Johnson Street IEMD Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 (edited) 5 hours ago, Squirrel Rail said: Will be EWS There are so many connotations for EWS, at least 15 different numbers, 90017, 018, 020, 023, 026, 028, 029, 030, 031, 032, 034, 035, 037, 039 and 040. Several had different names, ie 90020 "Sir Michael Henry" and then "Collingwood" and then there is the DB ownership era ones with the faded decals. My favourite is 90037 but I'd also like 90017, 90023, 90030, 90031 or 90032 Kat@johnsonstreetIEMD Edited October 1, 2020 by DBC90024 Missed out something Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrel Rail Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 I like the look of 030 with the Crewe Works nameplates especially when they were red. The faded ones are good to do - just depends on getting the decals. I will keep the updates coming!! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Jerry, I was originally going to do that for my next DB90 in an ex-EWS DB style just like what 90037 was like but with a fictitious nameplate for my depot Johnson Street IEMD instead of Crewe locomotive works but in the same red style ... but I think Ben struggled to get the numbers sorted. It's still my intention to do something similar to that maybe with an rfd 90 as db do still have several, one if which was due to be reinstated to traffic and this was 90027 which is in really tired rfd/EWS triple grey at present in the Long term sidings at crewe. I actually have some faded 90 decals on ebay at the moment for 90020 and 90039 which may be applicable somehow. Kind regards Kat Edited October 1, 2020 by DBC90024 Missed something Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
