I like it.
I once had my photo taken on the footplate about halfway between the cab and the deflectors, on 60514, Chamossaire, one of New England's finest, absolutely filthy, at Doncaster shed, 1960. I was eight.

I'd love a 7mm model of it.

You don't need to duck too far Jordan the LNER had far more Green engines than Blue. Me on the other hand, I have the LNER blue paint, I just need a loco to go with it

 

[Rob Pulham]

Sorry John, in the banter I forgot to say lovely Loco, what ever the colour!

Wrong colour Blue for Merlin. Oh dear, there goes any chance of being allowed to post photos of that engine.

That reminds me, I could murder a brew!

It does look good mate but would look even better in blue , mark about that brew they have another use you can cook bacon and eggs on a clean shovel cause they can't do much else ( ducks for cover under Di woodhams scrap pile)

Nice model!, I prefer the A2/2 myself, with V fronted cab and mini deflectors, often considered one in 1:32 but not enough info as yet.

Was an A2/4 the version fitted with an ETH supply?

Impressive looking model mind
