Are these the new Bachmann ones Kev ? Phil

I think what Chris was asking was which side to fit a driver and fire man from Bachmanns loco crew set. Phil

Crafty Hobbies in Barrow had both versions in stock yesterday. Phil

This is probably a stupid question but I just read in the Hornby magazine review that the review model had an LMS builders plate, why would they not have a midland plate ? Phil

Is this going into the main range, or just for collectors club first ? Phil

Bachmann home pages now reports that they have been returned to china after the discovery of decoration issues, not due till next year now. Phil

Is that not what Hornby did with there oo jinty ? Phil

They are due to release a BR maroon version in September Phil

Oh yes please, well done Dave Phil

That's brill thanks Tony, no problem running mixed rakes then Phil

Ah ok , fair point, what I should have said was will they look right running alongside Hornby coaches ? Phil

Can anyone confirm if the colour will match Hornby Staniers in crimson and cream ? Phil

Surprisingly cheap, was expecting double that !! Thanks Jason

Wow £5.50 without the coach !!!!!!!! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Hachette-Your-Model-Railway-Village-issue-1-/161337143110?pt=UK_Trains_Railway_Models&hash=item2590716f46

38-601 seems to have changed from early bauxite to BR Grey (TOPS)
