    Not my video, but this gives us a good look around D5705 and the progress being made.

    I'm a steam man and not a modern (!) traction enthusiast but here are a couple of diesel shots I took at Carlisle 1965 and 1966.
    I can recall the Metrovicks double-heading the Condor express Glasgow-London goods in the 1960s, and IIRC sparks & smoke from their running gear used to accompany them quite often.

    Can't help but think being able to drag it out for the ELR diesel gala did the restoration group a massive favour in raising it's profile massively! Looking forward to the day it, and it's shed mate the class 15 get to run under their own power.
