I must say it look a lot better than I expected! Not sure about the large area of red on the side, but that will get covered in dirt pretty quickly anyway.

Wonderful restoration! She is a great looking unit.

It's not a restoration - just an in service unit repainted into the new colours. The original locomotive, B66, was delivered around 1952 and rebuilt as an A class in 1984.

Anybody - are all the A Class locos Broad Gauge?

Great Shot Chris, That livery looks good on that loco. When is NSW something that looks this good

Certainly an interesting interpretation of the Hamburger paint, Chris. I don't "get" the patch of grey on the side. . .I guess it was used on the N class and specs called for it to be there whether it looks right or not? An improvement over the Red/Blue predecessor scheme. . . but still can't top the original blue/yellow VR "Erie" paint scheme. . .
