Corridor tender allocations for A3 locomotives
I've just been carrying out a little research into the allocation of corridor tenders that were coupled to A3 locomotives whilst they carried the Apple Green livery, as i'm considering re naming and numbering a spare Flying Scotsman body i have recently acquired.
Corridor tender numbers 5323-5332
Allocated Loco's (written and * photographic references)
4472 Flying Scotsman
4474 Victor Wild
4475 Flying Fox
4476 Royal Lancer
2506 Salmon Trout (built new with banjo type dome)
2508 Brown Jack (built new with banjo type dome)
2546 Donovan
2547 Doncaster
2556 Ormonde
2563 William Whitelaw
2564 Knight of the Thistle
2564 Merry Hampton
2566 Ladas
2569 Gladiateur
2573 Harvester *
2580 Shotover *
2743 Felstead
2744 Grand Parade
2745 Captain Cuttle
The banjo type dome is the most realistic conversion for the hornby live steam body, as all the other locos had a round dome until converted at a later date probably when in Brunswick Green but i could be mistaken.
