then they should have done an 07 - the 03/05 and 08 have been done to death - the 05 is really problematical as there are so many variants in one class - obviously Heljan are, like the other big manufacturers running out of "real" locos to model.

I`m sure there are plenty out there who would like a fully fitted out Highland 24/1. The rest of us are just content to see another r-t-r diesel on the horizon. I`m after a couple of Devons Road NBL 0-4-0`s[29xx]-the old Triang effort was`ent quite up to spec  Now i know that JE are preposing to do a kit but i`m put off by the chassis issue-advice would be welcome.

Hi Robin

 

If it is a later one the temptation to buy will be reduced. I was looking forward to a couple of ER based locos for Hanging Hill despite the NER ones being the better looking of the variations within the class.

Personally i think the final batch were the best looking of all the smaller BR shunters[cue the outraged howls from the 07 brigade]. If its not protected can anyone post the publicity photo of 3 of them at work at Goole..or point me to where it was published.

 Cheers.

Nothings straightforward these days...Modelrail have just quoted Heljans Kim Nannestad as saying that the loco modelled will be from the later batch. Not all bad news for LMR fans-a handfull of these were based at Llandudno.
