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.
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.
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.
