      Modern enough! By modern I mean the newer ones... the later ACs! So 86/87. Then the 90 and 92 came.

      86101 was the test bed 87, 87101 was the test bed 90.

  6. Just watched Red 2; the first part, awful! The second actually quite good!

  10. I really am starting to hate the old style Hornby class 08 shunter, I've spent the past half hour trying to work out how to get the chassis parted from its body.... Screws removed, still no luck? Grrrrrr

      Thanks Micheal. I worked it out in the end! Serveral screwdrivers and much shouting and cursing later!
