    For this next question, we go overseas to the UK.

    This locomotive was restored to operation in 2011 and of the three preserved, it is the only one that is not green.

    It is not 4468 either, as there are six left.
    (Fun Fact: The two that are preserved in the US (#60008 Dwight D. Eisenhower and #60010 Dominion of Canada) and are currently in the UK for the 75th anniversary of 4468's speed record.)
