Ex Great Eastern Railway B12. Connoisseur kit with ESU 3.5 decoder, Buehler motor and two stage gear box. Suethe smoke unit. Loco is fully lined under the grime. Sound is via standard 23mm speaker in boiler and a Base reflex speaker in the tender. It is a shame that such capable machines were often allowed to get in the unkempt condition as modelled here. Loco has had a minor overhaul (Sept. 2017) and now has both speakers in the loco

Ex LNER B17 61620. This is my memorial engine. I met my late wife at Clumber Park. The loco has been beautifully constructed and painted for me by Graham Varley. It is a DMR kit fitted with Graham's own plunger pickups and a RG7 motor. It runs as sweet as a nut. I have fitted a loksound V4.0 sound chip with sound from Olivia's trains.
