On a similar note, has anyone dated pics or details of 57307 in the DRS "Cable Thieves" livery on the GW mainline?

It would be great to know what its use on the line was, what it was hauling, and the "tail" loco /livery if doing a "top and tail", if these details are not clear from the pic?

 

Many thanks

Best regards

Paul

Brilliant photos. 57313 looking splendid in it's newly applied livery of Northern Belle with West Coast logos.

Doesn't 313 look much smarter with the yellow end reaching the bottom of the cab front. Small difference from 601 but a big improvement to my eyes

I hadn't noticed, but upon looking I see what you mean. I agree, I think that having the Maroon around the cab end windows is nice but then further down below the windows the yellow looks much better rather than the yellow, then Maroon on 601.
