    Hi Sean,

    We never showed a pre-production version of this loco? We did show A46, which is in the darker lined green livery? https://irishrailwaymodels.com/collections/a-class-locomotive/products/a46-a-class-locomotive

    The A's wore two shades of green. This was matched to a genuine paint sample. 

    Cheers!

    Thanks Fran for the clarification. I managed to chase down my photo's from the show I first saw it and indead it was A46 that I saw. I might just have to order an extra A now...😜

  2. Guy's the model looks great but the colour looks like the wrong shade of green to me. I remember seeing a preproduction version of this at one of the shows and thinking that looked spot on. ( More of an apple green tone and less minty)

    I know there was probably many slight variations of the  green it ran in with added rail dust and grime etc... but somehow this tone looks a little cool instead of the warmer tone I feel it should be.

  3. Looking good there George, roof looks great. What gloss coat do you use to seal it. I applied Humbrol gloss coat to mine before xmas and its still tacky and that was after 5 mins of stirring it. ( Humbrol never again!!)
