D444 is the very first class 50 to carry this livery as on BR they all ran in blue from the start. Although it is therefore not an authentic colour scheme it seems we think, to suit the class well. The loco is mainline approved so it should make a good site on the front of charters later this year. Pictured arriving at Medstead and Four Marks on the Watercress Line at their Diesel Gala on the 23rd May 2004.
