    You clearly missed my “ ;) “
    As it happens I equally dislike dull BR Green, though I do like BR Blue. I’ve cleaned Tornado in all three liveries, the Blue is my favourite, closely followed by Apple Green.
    My first two mainline tours were behind Pegler’s FS in Apple Green, so that might also colour my judgement, plus I never saw a loco in BR service in their cowpat green. :D

    No, I spotted it, but I thought I'd have a bit more fun. :)

    I like the BR Blue, and it suits Tornado. It's also the livery 60163 would have been turned out in if it had been built by BR.

    Hardly. As I lived in Mid Sussex as a youngster I can remember being bowled over by Stepney's eye catching "green" colour before young Tom was even born:eek:. It is probable that good taste is just synonymous with the name James;)

    As my younger brother is a James and is unaccountably not interested in railways, I’m not entirely sure of that!

    I should check if we are related! ;) (Despite now living in deepest Wiltshire, my family is - on my father's side - from Sussex).
