The Diesel Gala returns to the North Yorkshire Moors Railway with three heritage Deltic locomotives ‘Alycidon’, ‘The Black Watch’ and ‘Eric’.
The North Yorkshire Moors Railway has confirmed the much anticipated return of its Diesel Gala from Friday, June 14 to Sunday, June 16, 2024. Alongside the announcement of the return of this popular event, the NYMR has confirmed the gala’s first guest locomotive, Deltic No. 55009 ‘Alycidon’, thanks to the Deltic Preservation Society . During the visit, No. 55009 is painted and numbered in the guise of long-scrapped Deltic No. 55013 ‘The Black Watch’.
The Diesel Gala in summer will feature a packed timetable including evening running, including three guest locomotives. Many services will also be offering a selection of beers and ciders served from the on-board buffet bars. As well as visiting locomotives, the NYMR home fleet of diesel workhorses will be on the schedule of services, including No. 37264 and D7628 ‘Sybilla’.
