Subtle, eh?

At least it'd rid them of the faded mark where the Virgin shield logo was

cheers

Very subtle indeed.....

Cheers for that GD, on recollection 47461 is incorrect for 470, but 835 and 079 should be right

Argh I need a body with sealed beam lights at one end for a respray into 47470, but sods law dictates they're only available on limiteds as of yet (47079 and 47461).....might have to spend a bit more cash, or hope they get 47535 wrong

Picked up my 47474 from Arcadia this afternoon - I had a few worries about this one considering the poor marker lights and headlight on the DRS 57 and BR Blue 47s however I had no reason to worry. Bachmann have got it spot on this time it seems - both ends have the right marker lights, and right scale hi-intensity lights. The livery is well applied (although mine will not stay in it for long) and having stood the loco next to ViTrains and Heljan RES 47s it knocks the socks off both.....

It's just a shame they come in such crap boxes!
