A nice memory John,
They looked well in these colours

Thanks Derek, I think they did too. And as a point of 'interest' on this funnel marking (though I'm sure you'll know this being a railway man) the twin arrow logo as seen here would be back to front on a train, the top arrow always pointing to the right. But on their ships the logo was reversed port and starboard so that the top arrow was always pointing forward. Now... pass me that anorak 8-)

John,
I hadn't noticed! To many night shifts!
My anorak would be to large for you!
regards
Derek
