Sorry if the pics took too long to load, Huw. Glad they may be helpful for you
to use in your own model.
I imagine that my likeness of the DB139 is far enough removed from looking
exactly like a real DB139 that it could be claimed for something else.
I recall the fine British diesels colored blue/yellow(?) nose from 1981 when I
lived in Harlexton (sp?), Lincolnshire. I think they looked like the DB139 to
some extent.
Good building with your model!
later,
James Mathis
