RMweb Premium John M Upton Posted September 9, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted September 9, 2018 I like that, also hopefully means that the next run of blue/grey Mk2 FK's is on the same boat with any luck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve1023 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 Is it really a MK2 or a MK2a disguised? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodenhead Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 Is it really a MK2 or a MK2a disguised? FK on the non corridor side. It would be nice to think they were doing a different Mk2 but how long have we been waiting for the air cons - I doubt people would be pleased to hear, instead we've snuck out some Mk2c Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium John M Upton Posted September 11, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted September 11, 2018 If I do get one, I shall run it with the printed on grille facing away as it is just a little too jarring! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tiger Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Is it really a MK2 or a MK2a disguised? It looks like a Mk2a disguised - it is missing the 4-part ventilators carried by the early Mk 2 FK. Bachmann produced the early Mk 2 FK in various liveries in OO (SR green, BR Maroon and Blue/Grey) which were prototypical. The model correctly featured Mk1 style Pullman gangways which were a unique feature of the early Mk 2 FK (and the prototype Mk 2 FK 13252) and had 4-part ventilators, but to me the proportions of the ventilators were distorted - way too deep. It would be great to have an accurate early Mk2 FK in N, but I suspect Test Car 6 and the other forthcoming releases will just be Mk 2a in disguise. Cheers Tom.

RMweb Premium John M Upton Posted September 17, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted September 17, 2018 Was there any indication when the Test Car is likely to be available? I am working on the theory that the catalogue blue/grey version FK will be on the same boat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
