Very nice Tim.
Not so sure about the DB collaboration but yes PM is definitely on my radar.

I doubt this Grammy award winning guitarist has featured on this thread before, so here is Pat Metheny with "Here to Stay" from the 1995 album "We Live Here", smooth...


Pat Metheny collaborated with David Bowie and produced "This is not America"...

47712 Lady Diana Spencer wasn't fitted with snowploughs so I'd be very surprised if any are included with the model.

I don't believe that Farish has released a Class 47 with snowploughs, but I'd guess they'd be the same as those fitted to some class 37 - i.e. you need to remove the coupling pocket, although with a bit of work you can retain the coupling:

The newest class 20 due later this year come with snowploughs fitted to the cab end - might be worth checking Farish spares when the model is released to see if they're available separately.

Well that is now confirmed with this...



It's like uncovering a deposit of gold!

N Gauge Discussion / First 'Hello!', Farish 47 712 ...

Hello,

I'm new to the Forum, tho not new to the scale. I've been a fan of Continental European N for some time, along with being interested in other scales and locations but, recently, I've started to focus down on trains from Britain and French-speaking parts of the world, mainly in N gauge. I'm looking forward to getting involved in discussions!
My first question is about what I think will be my next purchase - the Farish 47, Lady Diana Spencer. I was wondering whether it came with snowploughs and, if so, how easy they are to fit? I'm very partial to a British loco with snowploughs! I've seen a couple of vids of people having some difficulty with fitting the 'ploughs on the Farish 37 and wondered whether this loco might be the same?
