Swifty11 Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Quite a good selection this year for the D&E modeller, finally a DB 60! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Brasher Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Looks like Hornby are going to beat Bachmann and Kernow to the post with Hornby's Bulleid coaches and LSWR brake van. I look forward to comparing my Hornby Dublo Duchess of Montrose with the new Hornby version and I am pleased to see the clerestory coaches in the Railroad range. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenGiraffe22 Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 (edited) Bit of an anticlimax again this year for me, but that's okay, I need to buy a house this year. Good to see the 2Bil back Edited January 7, 2019 by GreenGiraffe22 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckymucklebackit Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Wonder if they will get the Scotrail Mk3s in the shops quicker than Scotrail are getting the prototype! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodenhead Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 (edited) Ok not new tooling - but re-releases of Clerestory stock is nice in two versions. Another Prairie, another direct competition with Dapol. Bow ended Colletts and new Bulleids. A cheap 66 to go up against Hattons and Bachmann, come on Dapol you're missing out on this one LOL. Very good selection from Hornby, this should be a good year for them. Edited January 7, 2019 by woodenhead Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Ian J. Posted January 7, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 7, 2019 Some good stuff announced, but I worry about the duplication with the 2Fs and Terriers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Captain Kernow Posted January 7, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 7, 2019 Oh my! Just look at those Pecketts and the 48DS. Oh my! I'm coming over all wobbly. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
66738 Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Not too much expense for me from this list. The construction class 60 and the Valenta and class 50 TTS chips about it. Another blue 31/1 skinhead but again no blue 31/4. They’d sell a load. I’d have had some mk 2f’s but i’ve a rake of Bachmanns already. Brave move but at a cheaper price, they will sell well. 66738 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete the Elaner Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 No 46257 or Sir William in LMS Black? Swing and a miss there. I can understand why not. Only a limited amount of new models can be produced each year, so do something different for 2019 then maybe return to this for 2020. A bunch of Mk2Fs? The price has brought this into direct competition with the well-regarded Bachmann ones. Mk2D may have been a better option. Railroad blue LMS Coronation coaches. This is a signal that they will NOT be doing accurate ones any time soon. I am not surprised by this. Nice to see them maximising liveries from the new class 87 tooling. Re-liveries on existing tooling is a trick they have not made the most of in the past so I really hope this works out well for them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

class37418stag Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Hello everyone Hornby 2019 has went wrong because hattons been ordered limited edition of class 66 from Bachmann was first by same livery from Hornby Range 2019 GRRR no livery of class 31 Mainline livery of Intercity and class 08 Railfreight But I will get that class 60 trainload contrustion livery and maybe get class 31102 Blue Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil gollin Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 . The "2-HIL" is a bit of a peculiar choice, but "adventurous" (in the Yes, Minister sense). Likewise the duplication ( ???? ) of the Bulleid coaches is odd. Good luck to them (and Bachmann). . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Kernow brake van is a different diagram anyway - its a Road Van. These are the 59' Bulleid coaches - arnt Bachmann doing the 63' versions?

I just hope that they fix the solebar issue from Mk2e's when they come to do the Mk2f's I cant help thinking they might've been better updating the Mk2Ds including the BFK 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widnes Model Centre Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 In a word "WOW". A "Big Boy", new Track Rubber (that has been needed for some time). Biffa 66, over excited!

RMweb Gold TheSignalEngineer Posted January 7, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 7, 2019 Looks like the grandsons will be getting an influx of extra stock for their layout in the shape of a Stanier Brake Van, some Bulleids, Large Prairie and B Set for starters. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Hilux5972 Posted January 7, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 7, 2019 These are the 59' Bulleid coaches - arnt Bachmann doing the 63' versions? Yes they are doing different versions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Dunsignalling Posted January 7, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 7, 2019 The two Nelsons I wanted all along, A couple of Bulleid 59' 3-sets and a LSWR brake - that'll do nicely Hornby. On that basis, the retool of the Rebuilt MN can wait.... And that's before I even get started on the non-Southern stuff...…. John 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Ian Hargrave Posted January 7, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 7, 2019 Lots of nice stuff in there, particularly the Large Prairie and GWR coaches. Doubt the people at Dapol are particularly happy today though! That does not take into account the probability that Hornby have had this under development a bit longer than Dapol.....before the now well publicised announcement of their version in fact.Despite some rather obvious clues,some of us have chosen to dismiss the possibility that this would happen.Similar situations have occurred before in fact.Hornby have kept a tight ship and now we’ll see who’s first past the post.

Robin Brasher Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 The Kernow brake van is a different diagram anyway - its a Road Van. These are the 59' Bulleid coaches - arnt Bachmann doing the 63' versions? I am aware of that but if you want a single LSWR brake van and a single rake of Southern Bulleid coaches some people are going to buy the ones that come out first. I did not predict that Hornby would be producing these and I am pleased that they are. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

meatloaf Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 The BR Blue mallard and scotsman look good as does the small rushton shunter. Dissapointed that there seems a distinct lack of TTS sound items this time round. The GWR HST train set should be a strong seller at around £100 after discounts.
