I'd go for 105 as it is the only one with no letters on the side. Cheers Graham

Sorry Graham, as they say on the quiz shows, a good answer but it's not right. The liveries might give you a clue though.

Noooooooo.

Don't concentrate on the livery, even if they were all green there is another more important factor.

Good try Pete, but wrong, sorry.

All 5 body shells are identical, with the exception of the livery. Whilst the difference in the livery is not what I am looking for, it will give the correct loco, but why is it the odd one out.

Don't look at them as models.

No, keep trying.

It is do with the number and it is key to getting the answer, but maybe not in the way you would think

Ignoring the fact that the engines all have 4 driving wheels only then it is 23 on the basis that this engine in the 1923 GWR re-numbering scheme had 4 driving wheels (plus 4 carrying wheels) whereas the others all had 6 driving wheels and 2 carrying wheels.

Not that I believe this is right!
