great choices especially the K3. The W1 in rebuilt form would be a good model too, it was rebuilt into the ultimate A4. Both Mallard and the rebuilt W1 "Pegasus" were SNG's pet loco's. A high speed trail was planned for the rebuilt W1 in 1939 and a second

run with Mallard was planned but war stopped the speed trails. The rebuilt W2 with more power than a Duchess or A4 would have been a strong contender for the record. The rebuilt W2 is sometimes refered to as a "super A4". A loco that never got it's chance

to shine. Shame it went for scrap in 1959. Would make a great model in as built and rebuilt form

Well you can get a K3 from that other lot and it's a great model, one of my favourites. I'd love a W1, either original or rebuilt. I'm holding off on a B17 in case Hornby do the streamlined version. A heavy goods like a P1 would also be great.
