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

The grin on the Class 40 driver’s face when he pulled away light. 😁

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

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

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

They are what you call great locos

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

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

Absolutely beautiful locomotives, lovely.

This is simply astonishing !!! Massive thanks for posting !!!

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

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!

Two of my favorite classes. Magic.

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.

Fantastic! I got to see this as i passed through York en-route to Newcastle from Kings cross 24th November 23. It was like rewinding the clock back to 1981 great times spent in my youth.

a stunning machine

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:face-fuchsia-wide-eyes:

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.

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

Beautiful trains, that Deltic sounds mean, love it. We love our trains here in Clemson SC, Go Tigers!

Quite a sound My wife and I lived very close to the King’s Cross -Aberdeen line and one day a Deltic passed by with quite a roar .
