wombatofludham Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Thanks for all that info....any mention of the n gauge range? Not as much: 1:148 N Scale The following SKU’s are being added to the range.

I get regular emails on the N scale suggesting that we are not producing enough. The market is smaller than the other scales, so our decision making is driven by the commercial realities. Our investment in the range continues and by the year end we will have released over 275 items in this range." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wombatofludham Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 One interesting little gem Taff posted was that this month starts discussions on what will form the new releases for the 2017 model year, and that all this year's announcements are either en route in a container, in production or awaiting confirmation of licencing details before release. Pity Oxford can't take over Bachmann with that degree of project planning and delivery. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium acg5324 Posted May 31, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 31, 2015 Thank you for the n scale list I do wish they would do a larger range of cars such as an Austin / Morris 1100/1300, Any Cortina, Viva, Marina etc such as they do in the 1/76 range Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium PhilJ W Posted June 4, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 4, 2015 There are some obvious gaps in the range and what can be produced depends on licencing arrangements. This is why all of the current Land Rover/Jaguar are available but nothing from Rolls Royce or JCB. There is a demand for cars such as the SD1, its one of the most frequently asked for models on the 'wishlist' page on Facebook so we might be lucky. On the subject of licencing some makers are notorious for charging exorbitant fees for a licence to produce a model which means that companies such as Oxford cant justify the cost.
