Since it is now two days later, and no-one else has taken a shot, I'll try out my over-and-under –
1) There are leaf springs on the trucks. I have no idea whatsoever whether the RGS provided this luxury to the crews riding 0404 'back in the day'.
2) The lower "SOUTHERN" part of the herald is offset to the right. IIRC, this mis-placement of the stencil occurred on one or two of the loco tenders, but I don't recall seeing it on 0404.

p.s. Amiss is as good as a mile.
