Hi Gavin I think that you are spot on. The photo is in the current 'Trains' magazine but I have compressed and stretched it a bit to make it fit the long thin format of the signature. Have you had a peek at my thread about it? I also tried to simulate the ski train with the heritage SD70 in the snow yesterday. It is at http://www.gscalecentral.co.uk/f/m191629.aspx

Shades of the early days on the Taita Gorge Railway.... the side tank Porter is in the same colour scheme as my first loco (this is not the same loco, the original stripped a gear, and Bachmann refuse to supply a replacement), and new growth Dwarf Alberta Spruce trees that the nursery finally restocked, at the right price, after an absence of 10 years. Previous week, I paid twice the price for one tree at a 'named' centre. Unseasonal showers have had a positive spin off this summer, the ground hasn't dried out, and the garden is self watering.

I always thought it was a shame that Bachmann dropped the saddle in favour of the side ! Both nice locos though
