The Manors wore nearly all major GWR and BR liveries from 1938 until their withdrawal at the end of 1965. The first 20 were delivered in unlined GWR locomotive green with the roundel or ‘shirtbutton’ monogram logo on the tender, although by nationalisation they could be seen with tenders wearing GWR initials or GW separated by the company’s coat of arms. Repaints during wartime years would have been unlined black, with unlined green returning once hostilities ended. Unlined black was again applied after the formation of British Railways, albeit with ‘lion and wheel’ crest and smokebox-mounted numberplates. However, the BR-built Manors were released from Swindon in lined mixed traffic black, later being repainted in unlined black. Between 1956-60 all 30 Manors were turned out in lined BR green, initially with the early crest but the majority received the later style totem.
Diecast parts have been heavily utilised to ensure excellent traction capabilities, with the78xx featuring a fully diecast boiler, running plate and chassis. High fidelity plastic and etched parts will add that detail quality to ensure an industry leading locomotive.
The Accurascale Manor locomotive will feature a 3 pole motor with flywheel. Electrical pickup is from all tender and locomotive driving wheels, there is also a flickering firebox light in the cab and a 21-Pin MTC Socket in tender.
