Great Central Diesel Gala September 2009 (pt4)

Part four. This one's for any Deltic fans amongst you. Here we take a trip down the line behind Deltic "Royal highland Fusilier" no 55 019. This time we have the treat of seeing it & hearing it run on both of it's twin engine's......3,300HP of pure Napier power. As Zontar deltic would say "Sing my Beauty..." for those of you who don't know or have heard of Zontar, this is his channel (Some video's not for the kids!!): http://www.youtube.com/user/Powerunit406

Final part of this series coming shortly.
