  1. My reading of it is that it cannot be driven by the DC controller alone, but then again one must presume that if you’ve gone to the trouble of getting and fitting the Bluetooth decoder that you wouldn’t particularly want to
  2. there does appear to be a bit of confusion just now. I definitely want a BR non-valanced version, so may need to change about once things are finally ironed out :)
  3. the listing doesn’t actually say that it’s in BR Green - you might get lucky :)
  4. I’d go for a GWR streamliner :) BR Condition B17/5 pre ordered at Kernow - my only pre order from the announcements this year. Thank god - my wallet has taken to hiding in the cupboard because of my hobbies
  5. the switch already appears to have been made according to Kernow’s website - East Anglian is now the BR condition loco
  6. Now this could be a massive deal for them - bravo on this one
  7. The only thing from this morning that I am likely to buy :) City of London for me please :) I don’t like the valances - for me all of the streamlined locos looked a hundred times better without them
  8. praying for an intercity liveried ‘Hood’ :)
  9. from the official Hornby instagram
  10. I’ve got the same - yesterday does do short fifteen minute documentaries and the like, this could be one of those
  11. Well, got the chance to run it yesterday with some almost prototypical and some not almost prototypical locos. fantastic model, couldn’t be happier with it
  12. Yup, just got mine back today as well
  13. But I want them nooooow!!! Waaah!! Seriously, it is great that you are keeping us so well informed about this - I look forward to them arriving :)
  14. when I was on the sleeper to fort William last year, we had a class 66/73 combo from Edinburgh onwards
  15. afraid not, that is this model edit - actually going on the Rails website to look confirms your idea - oops. Sorry about that
  16. Has there been a confirmation of the Jan 10th date for the new range? I appear to have missed it if so
  17. Just got this update from Rapido in their end of year newsletter
  18. Edge

    when first announced I really didn’t like the look of the LNER green, but its growing on me :)
  19. sincerely hope that all goes well with the delivery. However as EVRI is essentially a re-branded Hermes service my personal experience is that even a striking Royal Mail delivery service is better in every way. had no choice but to order something via eBay GSP about two months ago. American postal services got the parcel to the UK in four days. It has been at the EVRI distribution office ever since.
  20. I know that Kathy Millat is doing one
  21. the timeframe given at time of return was 8-10 weeks and by my reckoning we are about five weeks out from the day of the recall announcement. That timeframe was also a ‘best estimate’ at the time, there are potential for more delays which couldn’t be foreseen.
  22. I read it as saying that they have some stock unexpectedly early and will dispatch to those who ordered earliest first.
  23. I will be getting both of the ladies in due course in their Ffestiniog guise when they come out (although I will wait for the blue Linda and current day Blanche), but it’s good to see progress towards that :)
  24. For once, my prediction was bang on :)
  25. I believe that there were one or two tweaks to make to livery based upon the painted samples, so painting may not be needed on the final model
