Hi All, We had to go to Locomotion yesterday to drop of some prints and things for Chris's exhibition and while we were there they had Evening Star there to commemorate the release of the Locomotion Models boxed set of both versions. Although not of great interest to me I thought it rude not to take advantage of the lack of crowds to take a few photos.
Great pictures Rob, to be honest I generally have no interest in Class 66 machines, they are not my cup of tea but when liveried up in Bronze Green (BR Loco Green) this engine looks quite majestic, I think Branson and culprits like him have a lot to answer for with their ridiculous combinations of tasteless colour and poor livery design ethic.
It does look great in lined BR green. The one done in BR large logo rail blue also looks surprisingly good.
