Hornby restaurant coaches?

I think, if I remember correctly, the magazines get their review samples, of whatever model it is, about six or seven weeks before it is due in the shops. So the Hornby Magazine, dated August would make it late August, early September. Certainly not too long now, and before Christmas! ;)

 

Regards,

Magazine plural or singular would that be ? IIRC they have to purchase their own for review,the exception being Hornby Magazine ?

Woooo! Do we know if the open third is still happening or are Hornby pretending it was never in their 2018 rannouncement? 

 

Which version are you looking for? There appears to be a BR version here if their stock level is accurate - http://fromemodelcentre.com/model-railways/Hornby/wagons-coaches/r4538-br-open-second-coach.html

The Southern one, it is available to preorder everywhere, my preorder with Rails is still open, but Hornby removed it from their website...?

Hattons are showing that both versions of the restaurant car are sold out to pre-orders. However, they're still available at all the other major retailers that I checked as I put my order in for a BR green one.

 

EDITED for clarity.

I apologise that the picture is not very clear (I'm working on a solution that doesn't include me using my phone for pictures...), but both variants have arrived into stock with us this morning so no doubt they will be appearing at others. :) Thanks to those that have ordered them from us by the way, I'm making phone calls today for balance payments and to confirm a day for receiving your parcel, with a view to all being shipped today.
