Hi,
Can anyone tell me when these were withdrawn? I've a vague recollection of seeing one in the Birmingham area around 1962/3, but after all this time it could be a figment of my imagination!
I'm building a layout based sometime in 1963 and I'd like to include one. Come to think of it, I've never seen a photo of this pairing with a late BR crest on the tender?
I'd be gateful for any help.

Am I right in thinking that the older Mainline/Bachmann model is a long firebox version?
