Although i applaud the choice of livery, for selfish reasons i like the BR numbering and wish i could see it standing in the bay platform at Chathill with Two NER coaches and a birdcage brake.

Mrs BB says:

I want one for Christmas.

Anyone know where there's an NER Class H for sale? Or do I have to chop up a Triang "Nellie" and tell her it shrank in the wash! :lol:

Switch to 7mm and the Connoisseur Y7 makes a good starter kit! He does his own "Starter" which is freelance and closer to the Nellie, but he does the Y7 too.
