Dear all

Back in the very early eighties I did a lot of bunking off school to take a vast number of Deltic photos, aiming to capture the last couple of years of these legendary locomotives. Thanks to Covid I've had a bit of time to go through the 10,000 or so negs and have posted the best online. They are perhaps a bit different to many of the online collections which exist. I haven't quite finished yet but will do soon. Anyway I hope those of you who were around at the time, or indeed anyone, will enjoy this window into a long-lost past.
