.... A demo was presented to the MERG East Midland Area Group on 27/07/13... If I was to go for it, I think I would want to replace / recharge battery power with power from the rails. But apparently those present that day with the idea of a loco taking off over paving slabs.

Recently my brother in law spotted a preserved engine near Claregalway when headed back east. I had heard of it before but for the life of me I cant recall the details. Anyone know? Ger

Try the Athearn SW1500 -
... Wow - I thought at first that you had photoshopped in a 12 inches to the foot model!
