Currently digging this lot, who are relatively local to Plymouth (Totnes).

I will look to buy two, maybe three of them. I am hoping the Hawksworth tender version is released at the same time as the Collett tender.

I'd think about renaming/numbering two modified Halls,to locos I stood on the footplate of back in 1965. Sadly these plates are not currently available. I imagine the range of plates could be extended with the release of these new Halls?

No interest to me.  I doubt they ever reached Scotland, esp the further North lines!!

5972 Olton Hall made it to Fort William and Glenfinnan, albeit for Harry Potter filming

Have been advised the pre order will be processed and despatched shortly. They appear to have been swamped with arrivals

I repeat: this thread is incredible!

Quote from: Newportnobby on March 25, 2026, 10:34:23 PMRails advised today they have the C class in stock so my pre-ordered SECR liveried should be with me in the next few days

No monies taken so no delivery advice
Have e mailed 'em

Hoping that they are just behind in getting their backlog cleared. They have taken the money for my hoppers and those have moved from pre-orders to order history, however the order is  currently marked as "unfulfilled",

Meanwhile, on the SECR front and huge thanks to @Bob G for signposting it, I paid what is probably over the odds for one of these but I really wanted one and it was £30 cheaper than the last one I saw on FleaBay.
It's on it's way so here's a stock pic........

A demotion.

Moved from 6th floor to 3rd floor today. The go-home soon ward? I wish! With Easter looming,they emptied that ward out so they could employ less nurses.

It is certainly a TTR layout. I recognise the 0-4-0 locomotive as well as the weltrol boiler wagon right behind it and the raised 3-rail bakelite track.
