D605Eagle Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 I recon Heljan might well be tempted to do a 10800 at somepoint, unless some shop comissions one first. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baby Deltic Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 I would imagine Heljan would be more tempted by DMU's than loco's after the class 16. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baby Deltic Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Unless they do electrics and electro-dielsels? I think DMU's would be far more lucrative, especially if they did all the pressed steel designs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D605Eagle Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 I think DMU's would be far more lucrative, especially if they did all the pressed steel designs. Possiably, but they have shied away from passenger stock sofar, and that makes me think they might exhaust locomotive possiabilities first. Time will tell!

RMweb Premium MJI Posted February 24, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 24, 2012 There is something about the early diesels that makes me want them. Recently obtained a 17 (D8568), trying to get a cheap 15 (D8233), I really want a 16 even though it is not suitable, a 22 and 29 (would be D6122), and NBL Warship (D601). And I model early 80s!!!!

Allegheny1600 Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Hi there, If you want a brand new class 15, Kernow model shop has been trying to get rid of their last ones at £69.99 each! I think that's pretty good! Cheers, John E. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D6122 was a class 21, not a 29.........maybe!!!!! Theres alot of speculation that D6121 (a class 29) swapped identities with D6122 before or during its rebuild into a class 29. Why? think that will ever remain a mystery. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheEngineShed Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 But did D8408 just have its end doors changed for ones off a 16 with Full Yellow Ends? I believe that is the theory but I haven't seen any photos of a FY with green doors... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewishambill Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 But did D8408 just have its end doors changed for ones off a 16 with Full Yellow Ends? If so where is it's own small yellow panel that it would already have?. Also is the strip between the two doors part of the body/nose? Surely it would be green with two seperate yellow doors?

Also is the strip between the two doors part of the body/nose? Surely it would be green with two seperate yellow doors? Good point, interestingly there is another picture of D8408 further up that thread with the normal small yellow end at the long nosed end.The plot thickens?

I've since just found a shot of non cab end of D8408 with HHY, dated April 1967. And I bothered to take a closer look at the shot with the yellow doors, it looks like earlier than the FY era. Probably not off a FY locomotive... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
