Its about time I steamed my trio again. Getting past the history thing with GBJ not beinbg amused at his trade mark/brnad name being reused . . . these are a great marque in their own right. I always sense a degree of sniffyness from some that they are not up to the mark ie like 'proper' Dereham Bowmans. Well they are, I love Derehem Bowmans I have 8 Bowmans, I love them, but I adore these engines made in the 'golden era' for British steam toys. The PW203 in particular has some very interesting design features. All are good runners, well made and with the light green bases, cut a very distinctive dash indeed. Bring em on!

You'll probably like the Latimer L5 as well, its strangely similar to the 203 in many ways...
