Gary, wondering if you ever considered having a go with a Class 17 Clayton in Loadhaul? Fancy giving it a go?

 

Sorry for the delay in responding. The source image isn't of the highest quality so I'm regarding this as a draft. If anyone can provide a better quality source image (1-2 Mb or larger), I would be happy to have another go:

Hi All

 

I've added three version of the Vossloh Eurolite to my Flickr site. This is the six-axle version with a different cab design to those ordered by DRS (I will do the four-axle version when I get a suitable high-resolution base image):

Apologies for reviving this, but I've had a go, it's not the best mind... also had a bit of a head start by using the LLB one from ficticious liveries - original pic isn't mine.

how about the Blue pullman in BR maroon livery, small yellow panel, think the clacton units.

Great idea but the ball is in your court to provide an appropriate source image, which must be your own copyright. Further guidance here (others may be less demanding in terms of image specification):

Apologies if this message has already appeared but it seems to have got lost in the ethernet. Use of a Creative Commons image may be acceptable to others, but I've already stated my requirements. Essentially if I am going to spend time preparing a piece of quality artwork (and unless I am paid to do so), I expect to be able to decide how the final image is used, free of any pre-conditions that I have not agreed directly with the original copyright holder. However the biggest problem would be finding a suitable high-resolution image (indeed any image) of this particular subject on a Creative Commons basis - but I would be delighted to be proved wrong. If I did have a suitable images, then I would be thinking about Intercity Swallow, Virgin Trains and perhaps the so-called 'fag packet' First Great Western.

Nice work, but unfortunately not one of those photos is of the EuroLight.

Those are all of the larger Euro 4000, which is not just a 'different cab design", but a completely different and larger loco.

 

The Eurolight is based on a different chassis, is shorter, significantly lighter, has a different side profile, different cabs (as you mentioned), different powerplant and of course is a Bo-Bo.

The UKLight varies again from the Eurolight, with a lower profile body, shorter side panels and different cabs and ends.

 

Still, I liked the images.  :good:

Thank you, this is very helpful.  I wil update the captions to reflect the information that you have provided.

The 50 in scot rail is quite fetching

 

maybe not as weird as may initially seem!

 

the D400s were touted as possible motive power for the edinburgh-glasgow push-pulls in the very early '70s, but the speeding up of WCML services meant they were needed to double-head the glasgow expresses north of crewe.

 

whilst based on the LMR, they did see plenty of action to perth/inverness, often on Motorails
