Recently these early episodes of Heartbeat have appeared on YouTube, I have just watched this one: Heartbeat “We’re all allies really.” The programme begins with LNER Class N2 0-6-2T 69523 pulling into Aidensfield. 90775 has THE Vera Lynn on its nameplate, I suspect it is to fit in with the theme of the show. She did not get a damehood till 1975, and that loco would have never run in service for BR, but then authenticity doesn’t normally bother them. There has been an A4 and some BR Standard Class locos, most are too obscure to determine what they are. SR School Class 30926 “Repton” appeared clearly although a SR loco would be unlikely to be on LNER territory in reality.
