LNER BTK 3669 on it's first day in service in 2015, Atlantics picture shows how it has weathered in that time.

Are those white grab handles on the Thompson brake correct? I'd have expected teak brown or black.

Your picture of the buffet car on the turntable is the one I use for my teak effect as is shows the colour variation and not
a pronounced grain as sometimes modelled.
Anyway here are a few more from my collection of photos.

There are some really useful photos on Flickr taken on the Highley curve on the Severn Valley Railway. Look for photos by Hugh Llewelyn and others.

Also worth comparing with Steve Banks' topic of the coaches: http://steve-banks.org/prototype-and-tr ... ak-coaches

I took quite a few of the GN Diagram 164K. A wonderful restoration.

These were posted on Facebook by a user called Rick Roper. No photographer credited so I assume they're his.

Jonathan,
whilst I agree that these photos are all useful, they do not reflect the truth of life in either the GNR or LNER,
where the varnishes were not as UVB protective as they can now be, plus of course there was much more coal about
and hence sulphorous steam. Even the Steve Banks photos show carriages not in the spring of their lives.
Plus we all need to remember Scale colour.
