      No - save your money for a pannier instead.

       

      Joking aside, there's nothing wrong with any class, as long as its what YOU want.

       

      However, if you're thinking about it, or asking whether to go ahead, it ceases to be an impulse buy.

      I bought it, It was the half-cab with BR lettering on offer for £64 but its the wrong region for me. I regret nothing.

      Maybe if he had a Broad Gauge Rover he's willing to donate to me......then I could get to like him!

    Does anyone know if GWR Pythons were well travelled in BR days? This East Anglian modeller rather likes the cut of the Parkside kit's jib.

      According to Rule 1 they got pretty much anywhere & everywhere across the whole of the system.

      I've seen several photos of them on M&GN services in the 50s, and one or two on ECML trains as well, so yes, OK I think.

      Brilliant, thank you both!

  5. NXEA!

    Ended up impulse purchasing a half-cab 1F despite it being the wrong region. Now to justify it... Damn you Bachmann!

      Some are bound to have travelled a bit, which region are you modelling?

      Thanks guys, making me feel better about spending! It was only £64. Great Eastern, more specifically Norfolk/M&GN. My excuse is it got purloined for a freight from Peterborough/March, or that its on loan from the LMR as a trial...

      Not far at all from the Midland Railway at Peterborough - it probably happened at some point. The 1F is a cracking model, anyway!

    Has anyone got a spare tender screw for the D16/B12/B17? Removed the tender for my B12 to fit a chip and one screw has gone walkabouts.

    Heavy rain today and had to put the heating on this evening. Looking forward to the long winter nights, enough of this summer malarkey.

      Wikipedia says that at the start of the LNER there were 272 of them, and at the start of BR, 127 were left, so if I were you, I wouldn't stop at 3.
