a huge improvement on the last railtour.

The shot is just like it was back in the 70's/early 80's...
