D5910, on display, Barrow Hill Roundhouse 
 The team working to recreate one of British Railways' early and least successful designs that were later dubbed the Baby Deltic (later to become Class 23) is progressing well based on the appearance of their efforts located on Barrow Hill's roundhouse turntable. However, the former and heavily modified Class 37 body, now numbered D5910, is really no more than a shell with a huge amount of work needed to prepare and fabricate the interior before any thoughts about reinstalling the unique nine-cylinder Napier engine. The group who is undertaking this work have done an amazing job so far to recreate this long-forgotten, fascinating and unique piece of railway history.
