I'll be honest. I like Bachmann's 0n30 stuff. But something I've seen by them just screams out "rubbish" to me!

"Limited edition [b]Spirit of England[/b] Express only 999 worldwide!
The sense of romance evoked by locomotive travel surpasses any other form of transport – particularly when travelling through the tranquil British countryside. The combination is pure delight: a feast for the senses, as unspoilt vistas unfold with every passing moment, revealing centuries of history and mystery. Now you can revisit the time-honoured tales of battles won, trophies raised and British icons born, with the Spirit of England Express – exclusively available from The Hamilton Collection and limited to just 999 editions worldwide."
I'm not so sure if this is a joke or not. Who would buy this tat? The thing it needs is a decent repaint, but then again I bet there are some rich fools out there...
But if you want to support a certain Mr. Obama...
