"Deltics 24/7" is my film of a special day, 24th of July 2010, from lineside. Special because, with Deltic 55022 Royal Scots Grey hauling a GBRF staff excursion from Newcastle-Scarborough that was private, I was again able to experience a day linesiding with the guarantee of multiple Deltic 'sightings' - and all in the year 2010! Talk about cheating time! I make no apologies for including in my edit the approach and aftermath of certain 'passes'. The often drawn-out sound of a Deltic approach and its long, lingering note after passing epitomises the magical hold these locos had on people and made each sighting of a Deltic racing along the east Coast Main Line, both an event and an experience. May the Deltic drone live on.
The trip ran via Doncaster in each direction. The loco also handled the Doncaster-Newcastle ECS movements before and after the tour proper and these are both shown. The shots in order are: northbound ECS at dawn at Fenwick; Newcastle-Scarbro leg northbound at Great Heck; Scarbro-Newc leg southbound at Gateforth and later, northbound at Ryther; finally, the southbound (Newc-Donc) ECS at Fenwick at dusk.
