If any of us are at the Toyfair, starting on Tuesday, I'd love to see some photos of the LNER N7 locomotive. Oxford Rail were expecting to show it at the Toyfair, so hopefully ..... The N7 is a model I'm really looking forward to.

I got an odd email from Oxford this morning, saying you get the rail mounted gun, and an ROD liveried Dean Goods for £49.95 :O , plus other combinations and various new wagons. When you click on the link to their website it says no products to show. Somebody seems to have made a screwup.

That's an unfair comment. It will be just a question of getting the website fully set up - no doubt the links will work in a few days time. Meantime, you have got information hot off the press, coinciding with the start of London Toyfair this morning.

Really , is that it? Quite a unique bit of rolling stock its not going to be appropriate for the vast majority of layouts I've seen . I can only think of one , is it Overlord which features a WW2 Quayside scene.

 

Anyone else see the irony in the product code OR76 BOOM 01

 

Am I missing the main rail announcement?

I'm surprised we even got that much, I wasnt expecting anything except maybe a few re-liveries.

The email from Oxford ended up in a junk folder...

 

Ok, railguns.

 

The link in the email  to view First Release Products opened as:

 

Oxford Rail Release 1-2018

Future In the Oxford development programme, for release at a future date
Sold Out This item is sold out and no longer available
 

There are no products in this collection.

 

*sigh*

 

Oxford are like the famed German Holidaymaker.  They get out early, leave their towel on the sunlounger then we don't hear any more for ages.....

 

Or perhaps they like the Mushroom Theory of management!
