Mr chapman

A LSWR T3 should be on the cards from someone. It's just who announces it and when. I suspect Bachmann or EFE for Kernow.

Thanks. I like to model the grouping period currently mixing the new grouping liveries with the former.

Looking at the big 4 limited editions. Is the southern joyous gard in 1923 condition? I know it's pre deflectors but that is longer than you would think.

I would have thought the T3 would be on Hornby's hit list. What with the observation car, MK1 and maunsell in the range. A Swanage train pack would be an instant win you would think. Anyway... I wonder if the good people at Rapido would consider an O1 train pack at some point? Seems like there are a nice selection of wagons in the range to match. Maybe with some sort of extra to lure people like unique wagon loads or something? A nice crew?

Very much looking forward to the O1. And hopefully someone will produce the T3, to with the EFE cross country sets if nothing else! I'm sure Rapido have their plate full. Although the tender from the O1 could be reused... A LBSC box van would go nicely with the E1...

This one has 1995 on the etch so perhaps it's an updated version. I got passed this from another chap who bought it years ago. Poor sod picked this one as a first etched brass kit and it put him off for about 30 years!

Thanks for that, this has been more useful than the instructions supplied. It's slightly different to my one as that has a knife edge or something that slots together on the bolster rather than the wire arrangement. The brake gear twists as a one piece affair rather than the individual halfs you have as well. Much appreciated!

I have to say I was very impressed with the prototype on display. Will definitely be having one of those.

I have a SEF D1 on the bench. It's the same basic kit as the wills with a newer etched chassis. The dimensions are correct for the E1. But that has been put on pause since I discovered the C14 kit existed. That will be next in line :)

That's a big help thanks! Not to be too much of a pain in the arse but is there any chance of a picture from the top side?

Hello. I don't suppose anyone has built a kit from Caley coaches and is able to pop a bogie off or grab a picture from underneath a coach? The instructions are rather vague and I'm struggling to make sense of the parts. It's a compensated bogie in two half's that rock. I have unlisted tabs in the middle and a listed tab to fold over that is not going to fit how its explained. Any help please would be much appreciated!

On the three pack for rails yes. These are individual general release and the LBSC wagons are new. Good news all round.

Will you guys knock it off for a bit! Every time I think I'm clear, BOOM new announcement. The LBSC wagons will have to be purchased and the early SECR wagons to go with the rails SER break van. Given all the research that goes into these would it be possible to mark the PO wagons home turf on the website? Like the era system of something. Joe Blogs coal -era 3- south west Stuff Co -era 4- north I know they all travelled around but it would be useful if you was trying to make up a local goods.

I'm sure it has been asked somewhere in the last 20 pages but are there any plans to offer individual vans at some point in southern livery?

That "sport" where people stand there and slap each other in the face meets all criteria. But that's as dumb as it sounds.
