Lone_Star_Baby_Deltic.jpg

Description D5909 a Class 23 "Baby Deltic" which was the only example to be repainted in the then new rail blue livery. All of the other locomotives were painted green. This is a diecast model made from 1960 by Lone Star as part of their Treble-O-Lectric range. Collectors may consider it vandalism to repaint an old "collectable" - but as I had two of them, I didn't mind!
