I thought I might just explain about the Loco Lives series. This idea started with 47401, a loco I got to see many times during my spotting days....
Just 8 months later and 47126 was called to Crewe Works for ETH fitting. The loco emerged (around September 1974) as 47555, resplendent in BR...
In early 1974, D1717 received its TOPS number. Classified as a 47/0 i.e. with no ETH, the loco became 47126. By now its 2-tone Green livery was...
D1717 moves along to after 1967 and the addition of the full Yellow ends. This did nothing for the aesethics of the locos, but possibly saved a...
Apologies for this, but I've just re-uploaded 47493 as I had forgotten to colour the cabside handrails!
I'm returning briefly to a series I started a number of years ago with D1500 / 47401. I'm calling it the 'Loco Lives' series. It involves a look...
Just over a year ago, I uploaded 47494 to the CC, a Class 47/4 in 2-tone Green livery with full yellow ends. It was the only 47/4 ever to carry...

Typical ! The WSR have a gala day where Falcon meets Lion and I'm holidaying in Hornsea! :o
It wasn't something I knew about. I was looking through a book about LNER named locomotives and came across this list of the D11/2s. The names...
:D
'Luckiemucklebackit' surfaces ! With Glasgow naming their Class 320s after TV characters (see 320307 'Govan - Rab C. Nesbitt'), Haymarket Depot...
The final Class 86 for the moment: What if... BR had given the RTC at Derby a Class 86 to play with? This is 86901 in the later InterCity-inspired...
You wish! With those letters you could get at least 17 points! Tomtrainboi is correct, it was the name of a 1924-built LNER D11/2 locomotive....
Did you actually know that, or did you Google it? :D
OK, a teaser: What does the name 'Luckie Mucklebackit' have to do with the Railways? :cool:

Hi ajpardy. You can access all my stuff on Creators Club. Search for PD7
Thought YOU might! :D Here is 86502. The nameplate was a pain! But I'm happy with it. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
So, was checking my 86/5s ready for upload and discovered I had not named 86502! It should be 'Lloyd's List 250th Anniversary' and for some...
Usually the way - it means you have to go through the entire scenario again to check the last 2 minutes! :o
I've had these following locos sat in my Livery Editor for a few months, so now they're ready to come out to play. In the late 1980s, BR Freight...
