Greenmodelmonkey Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Just hope the announcement is worth waiting for as I have been waiting too long for previous announcements and promises to become reality (don't hold out much hope that this will change for the better). 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
atom3624 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Was there ever any PLANNED announcement when the original statement was posted, or was it just with a view to making an announcement based on the marketing requests by enthusiastic modellers within this thread, up to the 'appointed hour'? Just a thought!! Al. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As all the liveries eventually seep out it could go on selling for years If it then DCKits/Legomanbiffo's new 66 project and EM2 Speakers will be a cracker in this shed.

You run into the same problem as an HST model though, who has the space? 5 73' coaches takes you into just over 8' plus the Class 68. You could perhaps shrink it to 3 coaches (2 + driving trailer) but that is still 5' plus the Class 68. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owd Bob Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 Anyone going to visit this show? I'm now wondering which day is the best to go see this 'BIG' reveal? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hroth Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 Can't remember if its been thought of earlier, but how about a GWR Streamlined Railcar, they've got the research for the OO model, perhaps Dapol want to get it out before the Heljan angles effort?

The announcement is being made at a modern image show. If they planned to release that, I expect they would leave it a further 3 weeks for Warley.

Pandora Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 If it comes down to a choice between modern diesels, then a 66 or 67 is the safe bet and not a 68, as in many liveries and national coverage of the classes, as opposed to the limited sphere of operation of the 68 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

atom3624 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 66's are everywhere, must admit, including a banker for Britannia / Iron Duke this last weekend!! 67's from what I'm seeing on 'media' seem no more frequent or popular than the much better looking, more interesting 68. Someone's termed the phrase 'modern Deltic', for the 68, which is perhaps early, but it does seem to have an extraordinary following. Al. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
