Well as i have to leave feedback for my christmas present my new B12 has to stay out until i run it, so i took a few snaps of her before she gets tested and put away. :wink:

She is seen alongside two Bulleid Merchant Navy loco's, 35005 "Canadian Pacific" in BR Blue and 35028 "Clan Line" in BR green. I should have got my blue A3 and Princess out for a nice BR blue line up. :P

:o I remember seeing one of those in a set with some carmine and cream clerestory coaches, and thinking "surely not!" I know BR were experimenting with liveries but did this combination really ever happen?

It is indeed from a set, not too sure how new the set is though, i dont think the blue happened with the B12's, just the main express locos like the unrebuilt Merchant Navy's, Duchess's, A3's etc.
