Hello Mick

Welcome back -  I have a Farish 3MT Tank and it is still a really good runner. Did the Class 4 run on the Western?

An open plea for anyone to make a RTR model of this loco.
With Farish having made the Black 5 and the excellent class 5 I'm surprised they haven't gone for this yet. No one has even mentioned it.
A class of 80 locos (of which 6 are preserved) its route availability of 4 meant it was seen widely across the regions.
I do have a model made for me by Dr Al which is a Langley model on a Black 5 chassis which is a stunner (mine is the weathered one nearest the camera. Pic by Dr Al). A newer model would make life easier for those who use that DCC electrickery :D

Anyway, it's great to hear you are back amongst us again even though it must have been a pretty scary time. Just keep looking after yourself.

All the best,

Well, the hardware's fine, but his 'software' is Windows 3.1...

...without the updates.

OK. I admit to still using Supercalc 5 :-[

I'm unaware of how things operate in NZ but have to say @Bealman seemed to have a rough experience on his latest stay in hospital in Aus. At least my belongings didn't tend to go walkies :no:
