RMweb Premium it's-er Posted September 27, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted September 27, 2015 I think, OO gaugeJaf, that the 2 October announcement covers their vehicle catalogue - Oxford Rail seems to be treated separately. Anyway, wouldn't you imagine that if they have any new rail products, the time to annoumce them will be at Warley, which is not now far away (28 and 29 November)?

wombatofludham Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Right, for those of you who have a wasp up your gusset about Facebook. Taff is announcing the new toolings and models to be launched next year live on Facebook now. In N gauge he's announced: "The following SKU’s are being added to the range. 1:148 Oxford Automobile NAT004 Austin Low Loader Taxi Burgundy Q1/2016 1:148 Oxford Commercials NBSA003 Motorbike and Sidecar Royal Mail Q1/2016 NCA003 Bedford CA Ice Cream Lyons Maid Q1/2016 NCV003 Caravan Cream and Brown Q1/2016 NDEF009 Land Rover Defender LWB Hard Top AA Q1/2016 1:148 Oxford Fire NSFE003 Scania Pump Ladder Grampian F & R Q2/2016 NTIL005 Austin Tilly London Fire Brigade Q2/2016 1:148 Oxford Gift NSET003 5 Piece N Gauge Set Southdown Q2/2016 1:148 Oxford Haulage NAEC004 AEC Matador London Brick Company Q1/2016 NMB001 Mercedes Actros Curtainside Eddie Stobart Q2/2016 1:148 Oxford Military NAEC009 AEC Matador Royal Artillery Malta Q4/2016 NAEC010 AEC Matador Royal Navy Q1/2016 NBSA005 Motorcycle and Sidecar 34th Armoured Brigade Q1/2016 1:148 Oxford Omnibus NCOM003 Commer Commando BEA Q1/2016 NLRT002 Leyland Royal Tiger Southdown Q1/2016 NNR001 New Routemaster London General Q2/2016 NPE009 Plaxton Elite East Yorkshire Coaches Q1/2016 NPP004 Plaxton Panorama 1 Midland Red Q1/2016 NUT005 Guy Arab Utility Wolverhampton Q1/2016 Mmm, N Gauge Midland Red Panorama...used to go to school on them.

wombatofludham Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 He also added "The information on this release (Q3/2015 October-January 2016) will be made available to the trade later this weekend, so this is an advanced preview of the liveries and tooling planned. Plus a chance to get updated on the information for unreleased products that have already been announced. Every item on this listing has already been tooled and we have either pre-production shots, or final production shots. The entire programme for 2016 is well advanced in tooling, much of which is not listed here. I also advise that the entire programme for 2017 was signed off in July and designing/planning has already commenced. The catalogues for this Q3 release will release in a few weeks’ time." So these items should come to market as per the dates quoted. Still waiting for 1:76 announcements... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wombatofludham Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 For those who want to have a nice 1930s aerodrome to sit alongside all those Hornby kettles...

The Oxford DH Rapide would be bob-on for that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wombatofludham Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 That appears to be it for now. Some interesting stuff there, especially the 80s cars which will be most useful.
