I've done some modelling recently and here's some of my output:
1. Rail blue Bachmann 47 no. 47 701 Saint Andrew, as originally running in 1979, re-numbered and modified from 47 035 and fitted with a Bachmann sound chip. I own some Jouef Mk3s and a recently purchased DBSO to accompany the loco.
I wanted a companion to my identical sound-fitted Bachmann 47 470 Glenloy which was unofficially named in Oct. 1979 for only a few weeks, the only proof of its existence is a close up shot of its name:

2. Large logo Bachmann 37 424 Glendarroch, sound fitted, this still awaits its etched nameplates, this loco was re-numbered from Bachmann's 37 425 limited edition with Eastfield's scottie dog emblem.
3. Chipped and weathered a Hornby 101 blue/grey DMU, it had its outer couplings removed and its bufferbeams painted black.
No prizes for guessing Glen and Andrew being my names. A future project will be to model 37 326 Glengarnock in its large logo livery as named in 1986, I already own its later incarnation when it reverted to 37 111 in Railfreight Metals livery.
