A couple of cladding sheets on the barrel have had fresh paint applied, but it's not really possible to tell whether it's green or black. In any...
It's not all bad, they've got another one coming soon as well!
I wouldn't have minded going to this, seeing as it's just an hour away. But I didn't realise it was being aimed at the premier dining class...
Whatever it is, at least it'll be authentic. Looks impressive enough as it is!
Nah, I can't read. Of course I bought it.
Popped into Smiths yesterday for a quick browse, saw a Scot smokebox sticking out from behind the other magazines... 'Ooo' thinks I, and pulls it...
They did a photo shoot with it, before it got pulled to pieces.
These came in very late on the Western, judging from photos I'd say about 42-43. They normally have the roundel, but you do see one or two that...
I see that Didcot isn't the only place to be donated old knickers! PAAAAAAAANTS ON THE FOOTPLATE! Ahem.
I don't think anyone is being hypocritical - being disappointed/annoyed that an engine is going out of ticket it perfectly understandable. The...
I also do this, it definitely improves the look. To be honest though I don't tend to wear them any more,as greasetops were something never used...
Guys, this part of the forum has barely opened, and already it's a case of 'when's this gonna be running, when's that gonna be running'... give...
Nah, only those engines painted during 42-45 were black. I don't know where this idea that they were always black has come from, but it am wrong!...
Yeah, I've been eyeing up that old 08 in the EWS yard for some time.... I think there's potential.
Hah - we were talking about that down the pub the other week! All we need now is to line out 3822 like No. 97, paint say the 48 in chocolate &...
That's quality, first time I've seen a propper photo of it in industrial use. The industrial chimney still lives on... as a flower pot!
And Trojan! Not sure how that was painted when in industrial use, though it managed to keep its name & numberplates.
It's not as if they're painting it pink and renaming it 'Hogwarts County', in any case its time at the colliery was just as significant as its...
If you're going to mix the two up, you really should do it properly; ie '7 foot 6 mil'. Who says metric and imperial can't work together?
If they cannot pivot, then surely they are not bogies? ;-) That said, you do often find older engines with fixed carrying wheels - Iron Duke for...
