I'm confused as to whether a 3-car push pull set would have had two composite coaches, Mick.
On the southern they had two car pull-push sets which were supplemented at peak periods by an all second compartment coach. I would have expected that configuration on the Midland too. The spare would have been piped underneath like the composite, to allow the driver in the driving brake second to still have control of his loco. The non-corridor second would be next to the loco.

I don't specifically know why Dapol labelled one of the composite coaches as push-pull but I suspect it is just the number applied. You could probably just get a second class coach 2P-010-007 or 008 to make a three car rake.

Like Craig, I did register interest but can't recall which I required. There is no tracking of 'expression of interest' unlike an e mail so only Dapol know what I wanted
Unlike the Gresley buffet coach and full brakes, I did post in that thread what I was interested in.
I appreciate it's a lot of work to contact eejits like me but it would help me enormously. Just for the record I reckon it's 1 x 2P-010-404 and 2 x 2P-010-204

Is there someone from Dapol on this thread ?

Please email us this information and also what we showed an interest in 

Craig

The CIWL livery version in my case, where the single coach style and some UK full brakes and a 71 did nicely for the Night Ferry.

Maybe not to everyone's tastes either but I finally got my Irish Passport last week    (Irish grandparents) so HAPPY ST.PATRICK'S DAY!!!

Loads to choose from but always liked this one from The Pogues....

We are certainly veering well away from my musical tastes at the moment but don't let that stop you all. 

Not quite Oingo Boingo, but good adaptation.

My other half lost the remote locking key to her Ford Ka, I contacted the local Ford dealer, £365 for a replacement, i.e., one sound fitted class 59 plus an analogue one. I got a new fob and key from a company on line £19. It now needs to be programmed Timsons quoted £130.
What a rip off for 15 minutes work.

It would make an improvement to the area, and we already have craters in the roads
