    My card had gone out of date and i received the email on Monday. Phoned the new details Tuesday and they have arrived today. I also ordered the day coaches when i was on the phone.

    Both have the same manufacturing date in the box.

    I think it only ever worked one train in these colours and the engine went pop and was left stored for the rest of the time till Harry did it up for DRS. Hopefully it will sell but i`d be surprised if there was much interest in a loco that did so little. If it was Large Logo or DRS i`m sure it would fly off the shelves Good luck guys.

    Got to admit i would have the Large Logo Shed. Bravo GBRf

    Mine had snapped off with the connectors floating about broken in the bottom

    I bought 2 and have to arrange an exchange for 26011 as the battery box/compressor had snapped off the chassis.

    Just the question I was going to ask! Wonder if they are available anywhere if they are not included.

    I wonder if an etched Centurion plate is long enough to cover over the Leviathan print on 50040.

    Hope you're right, the lights have the close together look of the standard Bachmann flush end.
  12. 47423
    It's got a flush number 2 end and it shouldn't. Hopefully it will just a livery sample.

    I hope that picture of Mainline 47832 is just a livery sample! Pre paid for mine, here's hoping it comes with the correct body on!

    Will the BW pantograph be available as a spare ?. I fancy sticking one on Robert Burns.

    Mine has arrived from Derail`s today (Excellent service, Thank You). Looks very good indeed. It is a nice contrast to the Purple/Blue coaches too as well, without being too different.

    701 and the sleeper coach pack for me.
  17. 47423
    It`s not 47079 has it has no water tanks. it could also be 628 too. On the Scotrail one it looks more like 712 but could be 710

    Prince Harry has a different bodyshell to the modern rep models so won't be made in the same batch. All the rep editions have cut down cabs and also the forthcoming 245.799 and 701 have bufferbeam surrounding and flush number 2 end.
  19. 47423
    The only snag I can see is both 701/799 have flush number 2 ends,non of the others do.
  20. 47423
    Yes
  21. 47423
    Don`t think any sprinters are due are they, maybe a later announcement
  22. 47423
    47625,47712 and what looks like 47500 in the video with 701. 701 will be a cert to be one with any of the other 3 very possible. The anniversary of Diana`s death and the GWR themes to the other 2. I presume 2 of these will be made at the same time as Prince Harry and available Mid October. I am going to have to consider working rest days !!!
  23. 47423
    Excellent news, i`ll have at least one (011) probably two (040).

    Just had a look in this excellent book https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/0860936481/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1492069742&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=class+47+50+years+of+locomotive+history&dpPl=1&dpID=51rimk2F-2L&ref=plSrch 1936 was one of the first locos selected be converted to ETH in the early 70's. D1101-11/1936/1975 were the first batch of 112 locos to be converted by 1974, these all became 47/4 direct from D numbers.
  25. 47423
    Yes, only the first 20 D1500-19 (401-20) and last 2 from Brush 1960/1 (47514/5) were built from new as dual heat locos.
