    Slight correction here Neil; D6123 was a Class 29 [the prototype which was fitted with a replacement Paxman engine and carrying 2-tone green livery] at this time whilst subsequent Class 29s were identified by having a 4-character indicator panel fitted. The initial clue is the 2-tone livery that only Class 29s received but no Class 21 ever received corporate blue livery as far as I can tell.
