A few of the better efforts….

I’m sure Mr Atfield could build these, even if Bulleid would turn in his grave….

A new model announced?

I prefer Kato’s offering….

Or maybe this one?  I’m waiting for the other liveries!

Not from April 1, but a worthy contender as a new model?

And by the way: On 1 April 1656 Oliver Cromwell issues an edict banning ‘All Fool’s Day’, for “the greater protection of public order and worthy humour”. This was not repealed at the Restoration and is still technically statute today.  So beware!!

No jokes for Brian in Redhill, but a surprising amount of freight.

Elsewhere, this would look good on a model….

And if you are visiting Essex today….
