The British Rail Class 55 is a class of diesel locomotive built in 1961 and 1962 by English Electric. They were designed for the high-speed express passenger services on the East Coast Main Line between London King's Cross and Edinburgh. They gained the name "Deltic" from the prototype locomotive, DP1 Deltic, which in turn was named after its Napier Deltic power units. Twenty-two locomotives were built: they dominated express passenger services on the East Coast Main Line (ECML) particularly London – Leeds and London – Edinburgh services until 1978 when InterCity 125 'High Speed Trains' were introduced. 1978–81 saw them gradually relegated to semi-fast or newspaper–parcel–sleeper services along the ECML (destinations including Cambridge, Cleethorpes, Harrogate, Hull, Scarborough and Aberdeen) plus occasional forays 'offline' – York - Liverpool Lime Street semi-fast and Edinburgh - Carlisle via Newcastle stoppers. Withdrawal came at the end of 1981. Six locomotives were preserved and are still running today.
Possibly an end of roll shot by the looks of things, especially as the light was quickly deminishing.
Nevertheless, nearly 31 years ago sees Class 45 No. 45150 (ex D95, I think this was the last in the 45/1 series) about to head South from York on 13th March, 1984.
Note also the HST approaching and the ubiquitous (around those parts) Class 31.
Class 170, 170510, in the new(ish), West Midlands Railway livery, departs Herefords platform 4, with the 09.40 to Birmingham New Street. 2nd November 2018.
Most definitely based on a Mercedes-Benz E-Class is this Chinese Police model by Aoli. These arn't your typical cheapo Chinese diecasts but are actually very well cast and detailed using decent gauge metal which probably explains its nice heavyweight feel. Part of a four vehicle Police themed set. Mint and boxed.
I don't know where it is but I'm pretty sure the loco is 33209.This would date to the early 1980s.
EDIT - Now identified as heading out of Salisbury towards Fisherton Tunnel with a Cardiff to Portsmouth service.24.6.83.
PKP Ty51 Class 2-10-0 No.Ty51-223 at Wolsztyn Depot, 18 November 2017. 212 were built by Ceglielski in 1953-58. The last was withdrawn in 2001. They had 4'9" driving wheels, 76 sq.ft. grate area, 25"x27.5" cylinders, 227 psi boiler pressure, and weighed 117 tons. They were a Polish-built version of the 1947 US-designed Ty246 Class, 100 of which were built in 1947 by Baldwin, Alco and Lima for Poland's post war needs.
This three car track ultrasonic track inspection set got away from me before I could get down the platform to take its picture. My notes tell me that one of the bridges south of Carlisle station was being replaced that weekend so perhaps this was the reason for its visit.

The command to open envelopes is given and firsties burst with emotion after seeing their new branch insignia Nov. 20 during the branch notification ceremony at Eisenhower Hall Theatre. With the addition of Cyber, cadets now have 17 commissionable branches they can enter after graduation. DMI provides a four-year education and mentorship program designed so cadets can make informed decisions on their branch preferences, but ultimately, branching is determined on the needs of the Army. This year, 96 percent of the Class of 2015 received one of their top five choices and 80 percent of the class received their top branch preference. Branch Night for the Class of 2015 included remarks from the commandant of cadets and retired Lt. Gen. Joseph DeFrancisco, Class of 1965 graduate and recipient of the Distinguished Graduate award. The next day, firsties were welcomed and briefed by branch commandants, and Brig. Gen. James Rainey, Chief of Infantry led a forum on gender integration and another briefing on Ranger School and its critical role in leader development. Photo by Mike Strasser/USMA PAO
