How many locos do you own?

Graham · April 03, 2020, 10:40:09 PM

one of the benefits of this lock down is i am planning on running everything as an exercise. Not sure how long this is going to take but it i am enjoying my afternoons in the train room.

I did get round to cataloguing the stock in an excel spreadsheet last year, then i had to hide it.

From memory...

1 x Duchess
7/8 x Jubilees (can't remember!)
2 x Black Fives
1 x Ivatt
1 x Jinty
2 x Royal Scot
1 x B1
4 x Burlington Northern
2 x Western (One in the contractors 'paint shop')

I think?

Still waiting for...

3 x NGS shunters
1 x Sonic

I REALLY must build a layout and not just keep running them round my test loop!

Well I ran this thread past the finance committee & unsurprisingly she was not keen on my "need" for another 26 locos. However managed to blag another 2 wagons so have took that as a start

My Excel spreadsheet says I have 176 locos...but I haven't updated it for a while so probably 200+ now...

Maybe more than I need but what has that got to do with it...

that makes me feel so much better i have quite a way to go before i get anywhere near that.

So my collection of
1 Ivat 2mt
1 3f
1 j39
1 B1
1 Peppercorn A1
1 Peppercorn A2
Seems barely adequate. I will get a J72 when it's released and Gresley A3 & A4.. The layout is far too small for a pacific but rule 1 applies

Given that sort of number my response clearly has to be a simple 'not enough'

Yeah - but it doesn't take you 2½ hours to decide what to run

I don't think I've posted on this thread but I do have a couple of photos of some of my locos and multiple units. My spreadsheet says I only have 180, I think I need a few more:

I have 2 Blue Pullmans now, these are old pictures

These are awaiting various repairs/cleans etc

njee20 · April 12, 2020, 08:21:59 AM

Certainly an eclectic mix!

We understand. You're among friends here

chrism · April 12, 2020, 08:47:50 AM

How many have I got?

I think it's fair to say somewhere between more than I can really justify and not as many as I would like

BramptonBranch · April 12, 2020, 01:47:25 PM

When you realise you have ten of these, thirty of those. only half a dozen of something else and a lot more than one of everything you do start to wonder. Do I really need anymore? (as the finger hovers over the bid now function on that well known auction site)......

Intercity · April 12, 2020, 02:29:53 PM

When I went down to the dungeon, I mean basement and the first thing I saw were 7 voyagers, 9 class 56s and 10 class 66s I realized I'd rather not know, but I won't be bidding on any more as I've got enough, well after the Kato SD80MAC turns up with boxcar and caboose for £44.

Oh and spot the lie in the text above!!!!
