    Nice to see something slightly different in the finishing of the fuss free coach. The cynic in me does wonder, as it's a contract job, whether the wartime finish works out slightly cheaper, sans lining and with slightly less lettering...

    LNERCA has exhausted its stock of some transfers necessitating identity changes.

    But as the NYMR didn't want it lined then really post 1941was really the only option.

    Yes, but it took me to Facebook. Any attempt to look at the pictures in detail asked me to log into Facebook.

    Ahh I see. When you click on the picture it asks you to login. If you refresh the page it gives you the opportunity to close the login popup. That works for me.

    I see... thanks... clear now. It was the way those three pictures were put together in the post in this thread which confused me, as 3087 hadn't been mentioned in the earlier post.

    Thinking about the goings-on in the NYMR thread, though, are these carriages being restored just to sit in a shed...?
