I'd forgotten about the 'private railways'. I think it is only a
requirement of locomotives operating on the national rail network to have
yellow fronts. That said, steam engines and heritage stock must be exempt.
Anyway, I hope someone builds some British trains soon! Actually I'm very
surprised that no-one hasn't built a class 37 or 47 as they're very Lego
friendly shapes. Or a 126 because they just look great. I recall someone
built a Virgin West Coast DVT (Driving Van Trailer) but I can't find that
again.
