Think you must have put the wrong link in there, but I saw it at Welshpool, best Regner loco ever, I love the P&HT!

Very nice! 8) I must admit, I've always wanted a Roundhouse Victoria, but if I can't get one of those this might just be the next best thing...

(...but I can't afford either at the moment, so it's all academic anyway! :roll: )

That is the type of coupling the original ran with. that's a good idea with the scratch body work over a cheaper loco Pauly.

5in electric or mod a Willi in to a Victoria, this is a very hard decision, I really do love Victoria :dontknow: .

I'd go the 16mm loco route, as you will have more chance to use it (everyday your at home...). ;)

That's what I'm thinking, how often will i use the 5in, once a month? Less when the exams get here.

yeah hence why my 7 1/4 project is dead now (or postponed!), because I havent been to TMR for like 4/5 month now... so I will keep my money for 16mm stuff...

That would be a nice project for a Mamodification. Be great to get some gear reduction in there and just a drop on body that fits on the loco...

...thinking...
