Have just ordered a Dapol Maunsell Coach Set 394 Maunsell Green (3)

They have an innovative pull out corridor connection system but be careful in using it as I pulled one right out and had to send it off to Dapol for repair

OK, will take care

Hi there,

If you're looking for a shunter have you considered the recently delivered NGS Hunslet?

There is a thread here which shows some of the models, with links to videos showing the performance.

cheers

Don't you have to be a member of NGS? I'm not.

Hi there,

Yes, you need to join to have access to the various RTR items, kits and the bi-monthly Journal.   It's £16, and the Hunslet in any one of 15 colour schemes is £82, so the cost of joining and buying the loco is less than £100.

If you're interested here is the list of available liveries:

For a Wales link here loco 6663 in February last year shunting bogie fuel tankers at Milford Haven:

The loco is pale blue with Puma branding; model 059E would be a reasonable start to produce this variant.

cheers

Even if you don't want the Hunslett the NGS is well worth less than £20 a year. You get a brilliant N Gauge handbook as well as the bimonthly magazine.
