centraltrains Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 So a Colas 67 isn't modern then? Cheers, Mick "Nothing else passenger stock wise for modern.."

Covkid Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Yes. That blue "East Asiatic" Merchant does look really tasty indeed. Surprised there isn't as single new wagon design there but the Pumpherston tank wagon livery looks like a good sop to the Scottish modellers. Would they be a match for "Maude" ?

rovex Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 (edited) Phew my wallet can breath a sigh of relief (and my long suffering partner) Interested in the Maunsell first kitchen diner as part of a cross country service. Out of interest would the second/third open have been used to provide second/third accomodation for the kitchen car?

Benjamin Brady Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Excellent to see the reintroduction of the virgin stuff, especially the addition of the Virgin 87.

RMweb Gold RFS Posted January 8, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 8, 2018 (edited) Can't see the Maunsell First diner in the text that is mentioned in the heading?

RMweb Premium Legend Posted January 8, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 8, 2018 (edited) J36 . At last something Scottish and a delightful wee engine too . NB one a must, although I note it says ERA 7 , so that must be as preserved. LNER one maybe and a BR one , but id modify to late crest, Can run it with a green 37 on Longannet coal trains Others of interest too: Blue MN Castle Class single chimney Collett tender , at last! A little surprised at Streamline Coronation . I suppose that's to use new Duchess chassis, but did it need a new body , I thought the old one was very acceptable . Have to laugh....another NSE Class 50 Overall seems a bit tame compared to previous years , but that's understandable and overall I think theres enough to generate excitement . J36 Yay! Oh poop! Just noticed Maud is DCC TTS . Why do they do that...................... Edited January 8, 2018 by Legend 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold papagolfjuliet Posted January 8, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 8, 2018 The 'Cross Canada Diesel Freight' train set sounds interesting. Is this the old Tri-ang Transcontinental stuff, or something from Rivarossi? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
trevor7598 Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 My chief wish has been granted !. The Maunsell restaurant car !. A long time coming, but now to become a reality. Also delighted to see the Maunsell TO/SO in Blood and Custard. Might as well have a Lord Nelson to haul them. Of no interest to me, but i'm pleased for the Scottish boys.

David Stannard Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 (edited) Looks like I have dodged another bullet there, it's a pity that the AA15 Toad is only in BR livery, oh well there is always next year, I would however like to get my hands in a black Peckett as I am planning on building a small colliery as part of a future layout.

Fireline Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 For those wondering, I have already enquired, and the 5Bel centre coaches announced will NOT mate with the previous versions of the 5Bel. It has apparently been re-engineered to make the whole thing easier to couple. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steamport Southport Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Phew my wallet can breath a sigh of relief (and my long suffering partner) Interested in the Maunsell first kitchen diner as part of a cross country service.

James90012 Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Nice list, I was initially impressed with the format, but actually it is littered with errors (Virgin Trains East Coast Class 87 and DVT anyone?) and some of the formatting makes it difficult to read - particularly the 'number of units' column. Virgin 87 and maybe the Loadhaul 60 for me! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium brushman47544 Posted January 8, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 8, 2018 (edited) I like the way the information is presented around the images, to show the era and regions(s) of operation. A pity though that there's not a better description of the livery and they're still side on. Presumably they will be like that in the catalogue? The livery details may be clear from the image but not always - presumably Princess Coronation 6221 will be blue and 6229 and 6244 red, but will the majority of buyers know that? Good to see a BR Green Late Crest Castle with single (as opposed to double) chimney at last. I hope 50033 in NSE livery will have the correct darker blue and the nameplate correctly positioned so it reads "Glorious Network SouthEast". Good to see some more Maunsell coaches in BR (S) Green at last. And presumably to be available together to make up accurate coach sets. No new tooling coaches or wagons by the look of it. I suppose this is a result of the financial problems and a need to cut back the range of all new models. So be it, but could it mean Bulleids were to be announced but have to removed following Bachmann's announcement? Hopefully not for Hornby's financials. EDIT shouldn't there be a Maunsell restaurant car? No image in Andy's list just mentioned in the heading.

RMweb Premium John M Upton Posted January 8, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 8, 2018 Two oddities here: Deffered items from 2017 marked as sold out so presumably only included to pad it out a bit and more BR black S15s when the last batch are still floating around heavily discounted.

Skinnylinny Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Why ? Take the chip out that is all that is needed surely. Yes, though it's frustrating to have to pay the extra price for the model to be DCC fitted, only to have to disassemble what's likely to be a fairly delicate model and remove the chip (plus acquire a blanking chip and fit that) if one isn't going to use it!
