1977! No wonder spares are hard to find!

I have to say that it's the first time I've seen the white lining on the smoke box.  Anyone know if that was the how she looked?

(Good one for Pol to come back with a link to a picture!)

I've seen wartime pictures of locos with white lining on the smokebox door. No idea if it's accurate in this case.

Me too, Pol but the blurb said it was as built in 1927 and we weren't at war just then!

Found this pic of 6152 The King's Dragoon Guardsman masquerading as 6100 for it's tour of Canada and the USA. Looks like it could be white. http://tinyurl.com/6puv8a
There's this painting on a Japanese website too. http://www.geocities.jp/kigiken/br_steam.html

It looks like polished steel to me, but I guess they went for white because it was easier and cheaper.
