And recently she had a slight change in appearance, in the way of a yellow stripe added to the cab sides, this was used long ago when locos were'nt cleared to run south of crewe under the electric overheads.

Also photographed at her home, the west shed, butterly, midland railway centre

Oh and apparently she is going to be repainted into red over the winter...
 



Two and three are doing the right thing for me!
Cool renditions: better DR and colours! (y)(y)
 
Nice set,Michael. It almost looks like it's squeezing in between the trees and shrubs in the last one. Trackside maintenance has gone by the board these days.

Hi Michael.
I love the shunting manoeuvres shots. A great opportunity to get u fairly close.
She stands out well against the vibrant blue of the sky.

These give a sense of the size of the engine, which doesn't always come across.

Thanks all for looking and commenting,much appreciated.
