A Lyd! They haven't even finished the real one yet! I assume it will just be a Lew (top right in above picture) with a different name and number plate.
I have covered a variety of versions of the loco here and so it shouldn't take to long to sort one out.

If anyone can shed some light on what Lyd might look like, I will upload a Lyd version


Cheers, Chris

I'm afraid that yes the differences will be just the name and number! It will recieve the number 190.

Apparently Exe went for less because it only had a steel firebox!!!!

The worst was the baldwin Lyn - which sold for only £25. This was due to its wooden cab.

"Lot 13, Locomotive 'Lyn', built by Baldwin Locomotive Company, Philidellia, U.S.A. Working Order.... Sold For £25"

Unlucky 13... :(

Well, lets see.

Would that be this striped version
<IMG width="124" height="46" SRC="http://album.atomic-systems.com/showPic ... LydNSE.GIF">
Or this one?
<IMG width="124" height="46" SRC="http://album.atomic-systems.com/showPic ... /LydRR.GIF">
Or maybe you would like a BR blue version
<IMG width="124" height="46" SRC="http://album.atomic-systems.com/showPic ... /LydBB.GIF">
or even a BR mixed traffic black version
<IMG width="124" height="46" SRC="http://album.atomic-systems.com/showPic ... Rblack.GIF">

These were done some time ago before I got any good at redoing R32 graphics, and I was having a serious bout of Whatifism.

In fact I think I have an intercity version too

Yup, here we are
<IMG width="124" height="46" SRC="http://album.atomic-systems.com/showPic ... /LydIC.GIF">
Including, for some reason lost in the mists of time, multiple working jumpers :)

Super engines, Chris. Any plans for Lyn? (my favourite simply because she was the odd one out).
