I was gonna make the dash to Man until I discovered it was ex 40+42, seen many times


Nice to see her in this scheme though, lovely shots

Rare and smart shots

Thanks for the comments guys. Really please with the Tamron 150-600 now I'm getting use to it. Only draw back for me so far in the minimum reach being 150. Still that's a good excuse to get another new lens.

The Sigma 50-150

2nd shot's a peach...

Really?? You didn't go to see an incredibly rare Nigerian machine just because it's merely a repainted German one? Each to their own I guess.

Nice pics, a great catch, I'd have been there like a shot if it had been nearer.

That's Frame spotters for you! They are a fickle bunch

I believe it returned to MAN after departure yesterday due to avionics malfunction. Presumably still there this morning.

Even if I collected frames/regs (gave up years ago), I'd have gone just to see the colour scheme.

But this must look better than the lizard schemes ?
