I'm not on that side of the pond, but what do you mean by "chipping" the locomotive? Logic tells me it involves installing electronics, not putting them through a very large shredder/mulcher, though the visual is somewhat amusing. ("NO, that's NOT how you kitbash!!!")

The cost of B-Mann vs the cost of Chipping would be the driving factor for me
