JZ Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 My favourite DMU is the 123. As a kid living in Bradford-on-Avon, I remember seeing these when they were introduced on the Cardiff-Pompeys. I'd take one of each formation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
charliepetty Posted December 25, 2014 Author Share Posted December 25, 2014 We also sent out cards with 142's, 175's, 180's & 185's. Lets do the lot! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest CPRAIL3000 Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 Hope the 156 is on the cards. An up to date version is really required and I might even get back into British modelling. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Robin Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 I'd be in for a few ATW 175's. There's a good number of these go past my door. Robin Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Storey Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Why not produce a run of 2HAPs, using the detail you already have from your DC kit, and use the Replica Railways motorised chassis. I have bought a few of those combinations but have failed miserably to replicate the blue/grey livery (hence I have only one running just in all-blue). Bachmann could easily do them, but don't seem to be about to. They also would not do the kind of detailed version you would do, which I would pay good money for!

Mike Storey Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 A Captain Hastings unit! Now that would be on my raid-the-piggy-bank list!! (But in blue/grey though - sorry. Green is nice but before my modelling period). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
norfolkchinaclay Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 I've received an e-Christmas card from Charlie and Arran (after all, it does save on postage....) and it depicts a Class 156. A sign of things to come? Cheers, Mick In East Midlands Trains Livery, please! (with Lincoln/Leicester or Nottingham/Matlock destination blinds..)

delticfan Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 A Class 124 Transpennine would be very welcome, plenty of livery variations to play wit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
charliepetty Posted January 13, 2015 Author Share Posted January 13, 2015 The best style of train to sell at a reasonable price is 1 or 2 cars, the Class 124 is a 6 Car with I think 6 different coaches, so a selling price of approx. £400.00 I think 'Might' put people off, a minimum of 2000 sales of this six car train and as many different liveries as possible. As far as I know a 124 has only two basic liveries. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhys Underwood Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 I'd like to see a 175. Although I would like them in unbraned FNW this way they can have a wider operational area. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WCML100 Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 I'd like to see a 175. Although I would like them in unbraned FNW this way they can have a wider operational area. This is actually a very good idea, RealTrack could then add in decals / transfer pack to suit the specific era / area wanted to model e.g: First North Western Logos, or Northern Rail Logos or just leave blank for running on ATW routes...

As far as I know a 124 has only two basic liveries. Hence the 143/144, So, errrrrr, would it be reasonable to say that something like, errrrrrrrrr, a 142 would be econimically viable? Especially so if you were to, errrrr I dunno, maybe produce it in conjunction with someone like, erm, Rapido........... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lyneux Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 I'm still waiting for a 143 in Provincial or RR. Come on, hurry up Charlie old boy! A 119 after that would be lovely please (or have I already said that?). Wagons also welcome... anything Mendips aggregate related would be fine. How about the humble PGA in all it's varieties? Keep you busy for years that would. Guy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

James37501 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Would be great to see a First Transpennine 185 in model. For a unit which works a good few routes in the North, and is 51 strong I'm surprised Bachmann haven't taken it up yet, though I don't know what demand would be like!

45661 Vernon Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 What about one of the Yorkshire Engine co industrial diesel shunters. Keeping your Yorkshire theme of locos after the northern 143. I think there are plenty of layouts that would suit one of these small locos & they would suit many different era layouts. Although I'm probably dreaming I would really like the rtr company's dipping into the pre grouping era. I think a selection of rtr Midland or lnwr items would be interesting. I often wonder how many would model pre grouping but are put of by lack of skill kit building / time & money for them. Cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack374 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Would be great to see a First Transpennine 185 in model. I agree...they've been about for a good while, and many people could benefit from them on their layouts. Also how about single bogie wagon/coach releases? Coaches are doing well atm, and a bogie wagon would test the market for your shelved cement wagon project. Just a couple of thoughts! Jack. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
