For some reason model maufacturers have always had a problem with the Class 47. The current Class 47 offerings in OO are fantastic when compared to the N gauge examples from the 1980's. The Minitrix Class 47 in this pic http://www.railwayforum.net/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=882&cat=508 is well on the way to being a 37 judging by the size of it's nose and the later Grafar(later Bachmann) version isn't much better http://www.railwayforum.net/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=877&cat=508
As for Class 56..........well that's another story.
