Talk:British Rail Class 03

Main image
Do we really have to have a purple 03 as the main image of this article? It's hardly representative, is it? Surely it should be a BR green or BR blue example, preferably while still in BR service. (The current second picture is much better in that respect!)

 * Agreed - duly removed and replaced with better pic. from the Commons library. The Shildon photo is better, but not too keen on having the kid in the bottom left - if anyone else has a better shot of this original blue livery loco then please upload it. R-T-C (talk) 13:41, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

Most succesful?
The lead states that the 03s were the most sucessful BR 0-6-0 shunters, surely that accolade goes to the 08/09 classes? Murgatroyd49 (talk) 13:30, 23 March 2021 (UTC)
