Ha! Literally a mirror! Like a rear-view-mirror.

 :dunce: I thought it was referring to something else.

Hopefully this will show the mirrors slightly better.

I like the detail of the mirrors, although I did have one still in the box after taking the 66 out of the box.

I think they have done a stonking job.

Forgive my Yankee ignorance: mirror?

Small industrial locos do zero for me :no:

Don't take what I say the wrong way, I think that the baby deltic is a great idea and I expect it will sell well. But from a buisness point of view I just don't get it. Yes they will sell but will they sell enough to make a profit? How many do they have to make and sell to get the percentage that they need?
Maybe I'm just being grumpy?

Also when I say 'generic' I mean a locomotive found everywhere. Take an 0-4-0 peckett, used all over the place, used by mainline companies and industrial ones, where in use from pregrouping times, upto and beyond nationalisation.

I'm definitely being grumpy, I'm going to go and play with my trains... :D

Rob. :)

What do you make of the mirrors? In images I see, it looks like they are squashed. But that could be the photos.
