Percy shunts Melbridge Dock

Looking back through some old photos this week, I found this one of my upgraded Hornby Percy shunting Melbridge Dock.

The loco has a Branchlines 2-stage gearbox, Mashima motor, Romford wheels, Gibson crossheads and runs as well as anything I've ever built. It really can shunt. 

To be honest, had the Bachmann version been available as a grey import at the time, I'd probably not have bothered, but then it was a fun project and that's what it's about isn't it?
