Hallo, Still think MK2B/Cs in N are long overdue - there are the locos to pull them available - 4 Body shells and 8 innards needed, maybe someone could state how many roofs and underframes required? Please with a close coupling mechanism as stable as the Farish version not as sloppy as the Dapol version. es grüßt PC

Hallo, Theoretically yes, the body will obviously have the same window pattern. however you will find that some livery variations will have 125 after the words Inter City which are of course referring to the HST. ...and to DapolDave, please forgive me if I am being too naive. An accurate production description avoids confusion. The description of the original 6 versions announced were for me very clear. Why did you not keep this format (coach / livery / buffers or not)? es gruesst PC

->Jamie I have a Bachman/Farish 371-028 which you could have for very very reasonable price. If interested please contact. es grüßt PC

Regarding the buffets, this is what I was told by sales on 18th June (statement between inverted commas) "The official list is as follows: NC054A MK 3 COACH VIRGIN BUFFET BUFFERS NC054B MK 3 COACH I/CITY BUFFET (executive livery) NC054C MK 3 COACH BLUE/GREY BUFFET BUFFERS NC055A MK 3 COACH VIRGIN BUFFET NO BUFFERS NC055B MK 3 COACH I/CITY BUFFET (swallow livery) NC055C MK 3 COACH BLUE/GREY BUFFET NO BUFFERS As you will please note Product Development has decided on one of each Executive & Swallow and not both. NC054 is for models with buffers and NC055 without." So I feel it is not what is produced that is the issue, that is Dapol's decision, but the different statements that come depending on where they are read (eg Dapol's FB side) ->Dapol, I am looking forward to reading what is in the catalogue, as all our doubts will be laid to rest and once the catalogue is publically available I bet you'll find all these discussions die!!!!

back to original post, and I apologise to everyone in advance. first make sure you are standing in front of an appropriate layout and choose from the following list: I wonder when Scalefour modellers will finally start to scale the the weight correctly Isambard Kingdom Brunel should have stuck to ships I always thought (Insert your chosen line/engineer) was overrated anyway I've been standing here for an hour and you haven't run Thomas yet You don't look after your locos very well, they're all dirty
