After a lengthy overhaul preserved Deltic No. D9000 "Royal Scots Grey" had it's first mainline run from Wolverhampton via the S&C to Newcastle and back.
These monsters have 2 x 1650bhp two stroke Deltic marine engines and took over from steam on the London/Scotland east coast line back in the day.
Nothing looks or sounds like these beasts!

To put things in perspective, this is one of the engines!
Napier Deltic, just the dogs b******s!
