Fowler4f Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 What was the colour that breakdown steam cranes were painted in CIE days. I have purchased a Bachmann Ransome & Rapier 45T steam crane from rails of Sheffield discounted by 34%. TIA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CIE logos etc. l should have put an A Class loco instead of 121. Edited June 5, 2023 by Fowler4f 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The UTA painted one ex-GNR one in red, and NIR painted the NCC one maroon. CIE purchased two ex-British Rail cranes in the 80s (?) and they were yellow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
