RMweb Gold big jim Posted September 27, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 27, 2015 But that wouldn't be Bachmann. oh yeah! in that case 37057 in its current mainline guise Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Black Hat Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 A Brush Type 4 in two tone green, small yellow panel and Serck shutters. Only half the class entered service in this guise, so it is a must. Would that include 47830 in its current guise as that would be my guess. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfsup Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 If we're going down the guessing route, with something that is up to date and current - and going by Rail Express / Rail Exclusives more recent models. I'd hazard a guess at one of the new gWr liveried 57/6s. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Ryde-on-time Posted September 28, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 28, 2015 ...........................and going by Rail Express / Rail Exclusives more recent models. .......... I thought they were separate companies now? Is it Rail Express or Rail Exclusives who are making an announcement? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Pike Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 I have it on good authority that Bachmann are working on a pair of certain themed class 66's, but would have thought they would be a LTM release rather than Rail Express. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Black Hat Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 If we're going down the guessing route, with something that is up to date and current - and going by Rail Express / Rail Exclusives more recent models. I'd hazard a guess at one of the new gWr liveried 57/6s. Problem with guessing is that with things ever changing on the current scene you still need to factor in a lead time for the model to be produced. It would help if there was a run in production of the class that your wanting to add onto, so as to speed things up and maintain timing. That all depends if Bachmann can accommodate the extra run. Even 47830 might be too late to be considered. 37401 in its present guise is another that it could be... Or it could go retro and produce something that was popular at the time. Interesting nonetheless. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
45059 Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 I had heard that someone has secretly been badgering all and sundry to produce a Fell for quite some time now... Hat, coat etc. (Well, no one had mentioned it thus far!) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mevaman Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 It is likely to be something to add volume to a forthcoming production run. The next run of 47s are due Dec/Jan so my bet is that it will be a duff. By the way, despite my previous Kernow connections, I have absolutely no inside knowledge on this and most likely will be proved wrong!

159220 Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 In another thread Chris Leigh hints that Bachmann is working on another commission for someone and that it is an all new model. I have it on good authority that Bachmann are working on a pair of certain themed class 66's, but would have thought they would be a LTM release rather than Rail Express. There may or may not be an announcement from LTM at Warley this year. This is getting exciting, is it a new tooling, or is it a London Underground 66. Certainly all sounds promising, and with the surprise announcement from Locomotion for the NRM Class 43 238 2015 has turned into a rather golden year for modern liveries. Only one way to win at frothing now, list everything! (Its list or watch the Catch on C4....) Modern liveries: 47s in Dec/Jan. - West Coast - rumoured GBRf (Riviera) - Riviera Trains - Freightliner - Two Green - Colas 37s expected Nov/Dec/Jan - DRS revised - DRS 401 - West Coast - Colas (to run with 37421) - Europhoneix - Network Rail 08s Dec/Jan - rumoured Freightliner Powerhaul - Riviera Trains - Network Rail - EMT - GWR 66s Jan/Feb - GBRf MSC - GBRf Clouds - GBRf London Underground - rumoured 'special' last 66 to be built GBRf New tooling: Class 800/801 Class 185 Class 180 Class 175 Class 73/9 either RVEL or Brush 09/Victoria Line Stock 95/Northern Line Stock I have it on good authority that the Electrostar series of units are being looked at by someone, who could or could not be likely to be me...

Same thing happens on TV news now - headline is often about the fact that the government (or other organisation) will announce a policy later that day, instead of just waiting and reporting the actual policy.

Purley Oaks Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 If you want to talk emu's how about all the modern sliding door units like the 313, 314, 315, 317, 319, 320, 321, 455, 456, 507, 508 Or the plug door units 323, 332, 333, 442, 444. There is no point suggesting the 350 or 450 as Bachmann have already made them. At Model Rail Scotland earlier this year the Bachmann spokesman told me that the 350/450 units had not sold as well as expected, as you can tell from the discount on them at some retailers, so it may be some time before they tackle another 4-car unit, with the 5-car 442 very unlikely, but these are just my personal assumptions from that chat.
