55016, "Class 55", Deltic55016_20140329_0155016 Gordon Highlander at Great Central Railway, Quorn & Woodhouse

I had never seen a Travelling Post Office (TPO) in action before so it was an interesting feature at the recent diesel gala on the Great Central Railway.

Locomotive 55016 Gordon Highlander was given the task and made an impressive sight as it powered at speed non-stop through Quorn & Woodhouse station with a rake of bright red TPO vehicles. I also surprised myself by managing to capture reasonable photograph of the event.

Keywords: Class 55, Deltic
