One of these things at Preston about 10 years ago: http://railrover.fotopic.net/p35060119.html
The old station boards at New Street and a trip to Scotland in the mid 90s, 310 (I think) Sutton-BHM, ICS HST BHM-GLC, 303 GLC-Ary
and 20s got me into bashing
In otherwords "I dont like these dirty degenerate folk, but its nice to be on a Mk2"
Anyways glad the Tauntons have a bit more time on them, means I can still get winners in and its the one I can actually do too (well I can do the Paingtons but I have to pay go to Bristol for that)

No idea why the link is so long but 9th October EMT are having another Red Dot Day, gone up to £15 now, im assuming this is the result of that...
Theres no ultimate diesel event, it'll depend on the person so for example 47 bashers wouldnt say the MNR gala, likewise in 2 years time I cant see very many EE bashers going off to where ever for the Class 47 50th do or the 50s 50th do ect..
Ive only done one gala as I only started out...
I think 018 has been adopted by WSMR now, still cant moan with some hope it'll work 1J82 and 1P33 so I can bag another 200mi off it, then just 400mi more and its cleared
There is a fair few aspects with train cranks, some like to go to stations/lineside and others like myself prefer to do charters and diesel galas though the latter has been covered 10 or so years ago
Colas, DRS, WCRC, S47G, Rivera all have 47s out on the mainline
270 is in BR blue so to answer your question, 1 in BR blue 1 in LLB and a few in Rivera blue
