According to my book 31402 allocated OC for 3 years from May 85, but the model has a FP depot plaque which according to the same book dates the model from renumbering in 02/74 to 05/81. Of course that doesn’t mean it never reached the WR.

And look at those beautiful wagons behind it as well.

Looks like he’s already weathered it despite the problems.

Thank you.

Hi. Hoping somebody can help with regard to BR blue 31123 (35-805). Online images are blurry, but it appears to have a depot sticker on one side only. Could someone confirm that and also what depot sticker it is please. Thank you in advance Steve

Hi. Sorry, not right now as I am not in the country. Steve

That is brilliant. The roof repaint gives a much better look.

I realise it’s not Hornby but as this is where most of the TT chat is ATD models have released a couple of card kits for TT - a single road diesel depot, 1970s office block and some general sheets. I made the office block in N a few weeks ago and I was really happy with it. I’m nowt to do with ATD, just a consumer.

Issue 7 of the TT magazine on Hornby. Apologies if this is already common knowledge.

Concrete sleeper flexi for me.

Wagon

There is a new Train Terminal up on Hornby. Preview of the HAA & MDV, but also some very nice class 37 CAD and early class 31 CAD also shown.

They look fantastic (especially in BR blue).

Pretty certain there were x2 09 without high level air pipes (maybe 024 as well), but the majority did. I think the Liverpool St pilot had them too (the GE blue one).

Just out of interest, but why shouldn’t the 08s have high level pipes. BR (S) did have 08s with them.
