Mugsy Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 I have had an O Gauge Class 47 repainted and modified as a Virgin Trains "City of Bristol".(not a dealers re-paint). Quite an exciting project. Also completed are two Mark 11's coaches. Submitted for your interest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

47707 Holyrood Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Thank you.....when you knew 844 which line was she running on? Was it in BR Green or Blue? Thank you. I only knew 844 when she was in Intercity swallow and virgin liveries. Managed to get a couple thousand miles behind her. (being a 47 basher) Sadly she got 'cut' in 2004 after. It was meant to be converted into a class 57 (307) but 'BRUSH' found that she had a twisted chassis, which was the result from an accident earlier in life although didn't prevent the loco from running in everyday service.
