Chrissaf Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 As a child, my mum used to drag me up to Kings X to meet our North East Coast relatives. The Class 55 Deltic was a common sight at Kings X....this would have been sometime around 1960 / 1963 give or take a bit..The very reason that I have a sound fitted Deltic on my layout......nostalgia.

Howbi Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 The Class 55 Deltic would be my choice also..........I'm not sure if this model is available from Hornby........check with some well known retailers, search for class 55 or Deltic.........HB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrissaf Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 My Class 55 is a Bachman [ 32-526DS ] with a factory fitted Loksound V4. It is a nice well made loco with all wheel drive. Very heavy with loads of pulling power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
