I think she looks grand as a passenger engine, especially for branchline work. (eg, the cab/tender arrangement looks ok to run both ways). With some work to the cylinder arrangements, and possibly leading/trailing wheels, she could have beena half decent heavy frieght locomotive, or low speed, heavy summer train duties?
Thanks to decapod for creating this astonishing model of an anstonishing locomotive.

Don't hate me for making her pull passenger trains in my fictional land of preservation
