In BR days a number of Stanier�s 4.6.2s were outshopped in the magnificent Crimson Lake livery of the old LMS railway and here 46245 �City of London� storms towards the summit of Shap bank with the down �Royal Scot� express. At this desolate spot stands a water column for the refuge sidings on the right as an emergency measure for locomotives that might be low on this vital ingredient after the taxing climb to Shap summit with a heavy goods train.Even the mighty Stanier pacifics would be down to about 40mph with heavy trains at this spot on occasion.
A painting like this of your favourite railway scene, British or American, in oils on canvas or board would cost about �2500.

Many thanks Tina, these locomotives were considered by many to be the best looking of the large British Pacifics and by this time were most were turned out in Brunswick Green but about ten or so appeared in this stunning livery. I saw one once in this livery at Crewe and it truly was a magnificent sight to be seen.
