Doesn't stop you trying, though :-X

I don't have anything Scottish.... apart from two Claytons! And arguably Drummond's M7 tank has Scottish ancestry.

Happy days - I'm up for at least 4 maybe six, a 4 coach set and a 2 coach push pull set

Like Craig, I did register interest but can't recall which I required. There is no tracking of 'expression of interest' unlike an e mail so only Dapol know what I wanted :doh:
Unlike the Gresley buffet coach and full brakes, I did post in that thread what I was interested in.
I appreciate it's a lot of work to contact eejits like me but it would help me enormously. Just for the record I reckon it's 1 x 2P-010-404 and 2 x 2P-010-204

I'm confused as to whether a 3-car push pull set would have had two composite coaches, Mick.
On the southern they had two car pull-push sets which were supplemented at peak periods by an all second compartment coach. I would have expected that configuration on the Midland too. The spare would have been piped underneath like the composite, to allow the driver in the driving brake second to still have control of his loco. The non-corridor second would be next to the loco.

I don't specifically know why Dapol labelled one of the composite coaches as push-pull but I suspect it is just the number applied. You could probably just get a second class coach 2P-010-007 or 008 to make a three car rake.

Best
