Hi,
As an update to my original question regarding the Charles Alexander livery. John Wigston, the artist who offered to re-create the photograph has painted the attached picture. With a little artistic license it shows LNER 2001 ■■■■ O’The North racing the Leyland. The Doncaster P2 Locomotive Trust is now selling mugs with this picture, so if any of you are interested, you don’t need to be a steam fanatic to buy one from the website (cockothenorth.co.uk).
Many thanks to those who helped with the colour scheme.
Mike
