RMweb Gold Market65 Posted May 15, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 15, 2017 About ten years or so. I have one of the first ones in crimson and cream which I've heavily weathered. I think ti's late this year before Hornby release the D.73. Rob. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve1023 Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 If you zoom in on the 3rd image it does look to be open, but then it could be that it has no interior fitted.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Market65 Posted May 15, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 15, 2017 And still a question of something important that is missing. I shall keep mum for a little longer. lol Rob. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Decorum Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Hornby has a history of putting wrong interiors into coaches. Perhaps we might have to tolerate compartments in an “open” coach. Then perhaps Hornby has tried to compensate by leaving the lavatories open. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then perhaps Hornby has tried to compensate by leaving the lavatories open. Which ones were you thinking of? The only one I recall is the Mk2a BSO where the problem was not that the interior had compartments, but that the coach was decorated as a 2nd class one when it was in fact a BFK (and indeed the original Triang-Hornby version had been a BFK).

ThaneofFife Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 reminds me of some posts you see on FACEBOOK where you get folk make statements such as "what a bad day today"......or "I cannot believe it!" leaving everyone else bemused and having little choice but to get sucked into their world wondering what on earth they are referring to..........Oh, it was the wrong interior moulding. Got it now........ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
southernelectric Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 (edited) I'm somewhat confused. The Mk1 FO has already been done has it not? Fairly recently, by Bachmann. I have one of each in three different liveries (blue/grey, maroon and crimson/cream). Is the Hornby Mk1 FO different to the Bachmann one? In other words, is there more than one type of Mk1 FO?

Different diagrams. The Bachmann version very few were made, its based on the RFO version. The Hornby version is based on a prototype of hundreds.

royaloak Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 A quick search shows them as pre-order so its fair to assume they are not out yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
