Dumb-buffered, possibly? despite being a GC modeller, given strong family connections to Seaham Harbour I would crawl over broken glass for a Coffee Pot or the Lewin. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Captain Kernow Posted November 23, 2022 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 23, 2022 All these guesses must be completely wrong! (although I might be tempted by an 8F). It needs to be a cute little pannier, what else will please and delight the whole hobby? 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold 97406 Posted November 23, 2022 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 23, 2022 There’s so many potential prototypes to choose from.

RMweb Gold BR Blue Posted November 23, 2022 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 23, 2022 Why do people keep suggesting a 60? There is not much wrong with the current one. Granted it could do with a DCC update in terms of lighting functions but the basic shape is spot on. As for the 50, where do I start? There is a lot that can be improved. I predict it is NOT a 60. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two things then happened - AS headed towards producing what looks to be an excellent manor (best GWR tender loco to date?) and Dapol somewhat missed the mark on elements of theirs.... Just because there is a very good model on the market, does not mean AS won't better it. Was there that much wrong with the Hornby 31? 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
