Tin Turtle Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Happy to admit I am very, VERY excited about the release of a J72 0-6-0T in N gauge, a lovely little locomotive and spot on for my planned pre-1919 NER layout. Does anyone know how it is progressing, and any idea of a rough release date apart from 2015? Just really hoping it won't have a moulded on smokebox numberplate like the OO Mainline/Bachmann version Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les1952 Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Not a clue, but I'd be surprised if it were going to appear soon as there are a lot of others in the queue. Les (hoping to be surprised.....) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Les1952 Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Hello. i had a chat with Andy at Warley today (mainly about the prospect of another BR A4 with non-corridoor tender as "Bittern"s are a bit like rocking horse droppings). I asked if 2016 was a reasonable estimate for the appearance of the J72 and the answer was "yes", though he's hoping earlier rather than later. Hope this helps- at least I know that is one less pressure on the wallet in the next year.... Les Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les1952 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 With today's announcement of a Farish J72 time to get the skates on. First to market gets the sales..... Les Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodenhead Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Given the woes with the Dapol Pannier mech, I think the Farish J72 will take the sales. Of course when the Dapol does land if it is anything like a Pannier there'll be a heck of a lot of models to choose from. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les1952 Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 As I said on the Farish thread I need ONE J72 in N for Hawthorn Dene. Given that my Dapol Pannier and my new Farish Jinty BOTH wobble, whichever J72 hits the market FIRST will get the sale. Les Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
