Is there an updated ETA on the manor shipment? I’m hoping its the 8F’s bigger sister myself. But as rehashes are vogue, the popularity contest would surely say a rebuilt Bulleid ?

Good way to spend Coronation Day,if unusual.Tempting but involves a drive.My second “crowning “ .Don’t know quite what to make of this occasion tbh. Appropriate venue for the new Manor however.The SVR resident was in fine fettle at the Steam Gala a few weeks ago. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fingers crossed ! Ah! Bill, are we thinking a new GWR Saint class 4-6-0, or a new Pannier tank 0-6-0PT In either case, I am sure Accurascale will do a great job of them….

What do you say @Accurascale Fran Hmm, a difficult choice Neal, although I suspect Panniers may sell better, as a fair number of modellers would buy two. Well why wouldn't they? We really do need a new Saint as well of course. @Accurascale Fran which would you consider might make it to market first Fran ?

County of Yorkshire Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 If a loco, my guess is either a pannier, 8f, or WD 2-10-0. That said, the SVR is home to a stack of Collett Sunshine coaches, so you know… 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black 5 Bear Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 Odds on a Southern or LMS loco for the next announcement as we've already had a Manor and Backjumper announced from Accurascale. A Stanier 8F or a Airsmooth Bulleid West Country/Battle of Britain would do very nicely! 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Harlequin Posted May 4, 2023 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 4, 2023 The quote from the SVR website is: Quote Accurascale will be in attendance, showcasing their newly-released 00 Gauge Manor models PLUS ,samples of their forthcoming Class 50s will be available for viewing, as well as information on their next steam locomotive project It was obviously written some time ago when the expectation was that the Manors would be on sale by May and so the reference to the next steam loco must mean what we now know is to be the Buckjumper. There is no mention of new announcements. 5 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sc2016 Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 If it is a whole New Announcement it could be a new Pannier as i have noticed on the SVR website that GWR Pannier 7714 is rostered to run on Saturday. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Hal Nail Posted May 5, 2023 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 5, 2023 Given we already have 3 wishlist threads just for this manufacturer, can we keep this one to the manors? 2 4 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't be complaing about a new one, though I have just been working on an older one so would be kind of funny. Manors do be looking the part, just need a wartime black version, also something that's been bugging me about the samples, the shiny axles are showing through on the front set of wheels and I'm wondering if this has been corrected for the production models?

RMweb Gold The Stationmaster Posted May 5, 2023 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 5, 2023 14 hours ago, Captain Kernow said: Pannier please! A pannier would be a super option for Accurascale because with the careful tooling arrangements they are obviously capable of it's a midel that would keep on giving for years with several relatively straightforward variants - 57XX and 8750 as a starting point then either of those with or without a top feed then add the non-vacuum fitted varieties of both, plus those with snap head rivetted side tanks, and throw in various minor changes as well, and finally the livery variations plus the mucky ones carrying 'GWR' on the side tanks very late in ther BR lives. They could - if tooled cleverly and to a really high standard plus, obviously, top notch mechanicals and easy EM conversion - carry on for years without repeating the same detail mix. And could they have the ultimate bit of Westernry refinement with an open firbox door and a choice of dished or high tup fires (plastic insert?). Mind you even I would buy a 'Saint' and it could - again if cleverly tooled - have several potential detail variants plus being 'different' fromor other long lasting Western 4-6-0s. Great opportunity, and profitable, in my view but it would not have the total saless potential of the pannier. 6 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
