    This must herald the split that was forecast a few days ago! How can anyone take this lot seriously?

    actually I want all classes remade, and in the same quantity they existed at their peak, and I want you to pay for them......:bored:

    Once upon a time, the LNER was under-represented in the world of preservation. At this rate they'll outnumber all others!

    To be fair it's now more 1 person than a group of people. But still it is pretty hard to take all these schemes seriously. At least Bachmann have done a V3 model though...

    No there is absolutely no interest in this what so ever.

    Stop dreaming up a new loco idea every week, its beyond boring and its making me want to switch off of national preservation.

    You do yourself no favours with the J39, L1 and now this....yawn.

    So is this as well as the L1 or have you split from them too? I would have even less confidence than before if you were trying to juggle the 2 projects.

    Can this thread be removed? or are we going to have to go through Hornby's and Bachmann's entire back catalogue of non existing loco models that seem to inspire this lot?
