I can't remember if The Waterboys have featured on here before?

Mrs PP and I saw them at Glastonbury in about 2005 or thereabouts and very good they were too.

Here they are a few years later on the Isle of Wight with what is possibly their best known offering:

Guilty as charged but I don't require wagons or coaches. My loco list is my minimum :)

Just what I was about to say!

As a reminder:
Quoteminimal wish list of models either never produced, or not produced to current standards - one wagon, one coach and one loco/multiple unit. Plus one re-livery of an existing model

After two years, my wish list remains the same:
HEA
Mk2 BFK
Class 110

My choice of relivery would probably be a 37 in Intercity.

Pretty much everything I'm likely to want is already out there in some shape or form. My wish-list contains one item - a bit more money to spend on such things...  :(

Sigh...

Cheers,

Chris

For me the chief locomotive type missing from my collection which would have run on the sea wall would be a County 4-6-0.

A new model King would be good too but my two old GF ones will suffice for the time being.

GWR County 4-6-0
GWR King 4-6-0

Pressed Steel 3-car/Class 117 DMU

To these I would add:

GWR 72XX and 52xx tank locos

Maunsell SR King Arthur, Lord Nelson and  Q class 0-6-0

LNER V1/V3, N2 and EX GC 04

LMS Fowler 2-6-4

None of the locos that I have mentioned have ever been made RTR although some have been kits or scratch aids, and I would buy at least one of any that become RTR

Regards,

Alex

I would add to that: -

LMS Princess Elizabeth class (Lizzies).
GNR/LNER K3
Stanier Mogul
J26/27 0-6-0 (to modern spec now that Union Mills are no more).
