I remember the summer ‘88 timetable change when the 155s replaced the class 33s. The through summer Saturday BTN - CDF on a few occasions had 4x155 in multiple. I caught it on one occasion. ISTR it lasted only for maybe 3 or 4 weekends though before being reduced to the more normal 2 or 4 car sets.

Cool. Class 33 then.

I’ve just seen an electronic copy of the new catalogue on key model world (you need an account/subscription). There is no mention now of the VEA being produced in the new catalogue. In the original catalogue it was listed as 3 liveries being produced. The catalogue also shows a digital render of the KFA as well as the 37. Steve

No. The original SR Mk2 FK were all gone by 1987. Pretty certain none made it into NSE at all.

Yes. As above, Peco have put a video on YouTube about the CDA and they do mention the other liveries. They also make a nice little diorama based on the Fowey line if you have 10 or so minutes free.

My NSE TSO has arrived. I am very happy with it. Lovely model. Gutted it didn’t show up in a NSE liveried box though.

Hi Adam. Sorry if I have possibly missed this somewhere, but are you able to say when the next run of class 33 will arrive. They were announced ages ago….. Thanks Steve

Hi. Thanks for this post and image. I’m quite excited by TT although the only item I have so far is the Esso TTA. I’m not on Facebook - are you able to say what was said or post an image on here? Also slightly confused regarding the quote above about the 37/47 - what does this mean? It looks promising seeing the final product in boxes and presumably, not that far away from retail (I’m interested in the 50 & Mk2f). Are there fears that Hornby are cooling on the TT project? Many thanks Steve

Could I ask if anyone else who has looked at the new edition if the images are pixelated at all. I have downloaded twice now with the same results. Thanks

Esso looks really nice. Might be my first TT purchase.

You are right in regard the RK with no red stripe. According to blood & custard the Fifteen Guinea special had two RKs in formation. M80037 had the red stripe and M80028 had a blue stripe.

I believe the REPs did have a red stripe, but not over the seated area, just the restaurant part of the coach.

The blue coach immediately behind the smoke box is the TC. It is a Mk1.

Class 33. All types. Finally we would have a new generation Crompton that would be right.

Nice. Perhaps in the future we will see a 1COR EMU produced.
