Ooh! Nice. What's the chances of them getting a proper soundset via 58016 and the CL58LG...? One can but hope...

As an aside, the 07 seems an odd one given its very limited scope of use.

I don't think that 016 is a runner at present?.

Also the locos in France and Spain, I am pretty sure at least of the former that they are currently OOU also.

I think you're right, Richard, but there's hope :)

Indeed. I was being generous when I said "very limited" ;)

EDIT: Although in the spirit of generosity, there are also a number of preserved examples, but stretching the imagination a little now.

A few 58s worked to Machen quarry at Newport and pretty sure a few worked to Cwmbargoed as well.

Unless someone is creating a route for the class 07 we dont know about. Regardless, I welcome the development of any quality models, especially british stock. Another hole in the class' s filled with a nice looking model indeed. I would say are spoiled for choice :D

Technically, we already have a pretty nice looking 07...
