No Decorum Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Indeed, I do wonder about a matching single, if not Cornwall then another possibility is the lovely Midland Railway 673. Would go nicely with the forthcoming Bachmann Midland 1P tank... Cheers, Keith That would be too good to be true. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Decorum Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 One of my work colleagues said he would really like to own an example of Stephenson's Rocket modelled to current standards. A very good idea. Some of these ancient machines would make very attractive models. How to do it, though? Perhaps motorise a coach and use it to push an unmotored models?

RMweb Gold adb968008 Posted April 14, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 14, 2017 Last time I was wandering around the NRM I was taken with the idea that Locomotion might very well produce the LNER Dynamometer Car, something that would be really interesting and unusual but something that would probably sell quite well. Obviously Sandra's initial post put an end to such thoughts but I still think it would be something that would generate a lot of interest. Wishlisting - guilty as charged! all the best Godfrey Your wish has been granted, but by Rails, not Locomotion.. http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/121800-new-brand-new-model-rails-exclusive-lner-dynamometer-car/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

phil gollin Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 . Nice (although there should have been a 4-COR announced). Can you confirm for which dates your "City of Truro with red frames" and "city with black frames" are going to be accurate for, THANKS. . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll do it again!!Thanks Sandra,If you posted portrait pics on the phone it turns them sideways as it puts the long side across. Take the photo with the phone sideways (landscape) or crop them so they are wider than they are tall. Edited April 15, 2017 by PaulRhB Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, a model asked for every week the City of Truro with red frames. Also going to make the city with black frames 47799 is a good idea – the matched pair was called for to the extent that I bought two 47798s so that I could re-number and re-name one. I suppose it is sensible to match the finish of 47798 but what a shame that 47798 appeared before the advent of NRM gloss. If ever a locomotive called for a gloss finish, it’s a royal one.

RMweb Gold PaulRhB Posted April 15, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 15, 2017 (edited) Nice new liveries and all but weren't they supposed to be brand new models?New model? It's just semantics as many times it is used to mean new moulding or new livery. I'm afraid it's common usage everywhere to use it to describe minor alterations as to a complete retool whether it's models or cars etc Just think how glad your wallet is Edited April 15, 2017 by PaulRhB Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
