Painted ‘Lady’ ready for roll out

THE Great Western Society will be just days away from revealing the completed paintwork of its new ‘Saint’ No. 2999 Lady of Legend by the time this issue of The RM hits the newsstands.

The Churchward 3,500-gallon tender of No. 2999 following lettering and application of the garter crest at Didcot. The crest has been placed according to the practice of the period so it lined up with the centre axlebox. Note how the paintwork has been flattened down before varnishing. FRANK DUMBLETON

The re-created Churchward 4-6-0 will show off its new livery during a special ‘Hall & Saint’ weekend at Didcot Railway Centre on June 7-9, when it shares the spotlight with visiting ‘Modified Hall’ No. 7903 Foremarke Hall from the Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway.
