Is there a room for another Mk3 coach range in 00

[dogbox321]

I think there is always a market for a "better product", but that also has to come at a reasonable price, when rakes are required.  Plus in the case of Mk3's - they really need to "match" associated products.  Also - with an HST "Wizzing" around a layout - can you actually see the fine details when its being run.  A 6 or 7 coach, plus 2 HST powercars looks pretty impressive. If someone did one at a silly price (so most people only have one or two coaches), and with colours that did not match the powercars from another manufacturer - would it really look very good?

 

The more interesting point, would be instead of doing a "traditional" Mk3 - how about starting the ball rolling with tooling for Sliding doors a-la GWR and soon to be Cross Country MK3's... Then perhaps a slide or something to allow traditional vehicles to be made, if viable...
