Roy P Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 "February TrainMail - Model & Hobby show, Doncaster Enterprise and a cryptic clue" Says the Email from Bachmann. "......we will also reveal the identity of our next limited edition model, a 00 locomotive which must remain a secret for the time being, however any grey areas will be resolved by the time the next magazine appears on your doormat."

reevesthecat Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Might be easy for you I don't have a clue! Are you thinking steam or D&E? Mark Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osimabu Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Has anyone else struggled to register for tickets for the day on the link provided from the Collectors' Club page? I can get to the point of entering my name and title (ie 'Mr') and then there's nowhere to go. As to the new model, it's going to be an M&GN Class C 4-4-0 in original condition, so that modellers of the MR will have an 1808 Class to use, too. And then he woke up!

RMweb Gold tetsudofan Posted February 19, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 19, 2013 Had the same problem Osimabu. Will contact the Collectors Club later this morning if it still does not work. Keith Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
reevesthecat Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 The clue to the model is grey areas so it could be a steam loco in primer or blue/grey Pullman! They used to alternate between steam and D&E so should be steam this time. Mark Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Osimabu Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Thanks very much Keith. I've now received the ticket. I just hope they don't mind a b/w copy though, as I don't have a colour printer at present. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold gwrrob Posted February 19, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 19, 2013 Just to mention that Antics model shop has moved from around the corner from the Transport museum venue.Its now in Shelton Square about a 5-10 minute walk from there.

two tone green Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Royal Navy grey perhaps? A W.....p fill in the dots for an answer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy P Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Something grey? http://www.semgonline.com/steam/cclass_01.html Shows what I was thinking of. I don't honestly know if this was grey or black but Bachmann did produce their N class in grey as part of a ltd.ed. boxed pair a few years ago. This assumes of course that "grey" was the cryptic clue. We'll find out soon enough but a bit of harmless fun (and maybe a suggestion or two for the Bachmann CC) RP Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy P Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Thinks! "....any grey areas will be resolved...." So maybe something that was grey and now isn't? RP Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul.Uni Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 According to http://www.dieseltraction.org.uk/html/fleet.htm Class 20 no. 20227, which is/was in Railfreight Grey, is having a repaint this month. I'm probably adding 2 and 2 together and making 5. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold The Stationmaster Posted February 19, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 19, 2013 Ooh what a teaser - but if it is going to be steam this year as is suggested above then I reckon the answer could be plain to see. (584?) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't wish to perpetuate any silly rumours but this http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/68452-possible-new-lt-model-from-Bachmann/ suggests that the loco you mention may be coming from somewhere other than the Bachmann CC. In which case how many other shades of grey are there? RP Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
reevesthecat Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 I've had a look at the models due on the Bachmann site and the classes 40, 70 and modified Hall are all due around now so maybe one of these will be the collectors club model.

reevesthecat Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Could be one of the grey class 66 from Europe for GBRF. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium John M Upton Posted February 24, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 24, 2013 They are going to be repainted before entering service so I doubt it somehow. What about the Turkish 70 70099? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
