87s in Carlisle...

I'm drooling over those BR Blue MKIII's! They never did look the same in IC and even worse in Virgin.


Ahhh, I can here them hissing now.....

Martin,

I thought about it, didn't like them so made them with brecknell's.

I am still considering one with a cross arm, I'll have to see what ACLG say, one other reson was that each 87 representative front end config is in the pack so using the BW panto makes for better models for the reskinners who want to do new liveries.

I am still thinking about doing at least 1 in the older config though
