Derek, did you see my pictures on the Borders Railway thread?

Yes , very nice they were too .

I still plan to get across one weekend , but work getting in the way .

Good to see her coming back, is the wartime black livery the intended finish? It seems out of place with the BR fitted double chimney and the German smoke deflectors really set the look of the loco it seemed to make an older model look very contemporary when done.

Black finish is temporary AFAIK, she will be in BR green eventually but the February runs are to happen before the painting is done.

Thanks good to know she will be looking her best.
