woodenhead Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 But a 37/9 must be in with a shout for a third run - I presume they haven't been and gone given they have a unique roof. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium E100 Posted May 22 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 22 1 hour ago, McC said: Actually we've made a large investment in additional tooling for Run 3, which will be announced a little while away (once the Run2 is on the way) Sorry, for avoidance of doubt the point I was trying to make was that you actually have already said that things like the OG 37/4's and 37/7's amongst many others have all been allowed for within the overall tooling package (i.e. you've allowed for basically everything at project inception and many of those tooling investments are yet to break cover) and I assume that doing 37409 in it's current state would go above and beyond that initial planned tooling. That's obviously no comment on the viability of making such a tooling provision now and slotting it into an earlier run to capitalise on the potential popularity. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidlandRed Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 A potential significant addition could be the Robert Stephenson Hawthorn built version with their subtle variations such as cantrail grilles, and also the headlight fitted WR examples - all from the BR 1960s/70s era. 1 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
50025 Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 37/9 please 👍 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melton Works Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 (edited) Well my wish list would be, 37716 (DRS fade) a decent DRS 37/4 in compass livery (405,419,425) Either blue or green ROG, 80s 37/4s and Scotrail 37409. Oh yes and both variants of 37/9 (Ruston and Mirrlees) Anyone agree with these?...

Yes but there are other differences on the RSH built locos which have yet to appear and do require changes to 'tooling' in its wider sense (e.g the original yellow warning panel style which would require a different tampo (or whatever) print from the Vulcan Foundry built locos. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a matter of interest, would the 37/9 roofs be located within the magnetic lift off section ? In other words, could a new 37/9 roof panel (two different sorts Mirrlees and Ruston) fit in the lift off roof space of the existing refurb bodyshell ? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus reinstated body side window? I can imagine that more of the mainline class will be so equipped (led) or more expensive drs machines will be de-socketed so maybe worth tooling up The LED tail lights are present on the DRS ones. It’s the side window and removed multi socket that aren’t. The forthcoming 37422 almost gets you there as it has the side windows but still requires front end mods.

I think the roof mods are contained within the removable section. Happy to be corrected though. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
