It wasn't until April 1984 that it would be recalled to Doncaster for its large logo repaint, although this was quickly superseded by the colourful Network SouthEast livery, which would be applied at Laira just over two years later. In February 1989 it was transferred to the departmental DWCA pool and with its NSE livery now obsolete and looking tired, the Plymouth depot repainted it back to BR blue, albeit with a Rail grey roof and black window surrounds. NSE-sized numbers were applied to the driver's cabside with double arrows at the other end, while the nameplates were retained in their high position and not returned to the centre of the bodyside. This scheme would later become known as Laira blue or Departmental blue and was also briefly applied to 50037 in 1990 and then to 50008 in 1991, although notably Ramillies was the only one of the three to gain the DCE flash under the secondman's window. 50019 was withdrawn with main generator damage while still wearing this paint job in September 1990. Happily it was sold to the Class 50 Locomotive Association the following May - the second of the type to be preserved - and after several years at Eridge on the Spa Valley Railway it moved to its current home, Dereham on the Mid-Norfolk Railway in May 1998, where it was a key member of the operational fleet, even running freight services on the 11-mile line. Since 2013 it has been out of action undergoing an extensive overhaul, which will see it return to its classic Laira blue when completed.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSPECIFICATION\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cul\u003e  \u003cli\u003eHighly-detailed OO scale model, 1:76.2 scale\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eMinimum Radius 438mm (2nd Radius Set-track) in OO\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eDie-cast metal chassis\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eRP25-110 profile OO wheels with provision for re-gauging with scale-sized wheels for P4\/EM gauges with simple ride height adjustment and ability to set brake blocks in line with wheels\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eSeparately-applied etched metal\/plastic detail parts, including grab handles, steps, wipers, etc.\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eScale width wire handrails\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eEtched metal pre-painted nameplates and crests (where applicable) provided for customer to install\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eInterchangeable printed headcodes with full description covering the first nine years of the class plus preservation era\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eScale-sized and mounted snowploughs provided for customer to install, with one-piece NEM mounted option\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eFull underframe tank, battery box and full-formed compressor detail with extensive pipework and other separate parts\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eFully sprung metal buffers and bufferplate, factory-fitted pipework and screw couplings (for display)\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eFully sprung buffers, super-fine pipework and screw couplings (for display)\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eKinetic NEM coupler mounts at correct height and mini-tension-lock couplers\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDeluxe Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cul\u003e  \u003cli\u003eSeparately powered working radiator fan with different speed settings \u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003ePowerPack capacitor for uninterrupted power\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eCustom Accurathrash Speaker Technology including large Accurathrash Style Bass Speaker (on DCC Sound-fitted models only)\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eHall sensor for flange squeal effect (on DCC Sound-fitted models only)\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDCC Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cul\u003e  \u003cli\u003eDCC ready with PowerPack capacitor for uninterrupted power\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eDCC ready or Factory-Fitted DCC Sound options\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHigh Performance Traction features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cul\u003e  \u003cli\u003eFive-Pole motor with two flywheels\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eHelical Gear box for maximum performance and slow speed running\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eGearing arranged so locomotive can achieve minimum scale top speed of 125 mph (200 km\/h)\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eAll wheel drive (sprung centre axle) and all wheel pickup\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFully detailed Lighting Pack features\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cul\u003e  \u003cli\u003eDirectional lighting, DC and DCC\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eSwitchable Red and white marker lights with day\/night options\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eSwitchable Red and white marker lights with correctly configured lights for preservation era oddballs 50008 and 50044\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eInterior lighting with cast electrical compartment and engine bay detail on metal motor enclosure\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eSeparately switched cab lighting and illuminated, drivers desk, auto\/off on movement\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Accurascale","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56356048830844,"sku":"ACC2391-DCC","price":299.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0943\/3048\/7164\/files\/ACC2383.97964_f71e95aa-7105-455f-8971-7872e7899ab6.jpg?v=1786092419","url":"https:\/\/www.kernowmodelrailcentre.com\/products\/acc2391-dcc-accurascale-class-50-50-019-ramilies-laira-blue","provider":"Kernow Model Rail Centre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
