I got the jist of what he was on about... and am more than happy to take it as such. Its a hobby for inclusion, even if you type or talk propper...

MGR Hooper! Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 YES YES YES I WANT Hornby TO DO ANOTHER CLASS 60 metal and class 08 Railfreight livery 08938 with new retool There is absolutely no need to retool either the Class 60 or the Class 08... Cheers! PS: Yes I am sure that many would like a Class 60 in the Railfreight Metals livery. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob D2 Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 I don't think he wants a retool , I think he wants the modern models in these colours. The Hornby 60 remains the waitrose of diesel models. Let's hope Hornby keeps going to make some more . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eric709 Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 easy enough to rebadge the current coal liveried loco's Like others most surprised that neither Metals or Construction haven't appeared yet, especially given the numbers of the class that carried it against only 4 Loadhaul and 3 Mainline which have been released Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCClark Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 The quality and availability of decals for re-badging and re-numbering the class 60s is really good these days and there are etched plates available for just about if not all the names of the locos. Not difficult to do and really worth having a go to make that individual locomotive you desire. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickL2008 Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 Re-liverying Hornbys 60 is pretty easy enough, I turned my 60066 into 60032 in Transrail, just needs a bit of T-cut and job done NL Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Br60066 Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 (edited) I'd love to see a Hornby class 60 in colas rail colours as well. Id also like to see another DBS one but in plain DBS red rather than 60007's switch on to safety branding Edited July 27, 2016 by Br60066 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickL2008 Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Yes its a shame have to resort to spraying that particular livery, although it saves time waiting for Hornby to produce it, it can run up the costs, with paint and transfers, but if you can find a decent priced Hornby 60 these days, it still works out cheaper NL Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveb860 Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 Nice. How did you fare removing the branding ? I went through the grey a bit when i tried to remove mainline decals from one I used Humbrol thinners. Puddled it on the branding to be removed, let it soak, and removed with a cotton bud. Did not affect the underlying paint work other than gave it a sheen, which disappears under a varnish spray. Much safer than T-Cut IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Radford Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 Yes, I found it useful. Ordered 60 100 at 1323 yesterday, delivered by RM at 0825 today usual £4 postage (not specific next day). Thanks Hattons and RM!! Runs great - yes, run in already. Included instructions state for Class 60 but all illustrations are for a Class 31. Had to go to Lendons web site to find out how to attach "snow" plough.

Hi, just a quick question for you: I've just received the same model (always from Hattons), can you confirm that in the detailing kit you had only 2 ploughs with the hole in the middle? I want to do a full realistic end but I have only them, not the complete ones... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve had delivered 60062 and 60021 (both from Hattons) and both loco detail packs contain 2 “ploughs” that have the cut out for the coupling. There is NO full plough in either of them... Though 60062 ‘Stainless Pioneer’ came with etched nameplates - which I thought was a nice touch by Hornby About time named models came as standard with etched plates!

I also had the same problem with class 31 diagrams on the instructions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
