No Finsbury park 'Racehorse' Deltics - I liked the white cab frames they gave them.

And as for 55008 and 55021 both of the cabs of the locos have also survived but on display just like the prototype deltic

If only these times could exist again and live these years again Sadly we can't, but thankfully we have these "snapshots" to act as a window on history

Diesel prototype 1 deltic nearly went to Canada they were meant to take the loco there to do further trials but they decided against it thanks to a leakage in one of the engines

Doncaster is where all the deltics were built in 1961
