D1062 is due to be repainted in maroon with half yellows in May 2008. The locomotive should be ready to transfer down to Kidderminster at the end of April, where it is estimated that 300 man hours will be required to flat, clean, undercoat, gloss apply transfers & lettering. The work will be undertaken by the SVR.

Excellent news.

'Inspector Biffo' ['Jeff' - I don't know him] posted today on the SVR forum that D821 is being painted in the open, and he was lamenting the weather.

Will be good to see it back with half yellows! Been a while since we had a half yellow maroon western on the valley!

Will look the part with 821 in same livery!

Unfortunately, the repaint has been put back due to the present work load in the C & W dep't. However, the SVR have assured us that the work will be carried out ASAP, which will probably be towards the end of June.

Any more news on the repaint?
Is the August running date still looking likely, and if it is, will this Saturday be D1013's last running day for a while?
