I came across this picture on Flickr and I thought I'd post it as it might make for an interesting and colourful livery variation for the Hornby model.

I see that Hornby have actually announced a model in this livery!

Picked up my pre-ordered Hitachi Sentinel from John Dutfield's today as it had just come in from Hornby.

 

Includes the MU coupler as per the catalogue image, it is in a single piece with the cover for the coupling hole. Coupling and the dummy hook have to be removed.

Here's the part. For some reason it has NEM hooks on it but there is no NEM pocket. Looks the part but whilst not a weak part it equally won't survive a hit. The good news is that the web stripes are aligned unlike some previous iterations of the Sentinel!

If available as spares could be the basis for the front of a Javelin once the nose is cut off.
