Title: Split Headcode Class 37
Post by: Dalek on December 29, 2017, 01:29:16 PM
Hi

Has this loco ever been available all green with no yellow panel ?
I've tried searching about and have only found the new version of the spit headcode 37 with a SYP

Cheers
Craig

They are Bachmann rather than Poole Farish, if that is what you mean.

Yes
D6707 was made in 2008 (one of the first new tooling 37/0s), and D6712 in 2010. They are both absolutely beautiful models, btw.

I got D6707 a year ago from the nice folk at KJB Models secondhand for £80. OK that was its original selling price, but it was mint and looked unused.
There are gems out there if you are patient.
