Quote from: GlenEglise on April 24, 2025, 10:36:59 PMI don't mind if it is Farish or Dapol or anyone else, but will we ever see a 6MT Clan produced?

A small class of 10 locos, essentially a Brit with a smaller boiler and 6P power rating, were anyone to make one it would be Dapol, but I suspect not.

Roy

And mainly only seen north of Carlisle. OK, EFE did the 5 x class 41's but they've been on all kinds of wish lists for years and years

Err, I don't think so, they went all over and were misused as substitutes for Britannia's hence reducing their reputation as poor performers. They weren't meant to substitute for Britannia's.

Hmm a small class of ten, like the Baby Deltics?

You are having a laugh right?

Seems you're not alone in that. Hopefully it's being looked into.

Martin @port perran ! I saw Wild Turkey in '73 at The Hippodrome, Golder's Green. It was recorded by the BBC. They were OK as I recall.

Quote from: Moonglum on <strong>Yesterday</strong> at 04:30:42 PMBlack Sabbath, I always thought that there was a bit more to them than meets the eye/ear. I saw them in March 1973 at the Rainbow Theatre (North London) and sat 3 rows from the stage. The tour was in support of "Vol. 4." and parts of the concert can be heard on "Alive at Last". I think it all went to pot after "Sabotage" and I moved on although I do have "13" - no Bill Ward on drums - more is the pity.

Sad about Ozzy of course but I did not follow his solo career and still consider his best work to be on the very early BS albums.

Not sure I could take a whole Tony Iommi album now @Tonye !

I saw Black Sabbath in Bristol with some mates, who dragged me along, in probably 1972.
BS were never my thing at all but I recall that Glen Cornick's Wild Turkey, who were the support act, were pretty good (at the time).

I've just had a quick listen to the first two tracks on Tony Iommi's From the Dark @Tonye .
Definitely not my cup of tea by a pretty long stretch  :D
