@edh6: I have two diagrams for the DeGlehn compound; one for the GWR version and one for the original French version. PM me your email and I will gladly send them over.

Best Looking/Prettiest Trains (LARGE IMAGES)

No you are quite correct. The reason is that the train, a special, is on the wrong line. It is running on the Metropolitan line which uses normal height stock as opposed to the deep level stock hence the discrepancy

The BR Class 42 'Warship' class. Utter and pure beauty. Just look at it! Unspoilt lines, no ugly add-ons, it's even perfectly symmetrical! Although IMO Kestrel was slightly prettier, the Warships were the most beautiful diesels put in to production anywhere in the world...ever, bar none.
Another diesel-hydraulic, the Class 52 'Westerns'.
I like diesel hydraulics, don't I?
The NER/LNER J72 has got to be one of the most successful locomotive designs ever. The first one was built in 1898 by the NER, and the last was built in 1951 by BR!
A slightly different form of motive power in the form of GT3, a prototype gas turbine locomotive ordered by BR. Although it was completely useless it has to be the best looking gas-turbine locomotive by a mile! I would love to see one in Trainz!
Swindon's finest locomotive, City of Truro. The first steam locomotive (and man made object) to ever reach 100mph, a triumph of British engineering.

You can't go wrong with the modified Scottsman. I just wish they would have cut off those derpy looking bumpers as well to finish the image, but I guess that would have ticked off the Brits when they sent it back.
I am also partial to the P&W Libertyliners, which were repainted Electroliners.

I like it.
I really like these things by the way. I think it is called a Standard Five or something like that, but it has awesome Caprotti Valve gear, which I really like. Plus it looks beefy.

Yup, that's Brtish Railways' Standard 5MT design, with Caprotti valve gear. 5 is the power classification (goes from 0 to 9, so these locos are in the middle) and MT stands for 'Mixed Traffic'.
They're loosely based on Stanier's 'Black Fives' from the LMS.
@jordan412: I'm not a fan of 4449 but I must say, she does look quite beautiful with that fresh, gleaming coat of paint; same goes for the diesel behind.
