Default Got me a bargain + LMS Princess set

Just picked up a Midland Mainline HST (new livery) for £65. Not bad, eh?

Also, if anyone's interested, I found this on eBay

Sounds interesting, i knew of Hornby's HST (who hasnt!) but i'll have to look into Lima. They're not a common maufacturer i know about.

They were brought out by hornby hence why Hornby are relasing some Ex Lima Locos like the 52??? 59 67 73 and the GWR railcar. In the future i could see hornby using Lima mould for the 37 and 47 as they were better than Hornby's but then it is Hornby!!!

Ohh yes i remember now, it was Lima that did the Mk 3s. They had the potential to be converted into a 442s. I wish someone would bring out a 442, I think Bachmann would be the likely candidate. So far we've seen the South West Trains 159 and 170, all in good time i hope.
