Excellent subject choice, can't have too many of the small black LNER group locos in RTR model form.

Should be a wave of kits on Ebay soon, then. Good.

An interesting development but I find it very curious that the LNER livery chosen is about the shortest lived incarnation possible.
Still I suppose those parties that want an LNER one will probably renumber & letter it anyway.

Wrong area for me though applying Rule No.1 I might take a punt at a GER blue one.

Could possibly be of interest, once the quality and accuracy of production-run examples has been tested and proven, also when the initial mass enthusiasm and over-pricing has worn off a bit. Definitely won't be pre-ordering a "pig in a poke".

A few J67/69s did find their way to Lincoln and Colwick in the late 1950s, so I might be able to stretch imagination a little with a renumbering effort.

One would be a great lightweight loco for shunting at my wagon repair shed, when I have actually completed the building and track layout.
