Regional Railways makes a lot more sense, albeit less exciting. The lack of Wile E. Coyote on the side is a distinct disappointment. That's me booking myself in for a trip to Barnard Castle. Apologies for missing the first post about it. I'm a bit dead at the moment due to the early shifts I'm on Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold TravisM Posted January 30, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 30, 2021 Given that the JSA’s have been delayed by musical containers, I wondered if you have been given a revised eta for the Class 37 decorated samples? Are they being shipped by container or are you beating the queue and flown in? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold adb968008 Posted January 30, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 30, 2021 The real 37425 looks really good, but it would be nice if they nudged its cab side numbers up a little. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, there are few little differences in its livery from when it carried that before. For example, the lower grey extended up to the grill on the nose in '96, but now just below is blue and 37425 on the nose instead of just 425. Then of course there are the changes to the overhead warning signs. Still looks a cracking machine though Roy Edited January 31, 2021 by Roy Langridge Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fran Hi Fran, That’s really good news and I’m sure I’m not the only one who’s just itching to see the decorated samples, because unless their hideously wrong, the production will follow not long after.

I always thought about 5yrs later but I’m not saying I’m right. The 4’s in Scotland were mostly (all?) still LL in 86 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold adb968008 Posted February 1, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 1, 2021 (edited) I thought it started with 31410 “Granada Telethon” and 31439 (Not Yet Named) when they were repainted Regional Railways livery for Granada Telethons North West Charity train in June 1992 ? I remember seeing it on TV after college, then dropping everything to cycle to Bolton to watch it as I heard last minute it was coming through around 7 pm. 37414 followed in 1993, but as a Cardiff machine it didn't darken Manchesters door until March 93. The daddy, I suppose is 47475 with its Trans Peninne livery from the mid-1980’s. Edited May 16, 2021 by adb968008 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
