How about some decent wagons instead of endless wish lists for obscure prototypes.

The Seacows are excellent, but there's so much rubbish in the range.
The divide between adult models/toys and trainset standard items, is quite marked in the Hornby range.
When it comes to wagons, they do quite poorly for adult modellers.

Looking at the 2006 catalogue, the only worthwhile wagons are:

Seacows
HAAs
HBAs
CDAs
MHAs
VEE Tanks (not the ex-Lima bogie ones which are awful)
