Thank you for your kind words Davy.
The U2 4-4-0 (same as the one currently in the museum) is a hornby 2P locomotive that you can pick up for roughly £30, it is the older tender driven version, which I don't really like, it's not a smooth runner and very noisy, but it does have provesion for me to fit the newer 2P loco drive chassis, so when I get the money i will definitely upgrade her.
The 0-6-0 Y class is a hornby Jinty just simply re painted and re lined (about 1 1/2 years ago now)
your correct, it represents 1 of the 2 jinties that came from the LMS in 1941 and bought for £3000 each to help out with extra traffic and loses during the war.
Although the hornby model looks alright, I want to get a Bachmann one, seeing as the detail is far superior on the Bachmann model. And do another model this time of number 19.
For my U1 conversion, I'm looking at using the hornby T9 loco driven chassis, 2P body and a Bachmann short wheel base fowler tender.
Thanks for the interest,
Nelson
