Hi, That's a rather nice loco. How wonderful to get that as a present, your very lucky. So I looked up the model number, BR Chromatic Blue with sound.............So it sounds, oops, like a dapol sound decoder, and Chromatic Blue was used only on a few locos between BR Green and the more usual BR Blue. SYP on the description refers to "Small Yellow Panel" instead of full yellow ends more normally seen with BR Blue. You mentioned the Headcode at each end of the loco in the video, did you know BR started setting them to the loco number when they stopped using them...........Just something I have seen in many Western photos. Anyway, a lovely model, sounds amazing, should be a useful loco. All the very best and thanks Dave.
Thanks for the kind comments Dave, Yes, it’s a nice model.Some of the photos I have seen. They were really run down dirty and tatty towards the end of their service. Thanks for watching Richard
