NO WAY DOES ANYONE EVER HAVE ENOUGH LOCOS!!!!!

OK, now I've shouted that from the rooftops, I think you've probably got the message.  Think how much you could spend on booze and fags, and what would you have to show for the money?

From the look of your stock list I would guess you class yourself as "Freelance"; for those of us that model a specific location or period, then probably our stock list would be a bit shorter unless we had a large layout or were modelling a busy terminus or a big MPD.

My stock list is predominantly Southern with a few LMS because I'm modelling a location where the LMS would have come in via the Somerset and Dorset to a Southern terminus.
