  8. The Autumn Steam Gala visitors have been announced: Peckett 0-4-0ST 'Teddy' and Andrew Barclay 0-4-0ST 'Colin McAndrew'. I wonder what they will do.
  9. The year would be 1995. When LU bought 3 MK 2b TSOs from NSE. The coaches were in NSE livery at Steam On The Met 1995. I believe they were also used in NSE livery on the Jubliee Line, as part of Stanmore Depot Open day in September that year. They were repainted into Metropolitan Maroon by Steam On The Met 1996.
  10. Just looked at the ticket site. The 11:01 from Harrow on Saturday has sold out. The 13:10 has nearly sold out on both days, with a couple of First class Chesham set tickets avilable on the Saturday and a handful of Standard tickets on the Sunday.

  17. The three LT livered models have arrived at Heljan. They should be on their way to retailers. Sarah Siddons is still planned but will be in a future batch. https://www.facebook.com/heljanas/posts/974453989284134

  19. According to the Buckinghamshire Railway Centre loco roster, Met 1 may be in use on 30 & 31 August.
  20. I can't renumber if the liveries have been mentioned before, but Gaugemaster has some pictures for the liveries on their website. Yeo: Lynton & Barnstaple Railway http://www.gaugemaster.com/item_details.asp?code=HN9950&style=main&strType=&Mcode=Heljan+9950 Exe: Southern Railway http://www.gaugemaster.com/item_details.asp?code=HN9951&style=main&strType=&Mcode=Heljan+9951 Taw: Southern Railway http://www.gaugemaster.com/item_details.asp?code=HN9952&style=main&strType=&Mcode=Heljan+9952
  21. Was that the Bachmann RRP or a retailers made up price? (I know the LMS Inspection Saloon and GWR Autocoach didn't have a RRP but Hattons had pre-order prices which had no hope of been kept, when announced at the same time. I'm not sure about if the Thompsons had a RRP announced or not.)
  22. My ticket has arrived. Looking at the ticket site carriage 353 has completely sold out apart from two seats on the 15:10 train on 12th September.
  23. Tampo printing https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=955686401139574
