I'm sure that in their early days they pulled passenger trains to Kings Cross, but I don't know about any further South. :-\

I just hope when it arrives that Dapol do a good job on quality control. There have been a few problems/rumblings recently with several of their models - though perhaps not as many as reading some forums would suggest. We need Dapol to be a strong competitor to Bachmann to ensure a consistent improvement in the quality of what's available.

I've noticed that Dapol and most traces on the Class 92 have gone cold. I hope they haven't shelved it hence that I don't fancy forking out £450 for a CJM version :(.
