Hi Russel,

 

Not sure this is really what you need but it’s the Hornby model.

I know that making a model of a model is a cardinal sin here on RMWeb but, assuming Hornby’s research is correct, it shows what lettering went where…
 

All the photo examples of the prototype that I can find on the web are so grimy that the lettering is obscured.

 

Cheers

 

Darius

There doesn't seem to be much online.

 

I take it you have found the SREmG website,

I would definitely recommend this. Search on eBay, second hand book sellers, etc. as they normally pop up for about £8.

Wish Hornby would do another run of these.

hi Jason,

 

I have the book but nothing useful in it I’m afraid.
