A Deltic on a Freightliner!! - 55015 (D9015) "TULYAR" was present at the Rainhill celebrations for three days during May 1980 and was used to haul various vehicles in the cavalcade. The event was to mark the 150th anniversary of the first trials for the Manchester - Liverpool railway, an event which saw George Stephenson's "ROCKET" chosen as motive power for the line. 55015 was later fitted with plaques to denote her taking part.
