Welcome to The Forum Karen.

I find your question a bit confusing. Are you asking about Midland Coaches or about The Locomotive 1000: The Midland Compound?

I understand that 1000 is due to move up to The Bo'ness and Kinneil Railway in the near future, so it will be much nearer to you!

The books mentioned above will be helpful for more information on Midland Coaches and 1000 is well documented in "An Illustrated Review of Midland Locomotives" Vol. 2 by R.J. Essery and D. Jenkinson and "Midland Railway Locomotives" Vol 4 by Stephen Summerson.

Best wishes,

John H-T.
