RMweb Premium newbryford Posted June 23, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 23, 2013 A few more from me. All different details. The unique 66001 - 0K05 Carlisle-Crewe at Whalley - note the extra air pipe across the front and the arrangement of hold-down lugs 66002. 6L-something at Whalley - along with 66001, this cannot be fitted with a swinghead buckeye and has a different arrangement of hold-down lugs 66003, a full production version loco - emerging from the undergrowth at Clitheroe Cement works to cross West Bradford Rd with 6S00 to Mossend And here's 66122 shunting at Peak Forest - note the tail and marker lights are on - this is what you get if you run a DC fitted loco on DCC!

It never shuts up!!! Got a donor model to do this one as thanks to my penchant for oddballs and one off's. Can't make up my mind what shade of blue the main colour is though...
