Good to see the "Battle of Britain" Class style nameplate too. Very nice touch. :smile:

Very good! Good to see an express passenger class 91 locomotive get a decent name and a fitting nameplate.

Although the class 91s will probably only be around for another 10 years or so, would be good to see a number of them named after famous British aircraft.

The only one I've seen painted up is the 'Flying Scotsman'. Would be nice to see a few more.
