"The Black Watch" for me. But where's the nameplate?

Well 55001 was the first Deltic I spotted when I first walked into Kings Cross so I always had a soft spot for it. Nowt wrong with St Paddy.

If you want to get obsessed by "celebs" then I guess that is par for the course these days.
Just thinking from a commercial angle - if you had to rank the deltics in order of popularity then I guess 1 and 20 would finish last by virtue of their early withdrawals? If Kuju want to drive up their sales figures then surely the inclusion of RSG would help? There were for me the only 2 I didn't travel behind... So, No.5 for me please which certainly wasn't a 'celeb'..
Lost your love of life? Too much apple pie!
