“Speed at Bay”. Three of Sir Nigel Gresley’s A4 class locomotives stand on shed ready for their next turn of duty. From left to right, “Dominion of Canada”, “Silver Fox” and “Empire of India”. Silver Fox retains its original livery for the ‘Silver Jubilee Express’ while the other two locomotive are in the garter blue livery, originally for the ‘Coronation’ express and for which the A4’s became most known. This is painted in an experimental style for me – meant to suggest traditional railway poster art.
