DELTIC AND CLASS 40, At York, With Two Deltic ENGINE START UPS!! (55022 & 40023!!) | 26/11/23.

[@tonyfreeman5048]

The delic is a beautiful machine in my opinion the best looking locomotive ever built

[@TRAlNVlDEOS]

I agree, thanks for the comment!

[@FishingFan2]

There is no other sound on Earth like the Deltic. Unique, distinctive, pure music to the ears....

[@cageordie]

I wish I could hear a fully loaded Deltic accelerating south through Low Fell from Newcastle again. There was a service that headed down south every night and that was the soundtrack of my childhood. Running them on low power, or revving them for a few seconds isn't the same as 5 minutes of full power from Gateshead to Lamesley yard and on towards Durham. You need both engines running to get the beats from them being slightly out of sync.

[@Langevloei-NL]

@FishingFan2 Try the Taurus from Siemens. The singing locomotive. No diesel stench, pure electrifying synergy.

[@2760ade]

@@Langevloei-NL Very weird though!😀

[@pemboart]

That class 40 pulling off was the equivalent of a chav doing a burnout to impress his friends. Love it 😂

[@chompette_]

That was nice of the 40 driver to showcase how fast a light engine diesel can take off for the fans!

[@TRAlNVlDEOS]

Yes the driver did the same, with the same class 40 at Carlisle in my last video!

[@delticnapierdccsound4236]

Thats how whistlers used to be driven, a very distant memory now. Superb.

Outstanding video Tribute to British engineering Great credit to everyone that helps to maintain this Deltic. Beautiful sound.

[@TRAlNVlDEOS]

Thank you!

[@philcowling4515]

The sound of the Deltic takes me back to my spotting days at Kings Cross. Happy memories!

[@BibTheBoulderTheOriginalOne]

The noise from the Deltic is truly unique. In my 60's I have travelled thousands of miles behind these iconic locomotives, and loved every one of them. I even did the 'Night Aberdonian' back in the day with Deltic haulage from EDB to KGX. Great video.

[@TRAlNVlDEOS]

Sounds amazing! Thanks for the comment!

[@robertp.wainman4094]

Hauled by a Deltic in the 60's and 70's - was always a highlight of a rail journey........nothing compares nowadays!

[@LaLaLand.Germany]

I love these old grunters, I miss the old days when cars were actually nice and comfy, with cabins and ash trays and real light bulbs. And them trains ran thru ice and snow no matter what! Sometimes the doors were frozen and needed some persuasion, so be it. Only in summertime it wasn´t so nice because opening the windows would only do so much but at least they were to open! Todays ac´s are nice- when they work and it isn´t too hot for them. Then they go "No, thanks" and we are left to rot in them ovens. Thanks for the trip down memory lane, wish Y´all the best

[@mstrbool602]

Just got home from this tour and feel so lucky to have these memories. Engines on display through the windows at night - doesn’t get much better for me. They must have been so proud, and so am I!

[@TRAlNVlDEOS]

It was a fantastic day!! Thanks for the comment!!

Yes - the warm light illuminating the Napiers was really beautiful!

[@richardmarshall4322]

i love how old engines bring alot of attention cause they had more style back then in my opinion same with steam engines they where way better than the modern trains of today

Wish I could see one at Carlisle, I missed all 3 trips Deltics made through Carlisle this year sadly! Thanks for the comment!

I think "Deltic Point" would be a good name for the new Network Rail building in York, as it references the York triangle & former railway works.

[@Retirement_Life]

Railway royalty! Great video…. 👏😜👏

[@JJthrashing]

Deltic was gleaming, engine room spotless 😊

[@Tom55data]

I am old enough to travel behind these when in regular service. I have been in york station with a north bound and south bound deltic at the same time , now that is thunderous .

[@TRAlNVlDEOS]

I bet it was!

[@formidable38]

I cant believe the MK5 sets + 68's are finishing!!!

[@paulmeiklejones5653]

Been on all the deltics in the driving cabs and worked with them all in my job. Moving at speed not just watching and yes I have never felt a power push when both engines are running could not use them on freight as to powerful.

[@TRAlNVlDEOS]

That must have been amazing, Thanks for the comment!!👍

[@paulmeiklejones5653]

Yes it was but very noisy I spent 25 years as a freight guard so I would act as the second man and was there to couple up or uncouple the train from the engine. I was based at Holbeck in Leeds so all the different locomotives would come on for fuel and service.

[@scopex2749]

I worked at Wimbledon TMD for 5 years as a train engineer and we had a wheel lathe there. That meant we got in many visiting locos, coaches AND PRESERVED Deltics to have wheels skimmed ( this is done with the wheels still on the train they just drive over the lathe pit and each wheel is turned by itself). KOYLI always sounded beautiful. Those Napier Deltics purring away. My late father was on the team that put in the witing foe the prototype DELTIC and later production ones. So whenever I see one I am reminded of him. The old Whistlers were awesome as well I just wish they had retained some as station pilots like they have done with the mighty 37's I travelled many times on the ECML behind Deltics in service and at 100 MPH they sound AWESOME. EEEURGH 66 YINGER awful piece of rubbish sounds like a blender

[@SeriaIDesignationC]

Oh hey I'm going to York later today, nice vid btw

[@TRAlNVlDEOS]

Thank you!

[@andrewwturner]

Fantastic video. What's the reason for having that class 47 at the rear?

[@TRAlNVlDEOS]

@@andrewwturner I think it’s mainly incase of a failure of the loco on the front and also to provide ETH to the coaches! 👍

[@robertp.wainman4094]

The noise of solo RSG departing north with vigour (before returning to connect with it's coaches) takes me back to Sunday evenings in the 1970's when I'd regularly catch a Deltic hauled service to Newcastle......before locals living near the track complained and drivers were told to depart with a light throttle! Did these people have no soul?

[@WAL_DC-6B]

I used to work as a locomotive engineer (driver) for the Soo Line/Canadian Pacific in the Chicago area (now retired). For a while I took trains from our Bensenville, IL yard to another railroad's yard on Chicago's south side. Most of the time we'd be held out by a stop signal on the Grand Trunk Railroad (Canadian National) to await our turn to enter the yard we were destined for. This would be in a nice neighborhood with pleasant homes. Once while stopped in the wee hours of the morning a woman from across the street from where our stopped train's locomotives were idling came out up to our train and asked if we could move our train a little further down the tracks as it was causing her home to vibrate. We took her up on her request and moved the whole works up the tracks. After that experience we always stopped our train a little further from her home and she became known to us railroaders as "the woman with the vibrating house."

[@robertp.wainman4094]

@@WAL_DC-6B This is a great story and I guess you've many more - thank you! You must miss your locomotive engineer days.

[@WAL_DC-6B]

@@robertp.wainman4094 I do indeed miss running a locomotive, the people I worked with and the money I made (still have a good pension). I don't miss the 12-hour days, working nights, the constant removal of yard jobs you could hold, getting "bumped" by someone with higher seniority (for better days off ... yes, I did the same) and the long drive to work (24 miles) especially in bad winter conditions.

Can't beat a proper train loco and coaches none of this bimode multiple car nonsense. You just can't beat all the vast variety of diesel design in this era.
