I'm sure I'm not the only FRS member whose love of the railway was born in the preservation era, with green locos and red carriages. It was a...
Well, there's a blessing, at least. ;-) Ugly brutish things with hardly any relevance to UK, I can't understand why anyone likes them... Sent...
I believe 41.195 still exists in a steam centre. The one which was scrapped was superheated 44.021. The 4-4-0 is 18.051 and the 4-4-2T is 16.042....
Despite the thread title, the OP did ask for locos "built for BR or other British railway companies" so I think the Mersey loco qualifies. The ROD...
I believe I've heard the NB livery of that period described as "gamboge" which is rather a melifluous word, but I think describes a yellower...

Some fairly clear winners from that exercise. Glad to see the amazing work of the RPSI (and HRI) getting the recognition! Sent from my Pixel 3a...

Anyone going to have a hissy fit about this major lapse? Surely it's appalling?!?!? People in future decades are going to be misled, and claim...
Great to see it out. From the pic, and comparing to my pics from previous visits, it looks like the cab's been raised a bit, rather than widened:...
Erm, I think probably people can tell the difference between early 2000s and early 1950s... If someone mistakes a photo, or a paint layer, as...
I'd have prefer her to be in LMS livery, but frankly I was just delighted to see her at all! I quite liked the conceit of the BR red livery, it...
Thanks. I've read them both, but don't have copies myself, hence the question. An interesting mix, it sounds like. Sent from my Pixel 3a using...
Thanks: those were my guesses too. An interesting period! Sent from my Pixel 3a using Tapatalk
