The Golden Age Merchant Navy (inc rebuilt) locos are really very good.

Also having had another look at their purple/blue A4 has helped me make up my mind to put this livery on my kitbash A4

Trouble is that I have Champagne tastes, but only the money for a bottle of stout!

Me too... that tender looks right for Blue Funnel too!

Yes Jon, they have taken a lot of care to detail the various types of casing on both loco and tender and at first sight they appear to be accurate.

I'd love to know whether the MNs have full working Bulleid chain driven valvegear (and scale oil baths!).

Hi Peter, Please see re-crop of the pic - it shows all the nameplate but not the whole loco for 60012. Cheers, Matthew
