    Any idea what's happened to West Coast Railways' 47245? Didn't appear with the other recently released catalogue 47s.
  2. WILLIAM
    Not a dealer rep model but 47245 of West Coast Railways has not appeared yet either unlike the other catalogue 47s. Anyone know why?
  3. WILLIAM
    Agreed. From what felt like a long quiet spell for 00 modern image everything is now coming around the same time; Bachmann 47s, 66s & 70s, Hornby 87s, DJM Class 92 next installment, Heljan 26s, Oxford Rail Mk3a etc., phew! Unfortunately, like most of us, I cannot afford everything at the same time so will have to be selective and hope other items don't sell out in the meantime. Great to have the choice though!

    I hesitated on this one and now cannot find it available online. Does anyone know of any retailers that still have any? Thanks. Ignore me. Found it at Trains 4U.
  5. WILLIAM
    Think you should delete your last post too. It was only quite politely pointed out that it had been discussed earlier in the thread :-)
  6. WILLIAM
    Yeah, and £15 more expensive than all the others presumably because it's weathered. At £169.95 unfortunately I'm out.
  7. WILLIAM
    Think Heljan did that one but who has done 47484?
  8. WILLIAM
    Yeah, I'm not complaining - would make a nice pair.
  9. WILLIAM
    Hasn't a GWR150 class 47 been done before by Bachmann? IIRC 47079 as a Kernow limited edition.

    I registered an interest for 10p when it was first announced but have not received any further comms yet either....? Did the same for the Royal 47 and was contacted once prices and release dates were known.
  11. WILLIAM
    I received an email from Hattons a few weeks ago saying the DRS 47 was due on or after 26th January (i.e. today!) but nothing since.
  12. WILLIAM
    As pointed out earlier, it's strange that two Colas locos are not in the catalogue (37099 & class 70) but 37421 is there?? Have they been sold out to retailers already?
  13. WILLIAM
    As mentioned above, the release with red back nameplates was a production run and therefore not limited to a specific number. The Hornby Collectors Club model, weathered with black backed nameplates, was however limited to 500 models.
  14. WILLIAM
    Two versions of 50007 in green have been done in the past by Hornby. R2408 with red backed nameplates - production release 2004 R2499 with black backed nameplates, weathered - Hornby Collectors Club Limited Edition of 500 released 2005

    Thanks for the head's up. It does seem a little at odds with Bachmann's website such as listing 66728 which the website doesn't show due until March/April. As already mentioned the new class 70s are an interesting omission too given the website says Dec/Jan. Time will tell...
  16. WILLIAM
    I suspect they have not shifted as many 66418 or 37672 limited editions as expected as these have been discounted (15 year celebration is a good cover) or bundled cheaper with complimentary stock. I'm really grateful to KMC for continuing to commission limited editions, they've done some good ones but, like a lot of us I'm sure, I cannot buy them all like I previously did but now choose the few I really, really like. I'm hoping one or two others will also be discounted in the future.
  17. WILLIAM
    Yes Style 2 looks about right.
  18. WILLIAM
    You weren't the person I was thinking of :-) I think it is reasonable given the nature of Dave's post on 3rd August to ask for a quick update. I'd hope he wouldn't feel hounded by this.
  19. WILLIAM
    Possibly but only one person can answer that for sure.
  20. WILLIAM
    Surprise, surprise. Just waiting for a similar announcement on the Locomotion 'royal' 47. Still, some more time to save up.
  21. WILLIAM
    The Locomotion ltd ed royal 47 is also said to be due in October which, like the Colas 47, doesn't fit with the January delivery date for the production 47s....
  22. WILLIAM
    Welcome announcement. Even more welcomed would have been a batch of TOPS numbered Class 27s if anyone from Heljan is reading.....
  23. WILLIAM
    Gives us time to brace ourselves!
  24. WILLIAM
    To be honest the emails fail to say much at all, with key information like price and expected delivery dates missing. Even the info they try to give is replaced with an XXX. Still it's better than complete silence and at least we know they are definitely going ahead.
  25. WILLIAM
    Hi Dave, For budgeting purposes are you any closer to knowing when the second invoices will be issued? There's quite a few desirable releases at the moment and I dont want to get caught out. Thanks
