    Apart from the DJH kit I am sure I saw a production model in unpainted brass brass available. I am sure that Italy would buy a few considering that they were a specific class here, FS736. As ever it depnds on the price.

    One of the main issues is that in HO it would look small against the normal UK OO. I have a HO Trix Brit that, whilst it looks great on it's own it, looks lost with a rake of OO Mark I's.

    I dont think the 00 lot will win in this market, my post was more aimed to those who prefer more accurate models ;-)

    My bets are there are many more HO modellers than 00 modellers for this one... US, Italy, Hungary, Austria, Czech, Poland,Russia, Greece, Turkey, China, France, Germany, Spain, Algeria, Morrocco, Tunisia, Yugoslavia, Mexico and Peru...

    Britain is but a small isolated island of 00 gauge.

    I imagine the DCC Sound version would keep the neighbours awake!, may be an ugly brute but god they make a racket.

    That won't be too accurate in HO gauge?
