They look fantastic, to me they ooze power and to hear them thundering through stations is a sound that I never get tired of hearing.

Long live the Deltic.
Love the split box type 3 ( class 37) They look like angry flared nostrils to go with the lovely growl !

I also like seeing the cold start videos on youtube of both the 37's and class 40 with their 4 exhaust ports for their V16 engine.
