Great shot there Daibach! but those greedy buggers at S.C.O.W. must have objected to buying No. plates because they always used to stencil their own from what I re-call. Cheers Dennis.

Great shots of some J.R.'s Atkys Daibach but IMHO the modern JR livery didn’t suit those Atkys,the radiator grille should have been left silver don’t you think ? Cheers Dennis.

Hi Dennis them Atki,s were painted like that they used them for shunting in the abbey ,that pic is one of them they used to put them on a low loader to take them to yard for repairs then take them back.cheers john
