My dear Füsun,

I am so pleased that you like it! Thank you!!
Usually it would be dirty and black, but they have put a lot of effort into it.
It looks well in the sunshine!

Love Peter

Thank you Nick!!

Probably the most impractical of liveries for a colliery loco, but it certainly does look nice in the sunshine!

Best Wishes

Hi Andy,

Thank you so much for your visit here! I am very happy that you have enjoyed it. This is a Peckett 0-4-0ST, which has just emerged from a very lengthly rebuild. A very similar loco, built by Beyer Peacock can be seen here; www.ipernity.com/doc/2247998/44406072
(along with it's driver...)

Best Wishes

A lovely shot - what a pretty little engine. The colours make me think of Thomas the Tank Engine! It looks as if it has had an awful lot of care. Have a good weekend Peter

Hi Carol,

I am so pleased that you enjoyed it! Thank you so much!!
I don't know if it was supposed to be a Thomas look alike, or just a nice colour.
Most important is that you like it!!

Best Wishes
