Deltic prototype DP1
As per another post today I was intrigued by a reference to testing DP1 with what looked like a converted EE locomotive.

I found a small reference to EE and "mobile test units".

Quote "due to start trials on the Settle and Carlisle on Monday 20th August 1956, which lasted into September. Coupled to a dynamometer car with up to 3 mobile test units to simulate load."

So far I can't find any details of what "mobile test units" were.
