Channel: Stoat13

Description
Certainly a day to remember, but for the wrong reasons. After years of waiting, a Deltic returned to the main line! What a day! The long haul by 86 from Kings Cross at daft o'clock, the joy of seeing D9000 tie on the stock at Edinburgh Waverley, the smell of the exhaust filling the coach through the many open windows as the train accelerated through one of the Calton tunnels, the thrill of experiencing passenger haulage behind a Deltic at speed again, then the shared disappointment when it all came to a grinding halt at Berwick upon Tweed.

NB: In the video some of the audio has been suppressed due to wind noise and extreme profanity and views expressed by some of the upset travelers.
