5* great vid

[ay76]

Many thanks.

[mdpenny42]

Plenty of clag and thrash :)

(Just like D9009 "Alycidon" on the Nene Valley Railway - I was there the weekend before last, and got rather hooked on the Deltics!)

[ay76]

Cool. From the sounds of it, the remaining 6 Deltics (7 if you include the prototype at Shilon) seem to be gaining a whole new generation of fan's. Was looking at some of the younger folks faces when 019 really opened up..... the many grins on there faces just said it all !! Alycidon is one of my fav deltics. Hope Alycidon put on a good show for you, Regards.

[RailwayFanatic92220]

The Deltic chucked out more smoke than a Steam Engine did!

[ay76]

One of my subscribers was with me on this run. It was his 1st time behind a Deltic, he also said it was out doing a steamer with all the clagg!! He was grining like mad....

[joeman747]

yes, i was extremely happy :D

[ay76]

:-) yes great day, my freind. Think one of these beasties will be joining your model fleet one day. Top stuff.Kind regards.

[EastMidlandsSteam]

[ay76]

Wish i could of been on the NYMR for RSG, looking at Powerunit406's video of it, looked a good day. Certainly sound good doing the incline from Grosmont.Top stuff, cheers.
