Anyone have any news updates about 50035 & 50044 at Derby?
I’m presuming that they’re still there as not seen any info regarding moves.

Seems to have gone very quiet about these two.

Indeed they are. But maybe they are to lose their large logo livery
50035 is in plain blue, but point taken.

Note a lot of choices for livery though, if being prototypically accurate and personally I'd be surprised if 50035 changed livery at the very least.

The SVR doesn’t need another large logo class 50, it already has 50007 Hercules, 50033 Glorious & 50049 Defiance.

I’m kind of hoping it’s original NSE but at the end of the day however its painted goes to making the loco popular & therefore brings in revenue & helps towards the bills.

I’m a massive Ark Royal fan having driven her.
Since she’s not been at the SVR I’ve not been.
