Steamport Southport Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 53 minutes ago, Legend said: Hornby are traditionally big engine and upmarket coaches , so are there any big engines left? They are already doing Turbomotive , W1 in any form imaginable .....maybe Great Bear , but I cant see it , but then I don't see a huge demand for the Turbomotive either. I don't understand why there is often quotes about there being no demand or need for Turbomotive. People do realise it was a front line express passenger engine running on the WCML for about about 15 years? It wasn't treated as an oddity, just a normal engine. It lasted longer than many diesel classes and most of the BR Standards. Jason 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteamingWales Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 My only real with for 2023 is for the Standard 2MT to finally be released In terms of new stuff: GWR 2251 (though I think this is Bachmann territory) GWR Herring ballast wagons GWR Loco Coal wagons That's about all I am in the market for, or at least what I think Hornby would maybe produce. I'm not after big locos, crack express classes or one offs, just run of the mill stuff that Hornby don't really like much. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
frobisher Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 Things I wouldn't be surprised about; New 31, 37, 47, 66 and/or 73 Railroad+ models based of the work being done for TT. New 57XX, Austerity again Railroad+ for the same reasons. A messed up MK3 sleeper tooling a la Dapol. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could a K4 be on the cards with a K4 61994 and A4 60009 retirement pack given both are now withdrawn... Now I could see that selling to steam and modern era modellers given their length of service on the mainline in preservation.

TT will start to run a portfolio that is asymmetric. (On a personal note, I interpret that as "Multiple units are easier to market at smaller scales... so we'll do more"... but thats wild speculation.)

You know I thought that when I saw it at the time - but hadn't bothered to check. Rather than a K2, I would imagine a Gresley K4 is more likely with a famous preserved example. I'd be surprised to see the Castle or King as these tools are both less than 15 years old and there is not much wrong with either. I'd go for an 8F or Merchant Navy before either of these, or possibly a new GWR Hall (given the Railroad P2 has been replaced by a main range item, there must be a case for a hall). 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slightly offtopic, but I badgered (I think it was Ben?) from revolution trains at Ally Pally earlier this year. Wanted to see if I could pull off an inception about getting the N scale 313 into OO scale. The conversation was along the lines off "we're going to wait 6-12 months... but we have good word another manufacturer might be doing this". 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
