Awesome! Hopefully you will do a West coast railways version! 35508 would be a great choice, still currently in use on the mainline with them as a support coach I believe, regularly seen with the Riley Black 5s!

Accurascale 37 🤞😅

Showing as arrived on the Bachmann website so I’d expect them in shops soon!

West coast railways Mk2 showing as arrived on the Bachmann website so expect it in the shops soon!

Yes please! Before I place my preorder 😂

I nearly fell over when I got the email saying “Accurascale new announcement” then realised it was these couplings :)…Sorry it’s January so there’s not many other exciting things happening! :)

Saw a post the other day that said no change to the end of January delivery for the first batch, take no news as good news!

Images of a weathered version have been shared on Facebook by KR Models, soon available to pre-order. I’ve suddenly just become much more interested in adding a torpedo to my collection! I think it looks spot on! 👌

Looks like these have been pushed back again, MK1s now showing Aug/sep and MK2 showing Feb/March.

Yeah sorry about that! 😅😂 Knowing Hornby they probably produced 4 BSKs for every SK produced as they seem to be plentiful.

I’ve just started building my rake of WCRC MK1s, I’ve found a good starting point are Hornby’s latest Harry Potter MK1s, They have maroon ends, orange stripe, correct bogies and are the latest toolings. I’m just removing the Harry Potter logos and replacing with some WCRC transfers from Railtec, A covering of varnish, paint the bogie details and darken the roofs and that’s close enough for me 🙂

I’ve received my Rail Charter Services Mk3s today, same as the FGW ones they are a transfer not printed. 4 out of the 5 coaches are actually pretty straight and acceptable but the Buffet car has a nice sag on one side unfortunately. Does anyone else have them to see if they are all the same or if I have a bad one? Cheers, Adam

Id seen some of the first class Mk3s selling for over £120! They’ve soon dropped in price now though! The power cars still go for around £300 though, despite having the incorrect lights!

My EMT Mk3s arrived yesterday after being somewhere in the post system for the last 10 days, they look really nice, a decent upgrade on the ex lima Mk3s… Just need the power cars now! Come on Hornby 😬 Has anyone purchased a rake of the Rail Charter services coaches yet? I’ve picked up the rake from Chester model centre, just awaiting their arrival.

My wish list: Steam: New tooling: 1.LMS 8F 2.L&Y A class New liveries: 1.6233 Duchess of Sutherland in current mainline disguise I do think we will see a Tyne dock 9F in this announcement with delivery of the new 9F earlier this year. Diesel: New Tooling: Prototype HST New liveries: Class 43 HSTs; NRM 43102 in Intercity & Purple 43274 EMR 43274 & 43257 in colas twin pack (Purple & Red) 43290 & 43299 in Network Rail red. I’m easily pleased…

Just ordered a pair of Midland Pullman power cars, I wasn’t going to bother but I think Hornby have made a decent job of them and has made me want a set! 😫 Hattons had 10+ at lunchtime and now they’ve all gone! 😳

Hattons have just uploaded photos of all the HSTs currently available, it appears the rail adventure ones don’t have a cab end coupling from the photos…

Check out Accurascale’s blog for delivery dates: https://www.accurascale.com/blogs/news/want-chips-with-that-class-37-update-october-2022 One thing Accurascale do very well is keep their customers up to date with project status and estimated delivery dates. Cheers,

I know your a busy man… but I wondered if there were any plans to create a set of transfers for the DATS test train with the Class 43s in ex EMT livery? I’ve started modelling the consist I saw back in March but wondering if the transfers will be made available or if I need to make my own 😅

Snowy industry ❄️

That looks amazing! Could easily be mistaken for 0 gauge!

Thanks for the images, I’m impressed. Definitely an upgrade on the old coaches.

I was just wondering the same thing before I click “Buy” on my £340 shopping basket…

Here’s a few pictures of my NCB Chaldrons in the wild, still very impressed with these models. Surprised how small these are every time I open the box!

Grabbed the micro layout out of the loft this evening and gave victory a little test and I must say I am super impressed with this model 👏 Runs super smooth straight out of the box, can negotiate the tight corners of the yard no problem and the colour of the locomotive fits in with my black and white themed layout perfectly! Top job PI, looking forward to the next model!
