    A Franco-Crosti 9F and a rebuilt Crosti 9F wouldn’t go a miss for me.

    Unlikely, I know, but I'd like to see a wide range of HO scale UK prototypes ...

    I like that idea. Very interseting design. My aunt worked on the 9f designs at Brighton. (Non crosti I think).

    Shouldn't be to difficult for Hornby to redesign their production model of a 9F? They can use the existing chassis from their current model. Just need to redesign the top half of the model.

    Love to see a Q6 and G5.

    I am rather surprised neither of the 'big two' produce industrials. Given the vast amount of standard designs by Barclay et al I would have thought there was a lot of mileage in the tooling - i.e. various industries/NCB regions/and limited editions for preserved railways.

    Industrials! Not just austerities in various colours or toys with 'x colliery' painted on the side but some proper industrials! :D

    I have to echo the comments above, I would love to see an S160 in OO gauge! Of course this would have to be completed with a high standard sound set! Bring it on!!!

    Hmm yeah I'd go for that too! Not sure how I'd fit it in to a late 60s colliery layout, but I'm sure I could find a way!

    I bought one of the blood & custard corridor 1st class Maunsell carriages a couple of weeks ago. It cost about £25 from my local model shop and the detail on the carriage is superb. Just waiting for the rest of the blood and custard Maunsells' to arrive on the shelves in the shop now.
