    If you're not careful, you may get what you ask for...

    OK, you asked for it, David. This one we will blame on you.

    A representation of BR EMU 320307 in Glasgow City Transport livery (a few years earlier than in reality) and with a nameplate commemorating the cultural diversity of Glasgow's suburbs, in this case the suburb of Govan, home of the infamous Rab C.Nesbitt.

    Have just re-uploaded 47703 in ScotRail livery after I discovered I had left a previous number and nameplate on one side!

    I've given up waiting for there to be a useable air-braked MK1 coach that works with BOTH Livery Designer and Formation Designer, so I've resorted to MK2 coaches for my Weedkiller train. These are representations of the 3 coaches I need:

    Like the way you make your (especially BR) logos big and then make them small, I made the mistake of starting small and it’s so blurry, like this class 40 I have to redo at some point dc7e48ae-5104-4898-8108-7fa987ec7d50.png

    That's the best way to do any logo. If you start with it big, it makes it easier to create any minute details the logo needs before you scale it to the size it needs to be. It's a technique I do as well, and it really helps (especially with more complex logos) :).

    It works really well on Class 40s and 47s, but not so much on 08s!
