steveb860 Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 (edited) I like the HST Enparts BG. (At least I think thats what it is,my eyesight isn't as good as it once was) The others are useful additions too and will prove popular Edited September 2, 2012 by steveb860 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Oldddudders Posted September 2, 2012 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 2, 2012 Wonderfully lateral-thinking stuff which should sell by the bucketload to modellers of that era. We do live in good times. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold The Stationmaster Posted September 2, 2012 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 2, 2012 Probably easier for Graham to list them separately but they will all be in the 'Bachmann' section of 'Products and Trade' so shouldn't be too difficult to find I would have thought? Are you having picture problems too - others seem to be ok and I'm having no trouble with the pics onSafari (the browser that is. I'm not on safari although I am shortly going on a voyage).

PrestburyJack Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Just popped home to look at these - pictures not working where I am now but I can see them at home - excellent!! Just need to find some photos of prototype trains to see what goes with what. I wonder what 'Modelzone' will make of this, bearing in mind their history of RTC and Engineers yellow departmental vehicles - is Bachmann doing these themselves a threat to them, or will it complement them?

FelixM Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Olive green was introduced in 1967 – correct me if I am wrong. So for the steam era 50s/60s modeller there are just two items left, pity. Felix Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xerces Fobe2 Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 I remember a black liveried ex LMS Departmental coach in the sidings next to Benskins Brewery at Watford High Street in the early 1960's - guess which layout is going to have at least a couple of these!

The Black Hat Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Wonderfully lateral-thinking stuff which should sell by the bucketload to modellers of that era. We do live in good times. Not just lateral - but logical and some might say insprired thinking from those at Barwell. Given how well the current set up with Network Rail stuff is going for the current scene, modelling Departmental stock from this period would be a boon for Bachmann as everyone will want that train for the novelty value of running something different. Notice how some of it is for electrification work to be done. That will surely inspire modellers to string up the wires for that class 85 in early blue, for this train to then be seen along side on test. When seen in that light, the possibilities of counter sales and some great modelling make such choices sheer brilliance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave777 Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 (edited) Can't see the pics on two different laptops on two different connections. Both running IE8 though, so maybe that's the problem. Certainly sounds good news though Edited September 3, 2012 by Dave777 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium John M Upton Posted September 3, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted September 3, 2012 Oooh, just noticed that Weltrol belongs to Brighton, that is a must purchase assuming that the Ebay Carpetbaggers who are probably stampeding to their retailers to order a hundred of each model even as I type this don't clean out the stocks first.
