    As a Z in Australia, I'm in trouble! But yes, not going out alphabetically as a mate with M (also in Aus) already has his. At a guess, it may be date of order placed. He was decently early, whereas my order for a friend and I was basically on the last day from memory.

    Removed-strange double post.

    You could be right, but that's out of my sphere of knowledge I apologise.

    I think the profile name gives my vote here But yes, the A5 for me. Strictly, the A5/1.

    Note a vote for this poll but a suggestion for a future one after the designers round-Locomotives (of specific types) from around the world. Should bring up some interesting options.

    Not as an attack but out of genuine curiosity-when you say wrote to KR, I assume that was by email as well as comments on the thread here?

    To answer both questions in one hit, and hopefully without setting off others, the Accurascale Green 37/0s are from the first 5 locomotives (D6700-6704) which sport a few differences to the rest of the fleet. It's noted elsewhere. I did also forget to make the point of SYP as well.

    I'm just waiting for a nice production 37/0 in original BR Green condition with yelow panels. (D6767 please )

    Just to be completely different, I'll go the J. Strictly the last true Wainwright locomotive, and a rather good little loco. Plus, it is not easy to make a good looking 0-6-4T

    A photo of the old girl on the above media run at Burwood. Sadly the hoped for parallel did not happen at this location! https://www.flickr.com/photos/110243529@N03/51036109096/

    This does not end well for my wallet or my workbench....

    SKF is Svenska Kullagerfabriken-the manufacturer of the roller bearings used on the locomotive (and thousands of other locos).

    I was right on the cutoff (30/11/19) and I'm yet to get mine, but another mate down here who ordered earlier got his overnight. So I'd say they're just working through the list. If worse comes to worse, start googling pitchfork suppliers

    I won't be happy until I know the name of the guy that installed your internet router.

    Oh a foul, a foul, a palpable foul.

    One 14XX on a truck chassis please!

    Confirmed over on their Facebook https://www.facebook.com/officialhornby/posts/10157589777250843:0

    This is what happens when you enter a poll past 2AM and miss the Midland criteria! In that case, The MR 700. A very interesting history, given their Continental connections both through the Italian Railways and the ROD. For a specific example, ROD 2717 which became stuck in No-Man's Land and was captured by the Germans before being recovered post-war.

    I'm biased in saying an A5 (FINALLY), but I think one really would have been an ideal tank loco for some of the larger NE groups without having to always resort to a pacific tender loco.
  20. 69843
    I mean, you'd expect so given this is how most model manufacturers operate.

    Interesting to note the tyre looks to be a trapezoid and not totally flat-I wonder if this is an attempt to still make the wheelset spin when on straight track and then when it swings out it stops.

    For everything’s sake, can we get back on topic? It’s tiring to come back to this thread to find updates to instead see no updates but constant bickering. Go set up a KR Models bickering thread if you really must.

    Given that every so often WA wants to do what they are now calling 'WAxit" and become their own country, can we borrow Bugs Bunny and saw off the whole West Coast? After we save the last running K-Class English Electric (37 in a different shell) for the East, of course.
  24. 69843
    Not a poll answer, but any chance of a shot of 60012 today Gilbert? Good date for it (though past the 1am mark on the 27th here now).
  25. 69843
    34064 for me. Not only an evocative name in Fighter Command, but GIESL EJECTOR!
