   • Model locomotive lamps are something of a ‘bee in my bonnet’. They are such an easy way of increasing realism. As the standard of accuracy has improved beyond all recognition in the last few years with regard to all model railway items, modellers have been striving to place these excellent products in as real a railway environment as possible.

   Why do BR locomotives have side lamps?

   • Again, note the side lamps because the train is unfitted. In early BR diesel days, despite the locomotives having electric lights, unless one had discs, oil-lit lamps still had to be displayed in order to denote the class of train being hauled. Here, an NRM/Bachmann prototype 'Deltic' hums through 'Little Bytham' carrying Lanarkshire lamps.

   Where can I find a good lamp for a locomotive?

   • Another source of excellent lamps are those produced by Lanarkshire Model Supplies, here just held in place by Blak-Tak on the brackets of a DJH 4mm:1ft scale A1. Despite locomotives of this class being fitted with electric lamps, oil-lit lamps were carried, too. I’ve not painted these.

   How did locomotive headlamps work?

   • They were never bright enough to light the road ahead or warn track workers of an approaching train, unlike the high-intensity headlamps used on locomotives today. Separate lamps on steam locomotives were oil-lit and had slots at their rears or sides to be fixed to lamp brackets on locomotives.

   Do BR locomotives have spare lamps?

   • BR favoured carrying spare lamps on the tender’s front; just visible here as a DJH 9F speeds along on 'Little Bytham'. As recorded in my introduction, the Somerset and Dorset had a unique headlamp code for either goods or passenger workings, both of which are displayed on locomotives on 'Bath Green Park', along with single lamps.

   1 day ago · 4. Shunting vans at Reading: In the late 70s the pilot loco was used to transfer vans between the centre Relief Siding and Platform 3 running out onto the Down Main and back in. I think that white on the front, noting on the train end of the loco and tail lamp on the vans is consistent with the rules.
