    I rather like the swallow version. I doubt whether it will progress beyond photoshop.

    I wonder how well a HST would suit Blue Pullman livery ?

    quite cool, i think a HST with the buffer beams may look better.

    Needs something in the big blue area if the white isn't to be carried forward further, perhaps the Pullman crest would be nice.

    The original, has a "big blue" area but broken up by radiator grilles, they could paint some "mock" ones on.

    As ADB says, a buffer fitted version would look better.

    I've noticed that it is no longer going to the SVR for the 50th anniversary of the Westerns, it's diagram to be covered by Warship D821.

    According to a post on Facebook (from Ben) just now, it will not be available for the Cheletnham Flyer and 47773 will do the honours.
