NickL2008 Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 18 hours ago, SRman said: Hi Nick. If you mean D6704 that had factory-fitted sound, i.e. Accurascale's own sound project. I'm not sure who provided that for them - possibly legomanbiffo (guessing! Edit: Jamie Goodman - see McC's answer below), but it is different to the other ones from Bif that are in the same video. Yes that was the one, I think the ESU speaker has a bit more clarity. I will of course add this to 37714 also when it shows up. @McC thank you also for clarifying!

It's very asymmetrical, even down to the marker lights on the front. I prefer the red end (snigger!). It's a little strange that the radiator grilles are white, but the bodyside grilles are grey to hide the dirt. Edited January 26 by 97406 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold adb968008 Posted January 27 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 27 (edited) So for 37418 thats Green Blue Large Logo - 'An Comunn Gaidhealach' Railfreight Petroleum - ‘Pectinidae’ Regional Railways - ‘East Lancashire Railway’ EWS EWS - ‘Pectinidae’ Large logo but without the logo or the numbers or a name (c2 years) Large Logo Unnamed Large Logo - 'An Comunn Gaidhealach' Loram Unnamed 59 years old, not bad for a loco thats pitched into a ditch, rebuilt, withdrawn, preserved, reinstated… Edited January 27 by adb968008 2 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil. Wasted money on a rather poor paint scheme. Looks very amateurish and boring. Couldn’t decide on what colour the grills should be, ‘Red no, black no, white! What do you mean white!’ reminds me of the corporate bus colours of a 1980s in Leicester red, black and grey. The logo is just dreadful. The block font is dull as dish water, with the rather unimaginative logo looks like a trainee graphic designer was given the job at 2 o’clock on Friday afternoon. The poor thing needs rescuing and repainting into triple gray rail freight scheme. Or something equally handsome.

RMweb Gold BR Blue Posted January 27 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 27 The new colour scheme on 37418 is not great at all. It was in the much superior Large Logo paint scheme when I was lucky enough to be propelled by it. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a bit like that Porterbrook 47 livery from the early days of privatisation. Rubbish livery, rubbish way to run a railway! At least the 37 is rescued a little by the dark grey extending from the roof onto the bonnet tops. Photo from the excellent Flickr page of 37190 Dalzell.

While the odd celebrity or one-off is nice, personally I'd much rather see a whole load of everyday locos in the more standard liveries 8 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
