Britannia works plates ?

[Staffordshire]

 

   Britannia Class loco's,   basically the question is,  were there any works  plates fitted to the Britannia class locos and tenders ?  If yes, where were they situated ?

 

   I am having a  kit built in 4mm to recreate  70018 Flying Dutchman, whilst running on the Western region ...

 

  I have sourced the correct Smoke Deflectors and Etched nameplates and shed plates,  so are  there any other plates required,

infact is  anything else required ?

 

  Also dates 70018 ran with red nameplates would be useful.

 

   Many thanks, Ian

Loco works plates sit on the triangular visible part of the front frames

 

 

This is my neverwazza 2-8-2, but the principles are the same.

    Thanks to you both for the information ....

 

    I have actually ordered a set of Worksplates from Narrow Planet,  in my opinion very reasonable considering you have the opportunity for the exact/correct details.

 

    Just still need to know the dates that the Nameplates had Black Background and Red background ?

 

    Many thanks,   Ian
