I just saw that Roco is coming out with an HOn30 (H0e) Fairlie. Certainly an interesting model!

It looks (to me) like it is based off of a Ffestiniog locomotive (Wales...the inspiration for the D&RG).

The model would make an excellent starting point for the D&RG's most unique locomotive...the Mountaineer!
