9F Evening Star.

I have read that this 66 has also been donated or should that be claimed (???) by the NRM when its finished its commercial life.

As to how 'special' it is, I would say that as the final member of a class of loco that has revolutionised & dominated diesel traction in the UK for the last 18 years, it has as good a reason to become part of the National Collection as some of the members of the collection.

How long till the 00 gauge model comes out?

 

Never mind the 00 one, how am I going to get lining transfers to look nice on my 0 gauge one ? I can't paint lines by hand lol

 

Has David Wilcock been influencing the NRM / EWS ? ;-)


Keith

 

He can influence EWS (DBC) as much has he likes, the 66 is part of the GBRf fleet.

 

You beat me too the repossed.

 

Surely something in a made up pseudo livery of an organisation that never owned it, should not be in a national museum. That would not be a very good way to tell the story of the class 66 and it's operators. Maybe this 'shed' will be given a proper livery in a year or two. Creosote?

 

And another discussion ends up talking paint

 

There are too many Dusty Bin's already, they're called Class 321.....
