We've moved on from yellow warning panels. Put in a suitable LED light in the headlamp and it could be done. Just the issue of finding some engines to put inside it, re-wire and re-build the whole damn thing. Even after a big lottery win and a big night out, I'd still think it a bad investment.That would be brilliant.
However. (and forgive me if I'm being daft here) Would that particular locomotive require the assosiated front end stuff that other mainline diesels require? e.g. Sealed beam headlight, and yellow panels. Which for me would ruin the asthetic.
I suppose the headlight could be got round by putting it in the place that the designer intended.
My vote would be for the Midland Railway compound.
