The 1948 to 1956 British Railways logo is seen reproduced on the side of the tender of 6023 'King Edward II' as it waits to leave Broadway with the 12.15 to Cheltenham Racecourse. The locomotive is painted in the original British Railways blue often referred to as ultramarine. The roundel attracted some unfortunate terms, referred to, almost others as a 'Ferret and Dartboard' and a 'Unicycling Lion'!
