Is it meant to be any particular class.  It can't be a deltic or a 37, but
the nose is very evocative of those designs.

It is just inspired by them collectively.

Most are co-co's and have 3 front window panes, plus are much longer.

ISTR that there was an early bo-bo design, but I can't for the life of me
remember the class. I will look it up later. "North British" ring a a bell
as the pre-TOPS name for the thing.
