LMS MTU No.1
To complete the 'Deltic' test train, there would be two of these Mobile Test Units; electrically braked vehicles with generators and banks of cooled load-dump resistors. They also had diesel-powered generator sets on board to power the electrical control equipment separately.
Here we see modelled MTU No.1, M45053. 'Deltic' would also have hauled MTU No.2 M45054, which looked virtually identical to No1, but had a different loading capacity. As far as I can tell, they would have been connected back-to-back with their guard compartments outermost.
