If you have read Paul Gildersleve's excellent book 'Deltic Dynasty' then you will be aware that this intrepid Deltic disciple set himself an early goal of photographing the class at every station between King's Cross and York - on the 27th May 1978 Oakleigh Park was the location Paul found himself as 55017 (D9017) "THE DURHAM LIGHT INFANTRY" speeds through on the up fast nearing the end of its journey with the 1E05 09:00 Edinburgh - King's Cross service.
