37670 and 37419 in DBS Red

Post by bruce16 »

Hi guys,

Was browsing the internet and found these photos of the newly repainted pair 37670 and 37419 they look really good, obviously these are not my photos but thought I would share the link to let people see what they look like now

Personally, I find that a vile red. It's just far too bright for my liking.

Please take a look at my photos of steam, buses and diesels etc

Myself,i ain't too keen on it. I don't like the red and the front end may as well have a Swashsticker on it. However it has to be said they look clean and you would never believe they are almost 50 years old!

Yeah cos everyone or thing from Germany is instantly a Nazi. Its just the name of a company and quite rightly they want to paint it on their locos. Nobody complained that EWS were owned by a bunch of Americans did they. Personally i think its a great improvement on the drab and dreary maroon and yellow, and makes the locos look almost modern.

I was joking..... :roll: My opinion is that EWS is better than DB will ever be,it had a proper colour combo and the locos can look modern anyway if they were kept clean etc. Once they get on the RHTT's they won't look so nice!
