Hudswell Clarke and Rogers factory livery?


Recommended Posts

I don't know about the 1870s but I have just completed a Hudswell Clarke 0-6-0DM from 1958, in 7mm scale.  In asking around, the colour was described as 'Light Brunswick Green' and the best match was deemed to be Darlington Green (Precision P51 - L.N.E.R. Loco' Green [Darlington Shade]), which is close to NER Green, so that is what I used.

I did put this image up on Facebook and a couple of friends have encouraged me to write some notes for others who may be planning to build this kit so I have been writing in instalments on the G0G Forum but I was wandering about also reproducing it here in UK Standard Gauge Industrial Modelling …

NER green with black and white lining out seems like a good choice.

 

Although the prototype would have been lined out in white, I used light grey (Humbrol No. 40 Pale Grey Gloss) because white appears rather too bright on a small model - it's worth thinking about when the time comes.  David
