    Ta Hal for the advice always wrap stuff in Acid free tissue paper due to an unfortunate experience with one of my American locos that was packed with yellow foam ...it reverted to it pre production petroleum state ruined the paint on the Loco ,as well as forming a yellow gooey mess everywhere !...yuk !

    Ta for the replies ,Edwin didn't want to appear obtuse as to the electrification ,sometimes units will use diesel if there is a problem with the pan i just didn't have the knowledge of what state the electrification works were around Bath Spa , hence the question (,have put the proper station name in in to stop the references to electric fires and large bathing vessels filled with water !.....)

    While staying at Bath the weekend noticed that an 800 class started rom the station on diesel power didn't have time to visit the station ,so has it now been completely wired up ? and did they fence off Sydney gardens ? with palisade fencing .

    I remember seeing this layout in London a while ago and it was then stated that the railway was run to the BCR time table so there was only one or two movements during the whole time it was exhibited must say it was just as enjoyable looking at it without stock as the standard of modelling was and is superb! Thanks for reviving this classic layout looking forward to seeing it again !....
