    Bit of a long shpt, this, but would anyone be able to identify the green and purple 08 at the back of Crown Point shed? I went past it several times on my recent Norfolk holiday but it never came out to play (unlike Cotswold Rail 08847 which was more obliging).

    At Norwich CP, 08874 is in green & purple Silverlink livery.
    Makes a change to have different liveries for similarly named locos. Usually a pairing such as 47 & 74 are identically coloured (just to confuse us).

    Thanks SO much - I must have gone past it 3 or four times but, as it was mostly hidden behind the shed I couldn't get it with my binoculars.
