The Director of Northcord comes all the way from Hong Kong and does his own photographs for a lot of their models.

The good news is he is visiting NXWM again in 10 days time!

x1 - 99 branded E200 - 99
x1 - Wright Pulsar Eclispe 2 - 29 / 29A / 98 / x64

This. (Would be my ideal set as well. Good job.)

If I'm honest they need something Southern anyway. As I don't remember anything apart from the 18-route metro and 45/7 branded metro models. Anyone else know of original BC routes on a model, let me know.

One thing Daimler Mercedes Benz are good at is producing excellent Diesel engines, I do miss the sound of the 0405n for all its faults you couldn't knock that 12 litre engine.

It was 'Y787 TOH' for 4183.

Also, the Jubilee Trident was 4128 on the 51, Birmingham via Scott Arms

My mistake... I read it off the Unofficial CMNL site and must've misread it.  ::)
