"Doctor Follet" should read Doctor Follett.
The train in question is Castle Class engine 4073, "Caerphilly Castle".
The diesel loco seen is Warship Class engine D600, named "Active".
Thanks!
"M/S of the new diesel locomotive" - this is the Warship class engine D808, named "Centaur". (NOTE: This replaces my earlier post, which identified the engine as D600, "Active", which will need removing from the tags).
