Garethp8873 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Dropped the question about the GWR Macaws on Hornby's Facebook page and got a reply this morning. Quote Sadly the new tooled Bogie Bolster Wagons have been postponed until a later year, at this stage we aren't able to confirm what year they will be released - sorry for any inconvenience caused and when we have some news on this we will announce this via our website and social media channels. 1 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Hornby seem to specialise in this, failing to grasp the potential of their models especially wagon chassis that have been reused! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
