The pair of us bought 73140 in 2001 and have run it for over ten years. Previously, we purchased 73003 as a group and have helped get 73210 running again and also 73119 more importantly on the third rail (not for the faint hearted!).
A couple of links for 73140 are here...

Sorry if this is going a bit off topic, but if you look at the second link, the cubicles at the end of the video are full of electrical equipment dating from the early 1960s. Vintage it is! and made by the English Electric Company - only the best kit was used here!
