    great pics david and many thanks for posting. any idea what the wagon was used for? the word fuel appears on the bottom left, so i am assuming that the pipe beside the wording is for fuel discharge....maybe? the mind boggles! happy new year to you:cheers:

    i remember well when i was a nipper at school, one of the 101's past by our classroom and the engine 'thunk thunk' sound rattled the bejasus out of the windows! she didnt have any fitted at that time. you may ask how i remember so well? the brother threw a wooden duster at me and knocked me sideways! ..(the f...er!). it was that sudden impact that started my love for trains....and a hatred of school! thanks for the replies john and paul!

    hi lads, now that des has released the sulzer kit, im picking brains again! did the 1100 and the B101 sulzers ever have tablet catchers fitted? cant find any pics of with then on, but if the steamers, the metro vic and 141's had them, it seems logical to conclude that they were fitted, being the locos that bridged the gap between them. any thoughts?
