Deltic, Class 37, H/by RR class 73, Baccy. Class 121 Dr/car, and Baccy. class 108 DMU. It all depends on where things like the power handle are.

aeroplane Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 (edited) Last night was the first time 37425 has worked a test train in RR livery I think. So if you are getting the Accurascale 425, you can now model this (not my photo!) Edited June 3, 2022 by aeroplane 9 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Dicky L Posted June 7, 2022 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 7, 2022 Does anyone know time period 37027 Loch Eil carried the white stripe as seen on the Accurascale model.

RMweb Gold 97406 Posted June 7, 2022 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 7, 2022 (edited) Mine’s keeping its stripe. It’s a nice change from plain Banger Blue, plus I can summon up enough locos from that precise period if I want to. I tend to blur the edges (of the time period, not stripes on locos) a little bit most of the time, though. Edited June 7, 2022 by 97406 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fran It’s amazing when you look back how short those time frames actually were but seemed like forever at the time. 83 to 84 white stripe late 84/early 85 to early 86 large logo Early 86 de named as 37/4s took over 86/7 generally gone or converted to 37/5 or 7. All that in basically 4 years, I’ve been trying to work out how to run a white stripe with a large logo and it’s almost impossible yet only 12 months covers the period. However if you run a 12-18 month sequence you can buy loads! 2 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have wondered about renumbering it to 081 which I think went LL in mid/late 84 but not sure I’m brave enough. There’s also the option of trying to get the white stripe off and having plain blue with headlight but not sure how easy that will be either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
