UK East Coast - 2 generations of diesel traction

[John Ashworth]

There's an interesting picture here of two generations of diesel traction from the East Coast Main Line. A GNER Class 43 and preserved Class 55 Deltic D9000, both on hire to Virgin Cross Country, are away from their home ground in Birmingham in July 1998.

All we need now is to repeat this picture with Tornado and we'd have three generations of East Coast traction...
