I still have a Minitrix A3 "Flying Scotsman" and A4 "Mallard" bought new in the late 80s so in the "jewel case" type box. Neither have been much used so both still in decent nick (a tiny bit of cosmetic "edgewear") and still run well. I have no idea why I kept them so long, neither is a very good representation of the real loco in model form, I guess it is a nostalgia thing  :hmmm:

I'm not intentionally being negative, but if Peco stays true to form, I don't think it will happen.

Let's hope I'm proved wrong!

They all look in good nick, Mick. You've looked after them well.

Cheers,

thanks ian!

i may pick up a few.

glad peco are producing more.

they won't be as detailed and accurate as other manufacturers due to shared underframes but can still be a useful and more budget friendly option.

I must say, at those prices they seem like good value. But yes hopefully the socket issue has been addressed.

Probably my very first 3 purchases in N gauge - Minitrix Ivatt 2MT, 9F and Britannia. All still running well albeit noisier than more recent offerings
