A re built Scot for Trench Sidings

I have always liked the re built Scots and currently have one partly built Brassmasters one. At last years Scaleforum I had the chance to buy a completed Brassmasters one which was well built and a good runner. The problem was it was painted in LMS 1947 livery ( as 46115 Scots Guardsman) and therefore out of period for me. However a re paint has now been done and the loco renamed and numbered, followed by a light weathering.  Why 46148, well I saw it on the Stafford to Wellington line and was pulled by the loco on that route. Class 7s used to have a fill in turn after arriving at Shrewsbury and would run to Stafford and back before heading north from Shrewsbury with an express for Manchester or Liverpool.

Very nice indeed. I wonder how the builder (the late Phil Bax?) overcame the splasher clearance issues in P4?

Good spot David, I will have to ask Tony if he can confirm who the builder was. I shall have to look underneath to see the clearances.
