AN OPERATIONAL example of William Stroudley's popular 'Terrier'0-6--0Ts will once again carry the London, Brighton & South Coast Railway's (LBSCR) yellow ochre livery when the Terrier Trust's No. 3 Bodiam returns to steam after overhaul in 2022.

The last UK-based'Terrier'to run in Stroudley's livery, often referred to as'lmproved Engine Green; was the Bluebell Railway's 'A 1 X' No. 55 Stepney in c2009.

The livery is also carried by 'A 1'/'A 1 X' hybrid No. 54 Waddon at Exporail in Canada, and 'A 1 'No. 82 Boxhi/1 at the National Railway Museum, but like Stepney these locos are on static display and not capable of being steamed.
