I would mate. If only I was £500 richer.

Make up for the fact that for the few Cotswold Rail 47's I've seen (Cam Peak, Joe Strummer and John Peel), 47200 The Fosse Way wasn't one of them.

Never saw it, and now I never will. But that's just life I suppose.

Cheers!

Nothing special about it Dave. But cotswold had 033, 200 and 316 sitting at Gloucester and none turned a wheel in up tp 2 years. 47033 hasn't turned a wheel since it was withdrawn in 1998. They should of replaced the power unit in 200 (got a completely seised unit) with the one out of 033 which has been partially overhauled like they said was the plan. Instead they scrap the best out of the 3. And when i say best i mean that 47200 had mainline certification. air tanks certification and so on. I'd like to think that 47316 will come back for these same reasons but word has it that 033 and 316 could be following 47200.........

I quite agree. Though I'd like to see 033; I've already seen and capped Cam Peak, Joe Strummer, John Peel and Captain Sensible (also as Virgin 47810 Porterbrook before joining Cotswold).

Cheers!
