Following on from our recent addition of new liveries to our existing Class 43 HST and Class 47 embroidered designs, as promised we now have some more new locos –
Both loco types are extremely popular and have been much requested by customers. This brings our total loco classes so far to 13 with the choice of 15 different livery options!!
The ‘Deltic’ is the prototype loco for the legendary Class 55 Deltic locos. The locomotive entered service in 1955 in a striking light blue and creme colour scheme. It was designed for high speed services on the ECML and its success led to the production of the 22 Class 55 locos. The Deltic Prototype is a much requested design that has been sold several times as personalised designs following people contacting me – now is the time to make it available online!
[ux_products type=”row” columns=”2″ equalize_box=”true” cat=”277″ products=”2″ tags=”11692″]The Class 35 Hymeks are another popular class of loco that are regularly requested. The Hymeks were synonymous with the Great Western operating area of British Rail, being regular performers on trains from Paddington to Devon and South Wales. They entered service between 1961 and 1964 and had a very short service life. The Hymeks were diesel-hydraulic locos, a design that quickly fell out of favour with British Rail. Withdrawals started in 1971 with the last leaving service in 1975. The design is available in either BR Green or BR Blue
[ux_products type=”row” columns=”2″ equalize_box=”true” cat=”277″ products=”2″ tags=”389″]The standard embroidered loco design includes a high quality embroidered loco cab with a number and nameplate (if fitted). Recreate your favourite loco with our simple to use personalisation service.

After the huge success of offering personalised wording on our aircraft embroidered designs, I am delighted to announce you can now add personalised wording to all our embroidered railway locomotive clothing designs.
As standard, you can personalise your railway clothing by choosing your favourite loco number and choice of livery. If the loco was named the nameplate will also be added to your design.
Additionally, you can now add personalised words above and/or below the embroidered locomotive to replace the standard name and number design.
For classes that featured variable front ends such as Class 37, Class 40 and Class 45, the design will have either a split box or flush front design as appropriate for the loco number you choose.
Our range of embroidered loco designs are steadily increasing and currently include the following classes of loco

You may have seen a number of side profile drawings of classic steam and diesel locomotives appearing on our products.
I have long admired the side profile style of artwork and have wanted to include a range in my offerings. I saw Stuart Blacks side profile artwork on the event circuit and decided to contact him.
I initially approached Stuart Black about the possibility of creating one of his classic ‘Evolution’ style pictures of 50021 Rodney for my personal collection. I asked Stuart about acquiring the rights to sell this picture as part of our fund raising efforts for 50021 and 50026. Stuart was very helpful and the end result is we now stock an exclusive ‘50021 Rodney Evolution’ range of products.
Following on from this conversation, we came to an agreement whereby I am able to stock and sell side profile pictures of many classic steam and diesel locos on our gift products including –
Stuart created me new versions of some of his existing diesel loco pictures and include
All the side profile pictures are available to buy on our entire small gift range including mobile phone cases, wallets and purses, mugs and bags.

If there are any particular aircraft, individual locos or classes you would like to see added then let us know! In the meantime have a look at our new side profile pictures and let us know what you think!

For a little while we have been selling some really cool clothing as part of our work in raising money for Class 50 locos 50021 & 50026.
We have been extremely fortunate to partner up with an exceptionally talented digitising and embroidery team. The detail of the digitisation and embroidery work is truly exceptional and allows us to be confident in launching a full range of high quality products.
[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
All of these clothes have been hand picked not only to be modern, stylish and contemporary, but have been tested extensively to ensure they provide appropriate quality and longevity to match the quality of the designs. We dont see the point of making stunning designs available on cheap nasty clothes that wont last!

It was great to see Class 40 D213 40013 Andania back in service after a thorough 20+ year restoration looking and sounding great. Hats off to the owners and everyone involved as the restoration looks top notch.
It seemed very strange to see Deltic 55007 Pinza again, even though we know it is 55022 Royal Scots Grey in disguise. I’m not overly sure about the concept of disguising loco identities but the commercial aspects for the owner is obvious. Nevertheless it was great to see an ex works condition Finsbury Park racehorse coloured Deltic, complete with white cab surrounds again.

Both small Sulzer Type 2 locos Class 25 D7628 (25278) and 26038 sounded great and 37264 looked good as an authentic Scottish large logo class 37.
From an operating point of view 26038 didn’t have the best of weekends, failing on both the Friday and Saturday. Saturdays failure caused quite significant delays. From a trading point of view we had a good couple of days despite the seemingly low number of attendees.
We are very much looking forward to going back to the NYMR railway for their Autumn Steam Gala running from 30th Sept to 2nd October.
We are at several other events this summer so drop by and see our unique pictures and digital paintings.
