Some loco pix.

It has been a while since I posted pictures of individual locos, so here are a few of the Parnhams collection.

5562 Alberta, a standard Peco Jubilee to look at but in fact a "Bitza" as it is made of the good parts of three and then has had the livery corrected- it was red when the body was bought- and an identity change.
LNER 3238 is a Graham Hughes kit on the wrong Pannier Tank chassis, which fits it better than the correct one!. It was started by me then finished by Mr Grumpy who also lettered it.

LMS 3726 is the highest- numbered 2F in the original number series that I could find a picture of to confirm its status in about 1939. It is basically a standard Union Mills job but has been repainted and weathered. It did have a cab stanchion on this side but has lost it- another job to do before Grantham show!
