Hi Ged

With the numbering it is imperative that you always keep the same number of digits.
So in the case of the Peaks it must always have 15 ( need to check that ) letters or numbers.

The first 5 are used for the engine number and the 6th is used for the nameplate. ( It will probably be # when you first look )

Delete this # and substitute any of the following characters
! " £ $ % ^ & * ( )

Each will give you a different nameplate on the model.

Reading those names makes me realise just how much the younger generation of railway enthusiasts have missed out on. Nameplates on EMUs/DMUs just aren't the same. It makes me feel nostalgic for the days when a smelly, noisy, dirty diesel would make a spectacular sight proudly bearing it's nameplate :)
