RMweb Gold Taz Posted June 13, 2011 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 13, 2011 Surprised I haven't seen this anywhere else, but the latest Model Rail has an article on a new TMC commision. Bachmann has been comissioned to produce the MK1 4 wheel horsebox, with availabilty in 2012. Initially BR green and BR maroon versions will be available in both single and twin packs with weathered and unweathered finishes. Prices from £19.99. Very happy with this and my order will be going in soon This post has been promoted to an article 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

'CHARD Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Anyone else been to the TMC webpage, and found no mention of this yet? Stewart Could that be because FML are actually doing it instead? (On second thoughts, theirs/ his would be in Freightliner livery - doh!) Joking aside, a well rendered nagwagon will I'm sure prove a right winner, and no doubt inspire a thousand cameos! Well done TMC, good niche to spot in the market. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't tell 'em that Phil, I didn't realise I could justify getting one until your post. And this way it means I get to research the blighters that ended up with the Scottish Engineers and do a bit modelling like Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed-farms Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Anyone else been to the TMC webpage, and found no mention of this yet? Stewart My dad emailed them last night to fnd out when you could order online and they replied to say that they will only take order by pohne for this - call 01947 896040 to order. I am not sure if they will add them to their webiste or not but if you want one pick up the phone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Taz Posted June 14, 2011 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted June 14, 2011 However, their web ordering page doesn't seem to be secure (not using https) so I think I might have to order another way, just to be safe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmc Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 We are in the process of sorting out our new website but due to the high demand I've put them on the current website. There's a bit of info and some pics on there that I've thrown together. Phone orders welcome as always on 01947 894040. All the best! Chris Duncan (TMC) However, their web ordering page doesn't seem to be secure (not using https) so I think I might have to order another way, just to be safe.

RMweb Gold Taz Posted June 14, 2011 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted June 14, 2011 Thanks for the info.

tmc Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 As I always say you can't go wrong with the good old telephone. New website is being worked on everyday until it's up and running with all the products. The product transfer and image collection takes time. By the way if anyone has any decent pics of Horse Box Mk1's it would be greatly appreciated Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMJ Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Some of these were converted into steam heat vans. The K&WVR has recently scrapped the one that they had and sold the chassis on for a carriage restoration. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porcy Mane Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 By the way if anyone has any decent pics of Horse Box Mk1's it would be greatly appreciated If you don't have them already, would a set of BR official phots be beneficial? If the proposed model is to be of original condition my prints may be of use. As you probably know the preserved examples have the later drop door and end strengthener modifications. I also have a print of the inspection saloon version but I suspect you will not be offering that variation. Cheers, Porcy 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penlan Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 ...Anyway, a nice addition to the range of NPCCS (if I've got that right?) Sorry it's analogue, Bromsgrove Models haven't got to it yet. (DC viz DCC) There's just one 'C' in NPCS. I tempted to expand on that 'C', but time for bed said Zebedee. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattog Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Would it be unusual to see these together with the type of horsebox Hornby are releasing? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattog Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 No it wouldn't be unusual, horse boxes ran to move stock around on an adhoc basis so you can also add the Parkside GWR and LNER boxes to the mix as well. I'll be adding to the backorders too! Thanks for the info. And like would you usually see them coupled to the rear of a passenger express or branch service? Regardless, I'm thinking I'll put in an order today for the SR twin pack. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
