Summary

[edit]
Description

I like the LNER Pacifics of all types and especially the Peppercorn A1 and A2 classes which, whilst eclipsed in many ways by the earlier Gresley A3 and A4s, were a fitting climax to East Coast express steam locomotive design, Happy Knight was one of only six A2 to be fitted with double-chimneys; another being the preserved Blue Peter, on which this image is based. Delivered to the newly formed British Railways, the A2s initially carried full LNER livery but with British Railways lettering. This fictional image carries a simplified version with black wheels and modified lining, presenting a neater effect than the experimental BR application of apple green with LNWR-style red, grey and cream lining to selected secondary passenger locomotives (02-Jan-15).
