The Red One

[Ryewolf]

Taken of a sunny Friday at the KWVR.

41241 is an LMS Ivatt Class 2 2-6-2T that was built at Crewe Works in September 1949. She was purchased directly from BR by the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway for preservation in 1967. She was repainted into lined maroon livery with the letters K&WVR written on her sidetanks, in 1980 she was painted in authentic BR lined black livery. For the 50th Anniversary of the KWVR in 2018 she was once again painted in lined maroon livery.

Thanks Loki, I agree, had I converted it to mono, like I normally do, it wouldn't have been as obvious but it would lose out on the actual colour of the engine.

Both nice Rye and it's always nice to see how these engines have been preserved.
