I have a few DMU's but i would like more because in the North west, it is the main sort of train you see in in my area. So far i have a class 155 but in the future i would like a class 158, class 156, clas 175 (if i ever find one!).
I am very lucky to won a Dapol Pendolino with two extra carrages making it a six car set. The problems with it is that the motor end is extremely heavy and due to the pull only couplinks, it cam be a pain to push it when it gets stuck, and extremely hard to get it back onto the rails! I would like to replace it when the new Hornby DCC set arrives in November time. I will probably try and make it full length so i will have to by a DCC set and a normal one to get the two Pantograph coaches i need to complete it. This isn't all bad news beacuse i can use one of the dummies to rig up a couplink so it can be pulled by my class 57. I would usually (when running the full length hornby pendolino) use both driving ends from the two packs, and when i want it to be hauled by the class 57, replace one of the ends and add in the dummy and the class 57.
Hopefully, this is what are model will look like!I also have a bachmann super voyager class 221 which has got to be one of my smoothest runners, only topped by my class 60. I would like the normal voyager class 220 as well, i may also get 2 and couple them together like you sometimes see.
