The era system is still in use, sometime's they're called epochs but it's the same thing. I'm not sure about the suggestion that you use a model of "Flying Scotsman" painted black - this would look nothing like a European steamer as British models are to 4mm/1ft OO scale rather than the 3.5mm/1ft HO scale that the rest of the world uses (the track gauge is the same however, though there are people who handlay track and modify their stock to the correct gauge - should be 18.83mm rather than 16.5mm). Triang Hornby are now called simply Hornby, and they only offer British-outline models.
