Double Bugger :roll:

Don't know why, I always thought the the smoke deflectors/smokebox sides were black !!!

I think this loco will give Hornby a big boost in profits, will be interesting to see how big an impact it will make.

The livery looks superb from what I can see in the photos of the 'posh' version and appears to be a better green than Sandringham, more like that applied to the A1s.

However, it definitely appears to have moulded handrails on the cab sides and the tender. A very disappointing aspect in view. I have emailed Simon Kohler on this matter.
