  1. I keep coming across this on ebay.  Must be about the fourth or fifth time it's come up.  Price has gradually come down to £100 (from £150).

    Still available new from Invicta for £74.99!

  2. I'm tempted to get one of the blue/grey ones and pimp it up with NSE branding and renumber it to a 30xx series.  According to my 1989 book blue/grey VEPs were still around when some of the 34xx series were produced.  Might have to wait and see what the price is though, i'm sure they won't be knocking them out at below £100 like they ended up doing with the blue and NSE versions.

    Two thoughts or questions, I wonder why E5001 was not in the batch. :scratchhead:

     

     

    Would E5001 not make sense.  It made a few trips on the main line in the early 90's on railtours.  It's the only one i'd consider buying.  I know I could renumber it but would not want to renumber a premium loco.

     

    A great loco to release Dave, as is the 59.  Looking forward to seeing these. 

  4. Agreed.

     

    Part of my interest is the fact that it's window arrangement (location of luggage area) is incorrect for a Jaffa CEP.
