The next group of locomotives that I am working on are the GER 4-4-0s: D13 & D14,D15,D16 'Claud Hamilton' locomotives; and the LNER D49 Hunt/Shires. I've already started on some of the prep work, and I hope to get pictures and D49 names up later today.
The Clauds and Hunt/Shires were chosen because they are probably the most popular locomotives that are still outstanding. The D13 has been added to the list because it then completes the GER 4-4-0s.
Earlier in 2005, Barry Heath provided a lot of helpful information for the D13s. I have now completed the page, filling in the odd gap here and there. The complete page can be found here:

I am going to be away for a couple of weeks over Christmas, so I may not reach the Hunt/Shires before the end of the year. However I'm hoping to get the Clauds finished in the next few weeks.
After these, the plan is to move on to the 'E' 2-4-0 locomotives followed by either the GNR 0-6-0s or the NER 4-4-0s.

For those interested Comet Models produce components for the D49 - a frame pack, a motion pack and a chassis pack.

The Claud page is up:
http://www.lner.info/locos/D/d14d15d16.shtml
Covers the original D14 Clauds, D15 Belpaire Clauds, D16 'Super Clauds', and the D16/3 Gresley Rebuilds.
Shame we don't have one of these fine engines surviving - it would go well with the B12 and J15!

The D49 page is up:
http://www.lner.info/locos/D/d49.shtml
Covers the D49/1 'Shires', D49/2 'Hunts', D49/3s and the ill fated Class D rebuild.
This will be the last new page for 2005. If I have time over the next week, I may start the prep work for the 'E' 2-4-0s, or split the Wisbech & Upwell and Aberford pages up into smaller sections (something I've been talking about for a few months now).
Merry Christmas Y'all!
