REPAINTS... FACT & FANTASY
TIM SHACKLETON brings a little colour into our lives by imagining what a DB Cargo Class 68 might look like.

For me, this fantasy is the continuation of a long tradition – with teenage impetuosity I repainted my Hornby Dublo Duchess of Montrose in BR blue with a yellow front end, something I’ve regretted ever since!
