This cutaway illustration of the Napier Deltic diesel engine by illegible, shows the triangular arrangement of the piston banks and the opposed-piston design.

In the mid 1950's my parents both worked in the offices at the West London Napier factory. I inherited a lovely static model of a Deltic engine. I'll take some photos......
