Steadfast Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Oh I don't know...Loadhaul on a 60 looks like it was designed around the loco's shape jo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gerbil-Fritters Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 does anyone else find Flickrs search facility almost entirely useless? I can enter fictitious liveries, nse class 67, user names etc to my heart's content and it can't return what I'm actually looking for. Even Cornish Triang Paul's clickable link returned a 'page not found' error. It's actually easier to find a flickr image using google image search instead...

Nobby (John) Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Frankly, I reckon that Loadhaul was probably one of the worst liveries ever, gaudy and unrelated to the lines of the locos it adorned. It always reminded me of crudely printed packaging for biscuits or some other product. Still, life would be boring if we all liked the same things. Have you ever been to specsavers!! When is was Mainline, Load Haul and the other regional offereings the Black, Orange and Yellow was by far the best livery, suiting the 37's and 60's very well indeed. But then again i do agree with your last line................ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sheep Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 has anyone seen / able to do a 37 in LMS 10000 livery? preferably one without split head code trying to see if I can modify a 37 into being 10000 thank you Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornish Triang Paul Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 I find it strange that nobody has done any bus/coach liveries on railway subjects. Often wondered what Bristol's Cityline or Badgerline would look like on say a 153 or HST. Western National flags on the Night Riviera ?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Flying Pig Posted February 25, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 25, 2012 (edited) Unsurprisingly, that looks very dapper, as does his 'Deltic'. I'm a big fan of BTC black on 1950s diesels, but the EE type 3 looks good in production Deltic green too.

Kelly Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 BTC black and silver is a very good livery for those sort of locos. I always liked two-tone green over BR Blue, seemed to work better for some locos, especially the Deltic and that 37 looks good in that (as well as BTC).

northernblue109 Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 (edited) Thanks for the interest in my northernblue109 collection. I've read this thread with interest and noted some interesting images. It's great to see other people sharing their work.

Dr Gerbil-Fritters Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Garry, have you ever done an Irish big GM (071 class) in BR banger blue - I've read somewhere they were under consideration for BR at one point... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Steven B Posted March 2, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 2, 2012 Never mind different liveries. What about different mechanical layouts? Maybe a Pacer running as an articulated unit on three bogies? Happy modelling. Steven B. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Satan's Goldfish Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Here's one for you guys with photoshop skills. Towards the end of their days Deltics were more into regional work down to kings cross. What if they'd been kept for that roll once displaced and spread further away? And rather than the standard 'Regional Railways' livery that was pasted onto 31s, 37s, and 47s, they'd had a nice coat of 'EXPRESS' in the style of class 158s? Points for ideas, i'd like to see what my old green lima example could look like! Also, randomly, how about a RES 91? from both sides....... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold griffgriff Posted March 27, 2012 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 27, 2012 I can't remember if it was a 'Railway World' or a 'Railway Magazine' April fool from 30 years ago but it went along the lines of Class 76 locos replacing 33's on the Waterloo Exeter ... now I wonder what a 76 would look like in NSE? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
northernblue109 Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Waterloo-Exeter seems rather unlikely (converted to third rail pick-up presumably). The Great Eastern lines out of Liverpool Street perhaps, prior to their conversion to AC or if the latter had not happended. I don't have a Class 76 to work on but may try NSE on a 77 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
trisonic Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 BR really tested EM1's on the Liverpool Street to Shenfield line hauling suburban stock under the DC lines before the Woodhead route was open. Plenty of photos available too. Best, Pete. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold griffgriff Posted March 31, 2012 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 31, 2012 Waterloo-Exeter seems rather unlikely (converted to third rail pick-up presumably).... That was the idea... dual voltage with recovered overhead from Battledown onward to Exeter But it would be nice to see ... in terms of age it would fit nicely with the Island line LT stock Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
trisonic Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Here's a photo of one at Harold Wood on the Liverpool Street (ex.

stewartingram Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Here's a photo of one at Harold Wood on the Liverpool Street (ex. GER mainline) line: http://en.wikipedia....-Brooksbank.jpg Best, Pete. And going slightly off topic - notice the effects of the lighting in daylight? A "G" class Light Engine headcode, with a disc surrounding the lower centre light, but all 4 lights, with I believe white painted "reflectors", all (not) showing at about the same brilliance. Heljan (and all purchasers) take note with your W&M railbus! Stewart 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
