Super Power

Difficult to choose our favourites on New Mills. Our stud of Stanier's pacifics are very special and so too our fleet of Black Fives...but what about the mighty 9Fs, the cascaded Brits, the awesome English Electric 40s!  Right up there are the 8Fs and 'The Guru' (Rob) has recently added two further examples to our representatives of this class with 48500, seen above passing 48773 earlier this week, both 'ex works'. The excellent Hornby model has undergone the application of appropriate weathering and detailing to replicate their work-stained appearance during those 'final years' on the WCML and are now ready to perform at the Derby Show next month.
