[longbridge]

What could be better than a Kato Class 66, ideal for relivery jobs.

Bear in mind that it's made to continental N gauge - so 1:160 rather then British N at 1:148, so it'll look pretty small alongside British N rolling stock.

True Phil, 

Here is a Farish  EWS  side by side for comparison,   the Kato  locos are as  usual  wonderful   smooth runners &  have six pin  decoder sockets.

And for those of us with Continental layouts Kato have announced the Class 77 in the current ECR silver livery for this year, to add to the EWS/ECR 66 done as a special in France a couple of years back. Regrettably the EWS colour was almost pink on these.
