Locomotives in BR Express Passenger Blue

[alexl102]

Is it just me, or are there more or less no models in Trainz of British steam engines in the BR Express Passenger Blue livery? I know that one or two people have done personal reskins (Something I intend to attempt at some point), and obviously there's the new Duchess coming with T:ANE (Altho it's a shame they couldn't have thrown in an updated model of an A4 too) but I can't remember having seen anything on the DLS.

Has anyone seen anything that I've missed? Cheers!

There's a BR blue king available from Skipper1945 on the DLS and some Peppercorn A1s as payware from CamScott. There aren't that many classes that received express blue livery, the list is:
- LNER A1
- LNER A3
- LNER A4
- GWR King
- LMS Princess
- LMS Duchess
- SR Streamlined Merchant Navy
- A few locos preserved locos.
Of these, almost all of the ones with an up to date Trainz model also have a blue version (the main exception being the A3s from the S&C pack).

the WC/BoB streamlined class did too

I'm pretty sure this is incorrect, WC/BoB were power class 7, whilst the blue livery was only carried by class 8 locomotives.

I second this.

Someone did make a personal reskin of an SR Light Pacific model (skipper's, I think) in blue, but that shouldn't be taken as prototypical. 505657j is correct that the model exists, but it's inauthentic and not available for public download last I checked.

It could be you're getting mixed up with the Merchant Navy class here. They received blue, but obviously they were still in their unrebuilt form

Of that list, there's a very old model of an A4 and a GWR King in Blue. I've not seen any of the others.

The Duchess will be available with TANE preorders and there is an A1 available on Cam Scotts site as payware.
