Strangers under the wires?

We have refurbed Baby Deltics coming this way from the FOundry. Pics of new 37s, and D200 documented delivered this way. It is quite possible, but not confirmed, Deltics were delivered that way. We do have D9010 appearing at Sheffield Victoria 1965 03.12.65
1V67 18:40 York - Swindon, to Sheffield Victoria and 0D01 Sheffield - Doncaster.

55012 worked a special from Tinsley that had been brought in by a pair of 76s, so must have been under the wires. https://www.sixbellsjunction.co.uk/ The Yorkshire Terrier.

Tinsley rarely had Deltic visitors for the wheel lathe.

The also worked the Shrewsbury-York TPO to Stockport, but I'm unsure if this went thro' Guide Bridge?

Sadly no Deltics are known to have worked through the tunnel, except perhaps on delivery
