The model is seen here as received from the client. Painted plain black, it is carrying an incorrect number, poorly applied. |

Renumbered as 30089 the engine has been fitted with a smokebox numberplate and shed plate. I weathered it to suggest that some time ago the crew cleaned the number and the "cycling lion". |

I added a small heap of coal to the top of the tank, often seen on these engines in their later years, and a wooden floor in the cab. 30089 spent some time as the Guildford shed pilot, and is remembered as such by the model's owner. |
