    stalling class 14 is causing frustrating. small outstanding jobs causing frustration, think i should spend time on the layout.

      NVR Thomas? That machine is etched in my memory. I remember the early 90's overhaul which at that age seemed like forever!

      From a model perspective they are both very very good indeed. As a loco I prefer the N15 though.

    yesterday i purchased the new netowrk southeast and regional railways station boards, excellent, just what i need to finish my new station off. they are outstanding and should be greatly recieved by 1980's 1990's modellers.
