This layout is
based on early 1960's South West England during the transition from
steam to first generation diesels. The layout went to the
Croydon show in October 2007 running as a DCC layout with sound in
many of lthe ocomotives. The unrebuilt Bullied light pacifics use the Howes Loksound
decoders and sound very good.
Total number of Bullied light pacifics as of Jully 2011 is now over 34 (both rebuilt and unrebuilt).
