43367 'Deltic 50 1955-2005' leads the 13.54 Newark Northgate to King's Cross through New Southgate station. As 43167, the power car was named in October 2005 and it has carried the nameplate since, an occurrence that is not particularly common as numbers change and new operators take over. As this power car will be withdrawn soon it would be nice to think that the nameplates could be removed and donated to the Deltic Preservation Society, but as a life member, I have a vested interest I suppose!
