I was thinking earlier, a lot of these requests in wishlists will proberly be ignored, so why not have a go yourself? Faces wouldnt be hard to do, get some milliput and mould faces, then stick them on the desired stock. An easy one would be spitful brakevan, get a bachmann UK 20 ton brakevan and mould a face on the one end, job done! There are others that are easy while sme more could be a little difficult, Harvey, Lady etc. I am going to attempt the prototype on which Harvey is based on though, hopefully it will turn out alright.

It's pretty easy to make stuff yourself once you learn a thing or two  ;)

The face for the van is it wooden or tomix?

That face is from some rare TTTE product & 7029cluncastle,Milliput can also be used to make some locomotive body parts & details.

Jack, your Rheneas is the ERTL model correct? I have one of them awaiting a motor so least i know it has been done! I also have a Rusty awaiting a motor too.

No, the face is only ERTL. I'm pretty sure he used an 009 Dolgoch model?  :)
