This film from British Pathe has some great close up detail of the Deltic and a Class 20? plus interior coach colours.

Superb   loco    featured Poliss    would be nice  if it   was produced  by  Kato  in  N scale    i for  one would  be  a  willing customer for one    

The    other  loco   is  a  class   13   based   on   a class 08  i  believe   could be wrong  though  as  the loco  has  a cab   13's  where  used  as slave  units  with  the  cab removed  usually.

ill check the number of the shunter again, it may be one of the class 10 units which had i think a blackwell? engine fitted instead of the usual power units. one of these class 10's is preserved at the great central railway.
