Deltic Class 55 No. 55009, renamed for this tour as 55013 'The Black Watch', passes bridge 33, south of Colton Junction, on 19th August 2023 with the Coronation Deltic, a UK Railtours charter returning from Scarborough. Booked to run to King's Cross via Lincoln and Sleaford, the special was 60 minutes late at Doncaster and despite running via the ECML, was still 71 minutes late at Peterborough, after being rescued by the ECML Thunderbird at Retford, eventually terminating at Finsbury Park.
