Superb model and well worth the wait. What with the new rebuilt Royal Scot's and Patriot's it has been a very good year for excellent BR/LMR locomotives.

Looks right, but I won't be tempted with Modelzone's offer. The choice of Locomotive Name is interesting. Unfortunately 'Windward Islands' 45637, had a comparatively short life in BR days,going for scrap,(it ended up looking like an 0-6-0), after being involved in the triple collision at Harrow & Wealdstone, [thick fog & signals passed at danger],on the morning of the 8th October, 1952. 5637 was double heading(front loco) with either Princess Anne 46202 on Euston-Lpool,or City of Glasgow 46242 on Perth-Euston sleeper.
