AlfaZagato Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Unrebuilt Spamcan in 00. From what I understand, no-one has ever done one RTR, and, unlike everything else I've suggested, it is a well-known, important, and significant class in the history of mainline English rail.

Hornby do an unrebuilt WC in OO, and are doing an unrebuilt MN, which is yet to be released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fratton71D Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 L1 and Q - yes please. And add a U class. I'm sure any one of these three would sell well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9402 Fredrick Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 I could really go for an MR 0-4-4T, some push-pull stock, NLR 0-6-0T, and, some indistrial 0-4-0ST & 0-4-0T locomotives. I could really use those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opelsi Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 L1 would be bound to be a winner. Something Caledonian in that lovely eye catching livery. 43xx - GWR (Bachmann split chassis well passed it's day) RTR Bullion Van Dynamometer - LNER RTR Dancehall Brake Van - SECR How about that for a diverse set of suggestions - any takers?

Peter Bedding Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 I too have a kite to fly, and I should like an opportunity to play. I make no pretence that my wishes have a commercial justification, but then a few years back no one could have proposed a BWT, or an Adams 415, or 56ft Gate Stock, or a 58ft Two-set. So for my kite I choose another Drummond 4-4-0, (the S 15 lights my fire), an Adams Jubilee 0-4-2 and/or another 4-4-0, and for rolling stock a cross-country non-corridor Lav 3 set. Impossible? Well maybe, but they have all scored well in the annual wishlist poll, and the success rate for this poll is rather good. PB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Storey Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 We really need some coaches to go with the Kernow 02 IOW versions - almost nothing on the market, even in kit form, that is exactly right (apart from some very early vehicles which would not do for the BR versions). Several LBSCR and SER/LCDR kits could be used but would need a lot of cutting and shutting to get the lengths right, something I would hesitate to do with a £60 kit. The LSWR/SR RTR coaches are a reasonable substitute but still not right. I wonder if this is commercially a goer, but why produce the IOW versions commercially, with nothing for them to realistically pull? Meanwhile, modeller's licence will have to prevail.

Ben04uk Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 A 6-wheel milk tanker in St Ivel livery would be great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Tim Dubya Posted July 29, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 29, 2015 ... a cross-country non-corridor Lav 3 set. Seconded! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold farren Posted July 29, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted July 29, 2015 One locomotive I've always liked though I don't have any idea how well it would sell is the SR T14 paddle box. Have I mentioned a LMS 0-4-4t by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les1952 Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 I don't recall anyone mentioning an LMS 0-4-4T. Midland and Caley ones, perhaps. Now, NER 0-4-4 tanks are a different matter- who would be able to swear that the dimensions of a BTP class were wrong? Almost no two of them were identical... Just a thought.

Pretty sure if you look on Roxey Mouldings site you will find a couple of coach kits that you can build for the IOW.. If brass scares you SmallBrook Studio do a few and some wagons in resin.

rembrow Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Now that Dave has advised he is to produce (a) wagon(s), my wagon wish would be a BR anhydrite hopper as used on the S&C in single use consists. These, with the ICI limestone hoppers are synonymous with 1950s and 60s long freight hopper movements over the Midland, in rugged and beautiful parts of the Peak District and Cumbria. The anhydrite hoppers give the opportunity for various levels of weathering, similar to the proposed Oxford/Hattons ICI hoppers, and multi packs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Gordieb01 Posted August 19, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 19, 2015 LBSCR K class 2-6-0 lovely locos tragically withdrawn as a class in 1962. Long lived , not too big and can be done in four liveries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gardenwall Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 LBSCR K class 2-6-0 lovely locos tragically withdrawn as a class in 1962. Long lived , not too big and can be done in four liveries. Five at least surely, LBSCR umber, SR olive, Wartime black, BR black early crest, BR black late crest. and that's not counting BR lettering variations or WWI economies, which may or may not have occurred.

Mike Storey Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Dave - did the possibility of Kernow and Bachmann producing a 2 HAP make any progress please? I only ask because it has come up again on another thread (Thumper). If it is commercially confidential, fair enough. Thanks Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold A Murphy Posted August 23, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 23, 2015 Anybody who produced a decent quality Saint or 43xx would be on to a winner I reckon..... 4mm and 2. Regards, Alastair M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Gary H Posted August 24, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 24, 2015 A 00 Class 50 with the right 'face' would do for me! No body's managed that one yet in any scale! (abit like the 33). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Mike Hi mate, no info on this, but in all honesty it wouldnt come about because of me or DJM involvement, so it's really none of my business. Try Kernow direct? sorry cheers Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

south_tyne Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Not to sound too much like a stuck record but I cannot understand why no manufacturer has gone for a Wisbech & Upwell Y6 or J70 tram. I am sure they would sell well - yes they were geographically confined and a bit (a lot!) of a niche BUT lots of enthusiasts have a soft spot for the W&U and I think would get one just because they like them. Beattie Well Tanks, Adams Radials etc have the same kind of niche markets but have/are arriving on the market. There is also the Thomas connection which could be exploited in a commercial sense... surely a winner! Anyway, end of the naive comments and I'll keep dreaming!! Keep up the good work Dave!
