    Yes, Jock, she would have been painted in "wartime black" in 1947.
    The "panel things" are smoke deflectors to a German design which
    were put on relatively late; many of the class received them in the
    late 50s/early 60s. It's surprising that the choice was made to
    apply them to the preserved locomotive since they covered such a
    small fraction of the her working life. She also has the double
    chimney which was also a late modification.
