Really happy with my Blue Circle Class 14 although would have preferred it not weathered, but unfortunately I'm a sucker for anything Blue Circle due to my Dad & Grandfather working at Earles/APCM in Hope.
Would love to get my 14 renumbered to D9505/D9534 - anyone know if they carried the same logo as D9526, namely
with number and works name changed in same font - or were the Hope pairs totally different?
Dont suppose anyone has any original photos?
On a similar theme I always though the pair were scrapped in Belgium, in which case where a pair of Class 14's returned to Hope for the open day in 2008
were there others surviving members of the class renumbered for the occasion?
Cheers
Paul.
