hmrspaul Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 The 7mm one appears to be coming along. A decorated render is illustrated on page 255 of the March Railway Modeller. Paul 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaymzHatstand Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 There was a sample in one of the cabinets at the Peco stand at Warley. Not the best photo, as it was through the glass, and positioned behind the overlap in the two panels of the cabinet. It looks rather tidy, and I'm certainly looking forward to getting one or two. I didn't get chance to speak to anyone about them, so can't provide any more gen! Cheers J 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the same prototype. It and the LNER grain wagon (next to it in the cabinet) are still WIP with no delivery update, (I asked), except for ‘next year’. The 13T hopper is also being produced in 7mm scale, there were no updates on that model. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Saunders Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Peco seem to have forgotten or prioritised other projects as non of the stockists are complaining about the non appearance of these. Peco need prodding to produce it, as the best reply from them was later in the year! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium it's-er Posted December 3, 2020 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted December 3, 2020 During the virtual Warley this last weekend 28/29 November, one of the YouTube presentations was an interview with Peco. As part of that Peco showed a photograph of "PC-90 Our very first new Parkside wagon kit the BR (ER) 13 ton hopper wagon. Ready for production!" The model isn't the same one in Jaymz's photograph above (a year ago!), as it is painted (undercoat only?), with a black chassis. Peco also showed a painted and decorated sample of the O gauge version, which really does look superb. I don't know if anyone (Peco?) can forward the photographs to here, for everyone's enjoyment?

26power Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Going through some old copies of Backtrack filleting out what is of interest to me and I noted a colour picture with a couple of these in the background. One looks to have some sort of "Return to" or similar instructions painted on and the other looks to have/have had some sort of large label on its side. Unfortunately I couldn't read either. Cannot post here because of copyright but the picture is from 12/10/63 in a spread by Dick Riley about Banbury shed and in Vol. 5, No. 4 (July/August 1991) if anyone is really keen to see it! Sorry if so esoteric but I don't think colour images of these are common? (Not aware of them running in Scotland, my area of interest, so haven't paid too much attention to them). Sorry to disappoint anyone looking for an update on introduction of this kit! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

More integration of ranges? https://peco-uk.com/collections/wonderful-wagons/products/petrol-tank-wagon-royal-daylight At least in 4mm, all rolling stock kits are clearly being moved under the Parkside brand. I'd guess the same is likely in 7mm with the Peco wagon kits also becoming Parkside (if it's not happened already). There also seems to have been some movement in the 4mm building kits and materials ranges but, the Ratio and Wills ranges have always overlapped to some degree. The logic of what should "belong" where is not obvious and uniting the lot as Ratio (or perhaps Ratio-Wills) would seem simpler than moving individual items between them. Then there's the (slightly) less random variety of N Gauge branding to consider..... I'd expect the "end-game" will see Peco as the flagship brand for track and electrics in all scales, plus the publications, and everything else as "Xxxxx by Peco". All the historical absorptions of other manufacturers neatly unified and ready to accept more should the occasion arise.
