Have you decided which one it will be and which livery it'll be in?

Thundered, Crusader and invader are favourites at the moment and it most likely be maroon, but there is always the chance I will change my mind.
As usual, I have been totally distracted reading through my books, and I reckon I need to build about half a dozen of them :lol:
The most eye-watering aspect of it is the cost of the whole package ?450 + wheels, and ABC bogie :shock: Its a good job I sold off a lot of stock to fund things

Unfortunately the cost is a recurring theme when it comes to JLTRT kits. I've just bought an "as new" R-T-R Undecorated GP38-2 (one of them Yankee machines, y'know
) off US Ebay. I have yet to pay the Import Duty on it, but so far it's cost ?105 inc Shipping... I could get quite a fleet for the All-up price of one JLTRT loco. Or, put another way around, even if I sold ALL my US outline stuff, I wouldn't be able to buy more than one JLTRT loco... :roll: :evil:
