RMweb Gold Roy Langridge Posted April 13, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 13, 2017 My money would be on a J17 and 02 shunter Class 02? Almost certainly as I was about to build a kit version. Roy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodenhead Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Anybody mentioned the APT-E yet..............? Oh..... Cheers, Mick That will never happen, about as likely as a pre-war Southern electric or a one off diesel prototype in O. I would have suggested a T3..........

iak Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 (edited) J35? Oh and an 06 in banger blue? Now that would be nice... Edited April 13, 2017 by iak 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium ColinK Posted April 13, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 13, 2017 Most people on RMweb will know 'Big Jim' had himself 3D scanned and models of him are now available to drive our model locos. So is Sandra going to get herself 3D scanned along with a huge pile of model APT-E boxes as a memento of her time at Locomotion? Then we can all have a miniature Sandra on our layouts as a reminder of the great work she has done for us. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Decorum Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 J35? Oh and an 06 in banger blue? Now that would be nice... I think a retooled 06 is long overdue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Decorum Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 I will go for the Wainwright D 4-4-0 (a Brighton atlantic is a possible, in proper livery of course, but I rule that out as it's not an NRM engine). If not the D then like Coachmann my money is on Hardwicke. Regrettably I don't think it will be NER 1621. The diesel could be a GWR railcar but that's very much a long odds item. Sadly, Hardwicke has been ruled out. It was mentioned before a “no smiley face” from Sandra. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold tractionman Posted April 13, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 13, 2017 Sadly, Hardwicke has been ruled out. It was mentioned before a “no smiley face” from Sandra. Indeed, I do wonder about a matching single, if not Cornwall then another possibility is the lovely Midland Railway 673. Would go nicely with the forthcoming Bachmann Midland 1P tank...

RMweb Gold Godfrey Glyn Posted April 13, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 13, 2017 Last time I was wandering around the NRM I was taken with the idea that Locomotion might very well produce the LNER Dynamometer Car, something that would be really interesting and unusual but something that would probably sell quite well. Obviously Sandra's initial post put an end to such thoughts but I still think it would be something that would generate a lot of interest. Wishlisting - guilty as charged! all the best Godfrey Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSpencer Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 One assumes this is something already tooled up and part of the NRM.... Hum... Q1 number C1 Hornby are doing the Q1 this year and C1 has never been done by them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steamport Southport Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 One assumes this is something already tooled up and part of the NRM.... Hum... Q1 number C1 Hornby are doing the Q1 this year and C1 has never been done by them. It does say "Brand new models" in the OP. One of which has already been mentioned. Hence the smiley face. One steam and one diesel, which rules out electrics and rolling stock. Jason Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

One steam and one diesel, which rules out electrics and rolling stock. Jason Yes brand new models but not necessarily brand new tooling. If Locomotion are struggling about giving the go for an HST prototype (a logical success story to follow the APT-E) and the Stirling single has lost a tender, then existing tooling is the only option. The first smily face I believe went to the diesel 47798, Prince William. Doubtless a Bachmann model. This leaves C1 (Q1 class) in the steam department. Edit: then again maybe not, they already did 47798 back in 2013! Edited April 13, 2017 by JSpencer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
