RMweb Gold big jim Posted April 17, 2023 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 17, 2023 Don’t have many memories of class 26/27, obviously being up in Scotland I didn’t see many of them as a kid, always used to love going to Carlisle though and seeing one sat in the sidings having worked to wigton with the chemical tanks I can only find 2 pics my dad will have taken back in the 80s, I don’t remember going with him on this trip, must have been the time he gorged on toblerone and drove to Dundee bare feet 15 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few of them did, there were also a few examples that ran around with white Inverness stags. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium keefer Posted June 21, 2023 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 21, 2023 Those 27s always seemed to be filthy - like the rear loco here, you'd often be hard put to see the lining or the painted window surrounds! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first-built '26' was an astonishing survivor - note its original unique higher number with no serifs on the D prefix, suggesting no repaint during the 13 years since construction. Even more remarkable was that during that time it was dual-braked but still emerged with its original paint finish intact - BRCW must have given their first BR diesel some serious coats of varnish! D5301 also lasted a similar time in green syp livery so perhaps that one was similarly shiny in 1958. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
