That evokes a lot of happy memories Phil of the late 50s and early 60s at Newark or Carlton on Trent on the ECML that never to be forgotten A4 whistle as they raced towards Newark station. I remember the original Deltic in blue and yellow livery and also D0280 Falcon doing trials on that line, more than half a lifetime ago. I think Falcon was a light brown sort of sandy colour.
