take it you got a good one then ?

must admit to having several cl60's even though my layout will be late 80's / early 90's BR blue.
set in / based on Inverness and far north line, so not really the time frame or location for cl60s, but I am tempted to go for a what if scenario, and have some in large logo blue with ScotRail on them.

they are mainline, and were a good deal on Hattons a while ago, and just couldn't resist them.

what do you recon, be a nit picker and only run what fits with time and location, or run to Rule 1 "Ilike it, it's my layout, so I'll run it" :evil:

Class 60 locos made a brief appearance north of Perth in the 1990s
Now that BachFar have finally started releasing them in Triple Grey liveries (Petroleum first, hopefully more to follow) you could easily add this

I have one EWS livery model and it is an excellent runner and I hope to add all the Triple Grey liveries carried by the Class 60 in due course
When Lima released them in OO gauge I had most of those models, and I would love to recreate that

Now only if Dapol produced a Class 37 and released many versions, putting BachFar to shame for producing such low varations of models

Sorry guys but I'm one of those who only model era/location. BUT - I am modelling an imaginary somewhere around Oxford so that gives me the maximum coverage of Western, Southern, Midland and Eastern region to play with (I'm not entirely stoopid ::))

I want Penny to sing Soft Kitty to me. I'm sick.  :'( (Not really, but it's the rules.)
Soft kitty, warm kitty, little ball of fur.
Happy kitty, sleepy kitty, purr purr purr.

only little ball of fur I'm likely to see is if I brought my old female dog (changed by forum) into work with me  :evil:
