      2807 will be going to the South Devon Railway for Xmas and needed to be in black to match the "Polar Express" image. It will remain in GWR wartime black for 2 years before going back into GWR green. We don't know for certain whether 2807 was actually painted black during WWII but 3850 certainly was as it was built in 1942 and would have been outshopped in that livery. The 2 locos look very similar, but 2807 is much older of course, having been built in October 1905! She was shedded at Cardiff Canton for most of WWII.
