    I’m still hoping someone someday will release a 123/124 Trans Pennine unit and a 120 would be nice an 01 shunter would be good but I suppose it's a bit too niche... I would say an 06 but knowing Hornby they would claim that as their own too! But to be honest as long as your next choice is diesel or electric I'll be supporting you

    This was pointed out earlier in the thread when the model was released (page 34 I think) I'm hoping they get it right on the 29 and future releases

    unfortunately that's the bit that bothers me. With a general release I'd feel I was OK to get a few of the model over a short period of time to convert to others in the class, but with a lesser number made I'd have to try and afford them straight away all together for fear of them selling out. So I'd still prefer a general release for it rather than a special. That way leaving specials for little oddities Although 37081 in L/L with its original hand painted numbers would be good as a special...

    Even though I'm a 1980's Scottish white stripe and large logo man I have a real soft spot for the Network Rail Yellow beasts! I never thought I'd see the day when we were offered a correct 97301 so you have no idea how much this announcement pleases me

    'Nods enthusiastically' But as a general release model not as a special edition (had enough of Bachmann doing that)

    My email from Rails doesn’t say it’s in stock, it says it’s due in this week.

    I must have been half way through filling in the form when you did the update because I read the pre-order page and saw October, I filled in the form and submitted it and all of a sudden it said November

    Funny how I disagree with virtually everything there! It’s a good job we are all different isn’t it i agree that they definitely aren’t a pretty loco but I liked them in blue with or without buffer skirts and with black headcode boxes. I’m a man driven by sound though and no matter how much I love a 40, I found the whistling a little grating after a while, so I preferred the 37 for its guttural growl

    I rang Charlie yesterday morning Edit: And it’s just arrived
  10. 37081LochLong
    Nope, I ordered mine (RT156-313) on the 6th of June 2017 and I haven’t received any email and it’s not in my spam folder either! It’s order id #88 with a £50 deposit paid. EDIT: I went to the website and saw the details for pre-ordered sets on there so I’ve just paid the remainder of the balance

    Remember it’s a bank holiday weekend so I wouldn’t expect a reply until Tuesday at the earliest. perhaps if they aren’t donating anything and you buy the loco you can make a personal donation yourself. personally like others have already mentioned I think charity donations are better left as voluntary

    I'd just like to apologise to everyone for unintentionally taking this thread off topic! I mentioned YouTube unboxing as a passing throw away comment and somehow it's just run away! Oops

    I have two locos on order and I wasn't going to bother with the faster delivery because I'm in no rush to do any kind of YouTube unboxing video like some people will do. But then I thought if I pay extra for one I can stagger the payments and not have the worry about paying for two locos together so close to Christmas. As 7013 says, this is a good dilemma to have

    I got a call on Saturday but I was driving and got no answer when I tried to ring them a little later but I rang them back today to pay for mine
  15. 37081LochLong
    Many thanks for the very quick reply Cav I can relax now haha

    Hi, just a quick question, I put in my expression of interest last week but I never received an email confirmation (yes I checked spam folders too) is this how it works or have others on here received a confirmation?
  17. 37081LochLong
    Now that I will most definitely be getting!
  18. 37081LochLong
    I don't comment much but I thought I'd just mention that my first 90005 arrived with the broken bogie tower problem along with parts underneath needing to be pushed back into place, indicating to me poor handling by the delivery company. My 90042 was delivered by royal mail and was fine. My replacement for 90005 is perfect, then again I picked it up from the shop this time to be certain it would be ok
  19. 37081LochLong
    I got that email from Rails too, but if you go to their site they have the price listed at £33.95
  20. 37081LochLong
    That's a much better price I hope you like it (I'm sure you will, i'm really happy with mine)
  21. 37081LochLong
    Or if like me you don't want to use Olivias (and I live 10 minutes from the shop) - https://www.rainbowrailways.co.uk/Dapol-class-class-68019-transpennine-express-p-1571.html

    I got a couple last month and they are the replacement bodies with correct printing and printed nameplates (separate plates are supplied too)

    Have Heljan changed the Haymarket 27012 to be 27033 instead?
  24. 37081LochLong
    I'm buying one of the blue pre-TOPS machines, D9021... I'm afraid to add that it will be getting renumbered to its TOPS 55021 though
  25. 37081LochLong
    If that's what you think, you think it
