grahame Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 i was reading through Dapol's n gauge news and i was supprised to find that they will be producing an n gauge class 92 It's great news, although I already have a couple of CJM 92s. However, it should make N gauge more attractive to more modellers and hopefully encourage some more third rail products like the rail and supports (as per the OO Peco version) and third rail EMUs. G.

RMweb Gold Adam1701D Posted October 23, 2009 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 23, 2009 The 92 is a favourite of mine, so it will be great to be able to get one that's not quite so marriage-destroyingly priced The latest pics of the 86 taken at the Open Day looked most promising and mode well for other 'leccies. Now how about a decent AC EMU to keep it company...(ducks for cover)... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahame Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Now how about a decent AC EMU to keep it company... So how about a nice dual voltage unit with both pants and shoes, like a Thameslink or Electrostar set? Double the marketing opportunity. Double the sales 'potential' - geddit? G.

Karhedron Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 So how about a nice dual voltage unit with both pants and shoes, like a Thameslink or Electrostar set? Double the marketing opportunity. Double the sales 'potential' - geddit? I agree the Thameslink units in particular have wandered quite widely over the years and worn a great many liveries. Personally I like the silver version of the NSE livery as applied to the 319/1s when they were delivered. Ahhh, happy memories. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucazone Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 A definate welcome from me. While Ive always looked at the CJM range a an ultimate aspiration, practically they are well beyond my budget. Will be looking forward to several EPS types from Dapol myself. I guess this also firms up Dapols commitment to its OHE system. Regards Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium njee20 Posted October 14, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 14, 2012 First up apologies for the thread resurrection...! Has anything happened on this? Having trawled the web I can't really find any references, I know the Pendolino is cancelled 'on the back burner', but I've never seen anything to say the 92 has been formally shelved. I'm hoping not, but suspect I'm in for disappointment! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Kris Posted October 14, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 14, 2012 I believe that Dapol Dave has said that the 92 is also on the back burner if I remember correctly this is down to the poor sales of electric locos. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Multiple identity account 2 Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 I'll have to second Kris on this. When I emailed Dapol Dave about a suggestion to produce a Class 90 or an 00 scale Cl. 86 he said that the electrics don't sell well. So I guess the 92 project is scrapped.

RMweb Premium njee20 Posted October 15, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 15, 2012 Sure it is, but the last I'd read, and I thought it was from Dave, was that they were going to see how the 92 sold before potentially reviving the Pendolino. Shame if they're not even going that far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DapolDave Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Sorry guys, but let's not have a blanket belief in something that's not been said. I reitterate......We have never said that the 92 is cancelled! I hope that clarifies things. cheers Dave Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium njee20 Posted October 15, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 15, 2012 Thank you Dave, if I may push you does that mean its still very much 'on', or is it another back burner project at the moment? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul tpxguard Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 I almost ordered a cjm and dapols anouncement save my mariage lol i cant wait for Dapol to do it i can see now wagner gliding along with the doncaster entiprise with the ride of the valkyries playing on on my ipod Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Revolution Mike Posted October 15, 2012 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 15, 2012 Excellent, I hope Dave's hint means that the 92 will appear at some point (soon). One of the most versatile locos and given that the 67 sold well the 92 could be similarly successful. Cheers, MIke Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmthtrains - David Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 I would be surprised if we see this model anytime soon (several years at least). If I recal it was announced as part of the now notorious magnificent seven - which to me seemed their then md's approach of announcing everything simply to but Bachmann off producing them.... Thankfully Dapols more grown up approach to the market now means this doesn't happen anymore, and I would wager everyone there would rather quietly forget this and the 390 were ever announced. Us modellers have long and unforgiving memories David Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium njee20 Posted October 15, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 15, 2012 That's rather my thoughts too David - it's exclusion from the 12/13 catalogue supports this, and Dave's comment does a good job of neither confirming nor denying it! Sure it'll be worth the wait if it does appear! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Multiple identity account 2 Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Well it's good to know that the Class 92 isn't scrapped by Dapol. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
