silversteellady liked MuzTrem's post in the thread 6024 King Edward 1.
With its cut-down boiler mountings and slimline cylinders, 6024's appearance is no longer 'authentic' for any part of its working life. So, arguably, it really doesn't matter what colour they paint it now...

Not sure they were an outlier MHR, Swanage, WSR were all running steam at the time as well as the IOWSR.

silversteellady liked Breva's post in the thread GWSR General Discussion and Operations.
