Paul some of the Yahoogroups have information on slam door gen may be worth
investigating those to help you on your conquest.

SET still have the former SWT CEPs 169x around, Southern have a few bits and
pieces and SWT are not far off from complete withdrawal (seeing as there are
a lot of swaps and short formations I gather)
