      I had the same thing with the 8F and Black 5s - quite a nice surprise to see an 8 pin plug in there even though the models are +10 years old and not advertised as DCC ready.

      Basically, except it would've had a V front cab and other details would be different.

      Sadly won't happen. Both of these locos were a gift to their respective countries and as such we cannot dictate what will happen to them. I am certain both will return to their homes in 2014 and take pride of place looking in far better condition then when they left them.
