LMS Jubilee
I need some information about 45571 South Africa, 45595 Southern Rhodesia & 45621 Northern Rhodesia. When these loco were on BR's books, around the 1950's until they were cut up where they black or red?

Evening Syd, I do not think they were red and it is a toss up if they were Black or Brunswick green, I will try and find out for you.

I have just had a look Syd and I can only find B/W shots of these loco`s, the only one that looks green is 45595, the other two appear to be black.

Thanks for the update Chris. I did not even know they existed until I stumbled across a site that makes name plates and smoke box numbers for them.

Thank you all for the information gents. I now need to buy 3 BR Green Jubilees and the smoke box numbers plus name plates. Not all at once or she (who spends well at M&S) will give me GBH of the ear for a long time.
