    1. Thoroughly confusing many as to what many of them are?
    2. With me asking you - what is wrong with Class 37s and Class 47s, - and especially Deltics!

    1. Obviously some of us have longer spectrums than others (for those unsure of classes note 10000 = LMS Derby Co-Co introduced 1947; Class 14 = D9500-9555; Class 28 = D5700-5719; Class 31 D5500-5699 + 5800-5862; Class 33 = D6500-6597; Class 44/45/46 = D1-193; Class 52 = D1000-1073; Class 56 = 56001-56135; Class 73 = E6001 - 6049; Class 74 = 74001-10; Class 77 = E27000-06; Class 89=89001; Class 92=92001-46).

    2. I never said said there was owt wrong with your choices - especially since I have had lengthy cab rides in class members (i.e. + 50 miles on the main line) - just asking where MY choices place me on YOUR spectrum.

    Apologies for going off at a tangent but there are some of us partial to "a bit of the other" whilst still appreciating the original.
