    And nice little card with the Loriot Y too...

    Another Rapido beauty...

    You've got to love ebay sometimes... :) And only £6.50

    Just got my hands on some good D1 negatives :) 31505 and 31494 both with Sunshine lettering on the tenders :)

    I'm happy to wait for Rapido's offering. Rapido's are going to be worth the wait... :)

    Great job Rapido!!

    If anyone is interested someone is selling the GWR version on ebay atm... Tbh though I am puzzled as the GWR examples are not showing as available yet on the Hornby website.

    Off topic but this what I've been thinking might be the best route for me as well when it comes to the Big Bertha and the future GWR MICA Vans...

    I will be slamming my debit card down for one GWR example as soon as my supplier gets them!! I may only know 1501 during it's preservation years but that GWR livery is just as perfect!! Sure it's a what if livery but I've always found it a pity that the 1500's were too late to receive GWR green unlike the Hawksworth Coach stock.

    These are not far behind now.

    As @Edge says it varied on the location in question. I have seen photos of either single or several MICA to varying diagrams in goods trains or in goods yards. I suspect you'd find the larger rakes of GWR MICA around London owing the markets. Outside London it would vary.
  12. Garethp8873
    Probably not but I have several Rapido SR 8 Planks to purchase as well... :D
  13. Garethp8873
    Yes and edited 😊

    Thanks all. With that in mind and the photo from @Graham_Muz of 1741 I will look at getting the two side feeds removed at somepoint in the future. Now how long can I resist ordering a 31487 for re-livery into SR Wartime Black livery...?
  15. Garethp8873
    Can someone show me on the photos of the 1741 example what would need removing to make it correct please? If it's too much I may see about getting 1741 returned and swapped for the Sunshine lettered version instead.

    Gotta love these in LNER G5 models in LNER livery!! 😍😍
  17. Garethp8873
    It'll have to wait... I've just had to pay for two LNER G5's from TMC
  18. Garethp8873
    22 hours later... Payment for my two Olive Green D1s has been taken :)
  19. Garethp8873
    The temptation to put an order on for a third with Sunshine lettering is sheer hell...!!

    Question for you all, at the Bristol Harbour Railway, they have a GWR 5 Plank Open that is in PBA livery and bearing the number 61110. Owing to the similarities between O11/O18, could anyone identify what diagram 61110 would come under please? Also is it still at Bristol? Last time I visited in 2022, I couldn't see it.
  21. Garethp8873
    Definitely new samples, 1749's tender numbering has been tweaked

    Renders of the GWR Macaw on the link below. Seems they have been looking at the SVR's 107291 Macaw :) https://uk.Hornby.com/community/blog-and-news/engine-shed/streamlined-salmon-wagon

    As I have said with the GWR MICA, I say it with Bertha too... I will sit on the sidelines and observe.
  24. Garethp8873
    @#$%!!
  25. Garethp8873
    The GWR X8 MICA that KR Models are doing shares a chassis that can be used with the earlier X7 diagram and the Tevan. Bar that I'd have to look through my reference books.
