They run very well and, bar one of the OO Junior locos, is the first 0-4-0 from Barwell. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recognise Peter Marriot’s quarry from Bachmann Times and it’s a super little layout. If ever a loco needed a driver figure, it’s the open cab ones. At a guess, I’d say these were single manned.

Class 158 productions Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Nice to see the class 40 with the light fitting? Is this a simple mod or will we see a re tooled model at some point? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattingleycustom Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 Excellent Andy, a candid interview with the boys from Barwell showing that Bachmann are alive and well and very much on the ball. The Class 47 was a revelation earlier this month, the Class 40 and the G5 look excellent as well. The Bulleid coaches look to be fine models and as an SR modeller I look forward to their release. I pray that among their 'in the background' projects are the SR U Class moguls, this class regularly appeared in the most-wanted lists for years but nothing has yet appeared. With a range of tooling options the entire range of Maunsell moguls would be possible, all 172 of them. Fingers crossed. Glenn 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably next week for that as there's a couple of technical issues. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
