I've not measured them, but probably nearer to 70-80 inches.  Loco has no problem with the load.

Cheers,

The 'weathered' Royal Scot arrived this morning. Originally described as 'heavily weathered' by Farish, I wouldn't exactly describe it as 'weathered' either - more a sort of all over matt finish. However, she looks very nice and runs a treat straight from the box, in which she is a very tight fit!

I totally agree about the weathering but she/he/it?? (which ever is currently politically correct) is a very good looking loco. Runs beautifully and I'm very pleased with her/him/it??

I think this model is the only one modelled in N offered by a manufacturer - so far - that has the diagonal yellow cab stripe applied.

"The yellow stripes were to show the loco was prohibited from working south of Liverpool or Manchester over the LM region electrified lines to Euston. Apparently, it was applied to some of ex LMS class 4F, rebuilt Patriots, Jubilees, and Royal Scots and ex LNER class A4, A3, A1 A2 and A2/3 pacifics. This is according to my Observers Book of Railway Locomotives of Britain, 1966 edition, which shows pictures of most of those classes with the diagonal stripe. Think I've seen pics of 8F's with them as well. There weren't many survivors of those classes left by then, of course"-source: http://www.modelrailforum.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=8526 posted 6 April 2009.
