On a visit last week 2 the Grosmont sheds, saw an engine resembling the above. Does any of our bretheren accross the pond have any recomendations as to the best HO model to purchase?

Personal Ad - Railway Tavern @ Grosmont is a must if you are visiting - Good food and Black Sheep Beer on Tap! :D

The only model I'm aware of is a British kit - from DJH I think. HO scale and British!

Lots were made and they worked in many countries, so you'd expect it to be a popular model. I suspect divided scale standards are a problem. I've looked for one in N, and would buy it if someone was to make one...
