I live in Newport, South Wales, so where can I get one of these locos because the Heljan website says "the search for 'EWS Class 58' returned 0 results". Please help! They look so good but I can't find one!!!

@istich123 - Try all over the Internet, so Hattons, Amazon, eBay, Trident Trains, Rails of Sheffield, Olivia's Trains and anywhere else you can find.

@pyronathanpyro - are you sure it's the loco and not the points or track surface? You need to check each part of the electricity supply really. So check the track is clean, check the points are conducting, check the wheels on the loco are clean, check there's no fluff or hair clustered around the pick-ups on the loco itself, and if after doing all that she still keeps failing there might be a problem with the loco. To check, get another loco and see how that performs. Then get back to me :)
