Making Hay while the sun shines

Sometime in the late 1970s, a photographer was greeted with perfect weather and a well positioned line up of locomotives at Haymarket depot in Scotland.

 

From left to right, locomotives visible are a class 08, a class 47, 55021, 55004, a class 101 DMU, another class 47, 55022, another class 47 and a class 25.

 

No locomotive numbers are readable but sleuths on Facebook (and Steve McFarlane , see below) were able to identify the identities of the Deltics.
