An interesting assortment of photos and to a degree they take me back to my youth, except in those days everything was rail blue (no large logo) and there appeared to be Peaks everywhere you looked!

And the above photo to my mind shows some interesting ideas for weathering.

Real memories of my days at New Street, if I'm right it's one of Tyseley's "finest" and in fact another good example of a well weathered loco. (It always seemed to me that all 47's in the Midlands were tatty)

Doh!

Hi Jim

You're quite right - I saw the sparrow and promptly typed the wrong depot!
