Many thanks for all the replies but this one stood out.

My interest is as I have a Weir 761.1 with both outputs using a 3055 and a 3055-2 in parallel, all Motorola. I replaced 1 of the 3055s a few years ago but this time it's a 3055-2 that has blown together with the 1R2 2.5W emitter resistor of the coupled 3055. Chicken or egg? The 3 that I have not so far replaced all look very original.
