In "real life" GWR 2-8-0Ts would have been rare on my layout as they tended to work only as far as Gloucester from South Wales but the 2-8-2Ts were more common, especially during WWII. However, I still want a 2-8-0T!

Hope that Hornby will be making a donation to the upkeep of 2807 from the proceeds of the sales of their model! Will probably order one from my local shop when he publishes his price.

Happy New Year,
