Others are pre-nationalisation shunters In terms of AC electrics, the 88 and 99 aren't being done yet (as far as is public knowledge). I know the 99 isn't in service yet but Revolution agreed to do the 93 a while ago. I think the 99 is one there will be a decent amount of enthusiasm for: 1. There are going to be quite a few of them 2. They can go anywhere 3. They are GBRF which means from day one it's unlikely they'll all be the same colours! I'd love an 88 too TBH. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Price isn’t everything, it all depends on sales volumes. You can make a great margin on an item, but only sell one and you are stuffed.

Others are pre-nationalisation shunters. Steam is a crowded market with partisan regional buyers, coaches are nearly full bar Mk2C or better Mk3s. DMUs are well covered but with many gaps in the XC/IC DMU range There's still no track plant, very few EMUs so a lot of opportunity there. Wagons are lacking in the modern end. Car transporters? I would repectfully disagree, There are quite a number of diesel and steam shunting classes till to do, including some which carried BR logos and numbers. Andrew Barclay, North British and Bagnall. examples for a start but there are also many "main line steam classes. Swathes of LNWR and Midland classes which just survived into BR days. George 5th, Precursor, 19inch goods, Claughton, Experiment, 2-4-2 radials, 0-8-2 and 0-8-4 tanks, Specials DXs etc etc etc Aswell as the rather beautiful LNWR steam railmotors. A whole host of Midland locos such as the "Flatiron" and the versions of 2F 0-6-0 etc etc. The nthere are such beauties as the L&Y 4-6-0s and the LMS 0-8-0s And that is from the region I know about - the GWR Aberdare is a WR example and I won;t bore you with diesels and electrics.

I have seen a photo of an "Aberdare" on it's way to Barmouth Junction from Ruabon and would love to know whether it went over the bridge and into Barmouth. The "Aberdare" class would be a very nice loco, and I believe would sell well in it's various liveries. It would be BR for me but I am sure the majority sales would be in GWR livery. Yes they did. We have a photo of one in the Barmouth Excursion platform with a Dean tender in the early 30s amongst the "Dolgellau" layout supporting exhibition material. I'm sure I read somewhere that they only got to Barmouth after some rebuilding work on the route. We have a lovely kit built example which was donated to us but will need converting to DCC before it can make an appearance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
