shunny Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 I expect more Mk1 coaches in later or preserved liveries as they have removed end steps from West coast versions and unlikely to be a run of 1 livery for the tooling amendments. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suzy Sulzer Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 hopefully some more oo 47s. maybe a retool of Mk 1s following on from retools of Thompsons etc. Bauxite Toad Thats my wish 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great Waterton Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 I don't think there'll be any more 158s this time but a Northern Spirit one would be nice. Likewise I think this is a long shot but Regional Railways 101 and 117 too. Selfishly speaking, some bog standard workhorse Mk1s in Blue & Grey would be very welcome, plus some everyday Railfreight wagons too. 2 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Popular Post The Stationmaster Posted January 26 RMweb Gold Popular Post Share Posted January 26 I wonder if something that will interest me might be emerging under the EFE label? (Assuming that I could actually see it on the 7th as I was yesterday able to get booked in for a cataract operation on the previous day.) 21 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

meatloaf Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Hopefully a flood of MK1s in 00 similar to what they did recently in N Having trouble finding anything ( new ) thats not a buffet coach in pretty much any livery. Another green 47 would be nice as would another green 20 with discs. 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know this is way off topic but I strongly recommend this operation. I have had mine done and it gave me the best vision since my childhood. In an effort to bring us back on topic, your colour vision may improve so I hope whatever is announced on 7th will have the livery details correct! 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wombatofludham Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Take cover, wishlist froth incoming. Personally I would be very happy just with a new batch of FFA liner intermediates and blue grey Mk2fs, but having given up on an RTR version ever coming to pass and having got a Class 310 built for me by Britannia Pacific models, I would be less than surprised if the finest AC electric multiple unit gets announced by Bachmann, although it is possibly not the point in the calendar for a major new tooling announcement. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My father had both eyes done (they do the worse one first, recovery would be much more difficult if they did them together). Beforehand I had been beginning to get concerned as to whether he should still be driving. But it not only improved his visual acuity - obviously important to modellers - but he said that colours seemed far brighter afterwards. I rather think I will need this operation before very long too. 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s time that yawning gap started to close and which manufacturer better than Bachmann? After all, it was Bachmann which introduced the servo-powered panto. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
