    J2049 - only 19 candidates. D prefix. Last digit possibly 6, might be D5516 (but very much a longshot). J3216 - I agree with 274. J5056 - too easy for a proper Spot-the-Deltic, it would be like a Spot-the-Ball with the ball still there!

    I think the candidates based on the name are either 55005 or 55010, the latter having only one nameplate at this time. Number is indistinct but last digit looks to be same as first and lettering a better match for 55005, so that's my choice.

    There is a Harescombe settlement (and parish) about a mile to the east, but this photo was taken in Haresfield village (and parish), looking north towards Gloucester.

    There is also something to think about in the description of C1484!

    J3717: Peak is clearly 45 002, helpfully renumbered at both ends, with class 03 lurking at the top. J3719: Second set does not look to be a class 101.

    Identifying the first loco should be easy but it's not. It might be 2000x, however last digit is barely visible. Clues to the ID are dents in the cab door below the handle and the two marks on the solebar, if that helps any!

    Yes, I think C726 has to be 9011. http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?app=core&module=attach&section=attach&attach_rel_module=post&attach_id=944629

    I think another is more likely.

    Hooray, another "Spot-the-Deltic" competition. Winnable, I reckon.

    201x5 leading, possibly 20195.

    I do like a green EE Type 4 with discs. The dog was evidently not a trainspotter, nevertheless almost certainly a wagger! 1092 EL is a Bournemouth registration and four numbers followed by two letters is a rare combination, apparently.

    I agree J5300 is 45144, based on number 451x4 and nameplate a good match for Royal Signals. J5992 has an easier number to read, I think, most likely 45119.
  13. Western Glory
    D5178?

    Apologies for wrongly questioning the captions.

    The earlier AC electric locos with sloping fronts looked the most stylish. Other nonsense deleted.

    From the nameplates, C1164 is 9021 without doubt and C1165 cannot be 9006 nor 9019.
  17. Western Glory
    Are you sure the number is dead right?

    Expand the image, but twice as much horizontally as vertically. The pic with 'thumbnail' below is 300% width & 150% height of the original and unsharpened.

    The fourth digit is most un-4-like. The "Broad Gauge Method" suggests 40096.
  20. Western Glory
    Correct, well done. J2085 must be D9021. It was the only Deltic with nameplate lettering longer on top row than bottom and number is too long to be plain 9021.
  21. Western Glory
    There is only one loco this can be and you need to get the number dead right to win this latest "Spot-the-Deltic" competition!
  22. Western Glory
    I think this is D567x, perhaps D5679, but not D5571.
  23. Western Glory
    86 207 does appear to have a yellow one. http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/uploads/monthly_10_2017/post-5613-0-98938300-1508509647.jpg

    Is the middle track at Dumfries station still there? The rusty rails in 1984 look ominous.
  25. Western Glory
    C435 definitely 352.
