This loco has been reworked from a Brand New Heljan class 47 with a full respray of the colours. With all new transfers applied, these are supplied from Fox Transfers, and Railtec. The loco has been weathered as it was in the period 1988 to 1990. It comes with protoneo etched double arrows and coloured etch plaques.

This is then has air brush weathering applied with a final coat of protective varnish sprayed on. The loco is the reassembled, reglazed and finished with patches of oil textures to the parts which would have oil on them (Coil springs, around axle boxes and fuel tank filler leaks).
