  1. Well this is exciting, probably the first 2-8-0 I'll be getting...
  2. Rather exciting given this is going to be their second 00 gauge project, do wonder if they'll expand to other retailers at some point in the nearish future...
  3. Stanir 8F is indeed something that would be good to see a new tooling of, but so would an Accurascale Industrial steam loco to go with the Chaldrons...
  4. Finally gotten round to attaching the sand boxes, and to go for something a bit different, added the works plates to the sandboxes.
  5. I would like Accurascale to do some more GWR Locos namely tank engines like the 2021 class, because why not have a GWR loco that lasted from the late 19th Century to the early 1950s. Though any new tooled 0-6-0 is a good investment from my perspective...
  6. Yes however they constantly sell out and are rather irritating to find. So I guess a new tooled Corridor MK1 would make sense to go with the already announce Suburbans.
  7. It would be good to see more coaches, but I would rather we got a wider selection of coaching stock that hasn't been done before. MK1s would be good mind if we could get a Blood and Custard RMB (like the one preserved at Blaenavon), but I would personally rather some new GWR Coaches that haven't been done before alongside some LMS coaches.
  8. If you go have a look at Rapido's 15xx video, at the end you will find a hint about them doing the County...
  9. Wouldn't be complaing about a new one, though I have just been working on an older one so would be kind of funny. Manors do be looking the part, just need a wartime black version, also something that's been bugging me about the samples, the shiny axles are showing through on the front set of wheels and I'm wondering if this has been corrected for the production models?

    Dapol Autocoach

    The rebuilt 2021s seem like the best candidates to me, but I have seen few pictures. It does become somewhat awkward but I wonder if it's possible to go down the Genesis route with the 2021 class.

    Dapol Autocoach

    Why not a GWR 2021 class to go with these, just thinking as they were initially Saddle Tanks before becoming Pannier tanks not to mention they made it to BR days, and being late 1890s designs they should work well for pregrouping layouts. It may have only been 27 or so examples that were autofitted but surely it could be an interesting locomotive to add to a fleet. Never been done before and the locos were the precursors to the 1600 class Panniers, so quite a wide range of duties could be modelled.
  12. Now that would be cool. Even though that means they'd need a Welsh speaker. I just hope it's a new tooled piece of rolling stock or loco.
  13. Not to my knowledge, think there was a run with DCC provision but not many were produced, not to mention they haven’t been available for quite some time and the mechanism isn’t the best.
  14. As a modeller attempting to model 89B if preserved it's quite high for myself as well. Main reason I would say a new tooled 57xx would be good is the mechanism, but also from general refinements, there is not to mention a lack of separately fitted lamp irons to contend with on the older models, having one of the newer Bachmann 8750 class locos I'd say that there are a few general areas that could do with improvement, not to mention we could get the 97xx variants.......
  15. Probably been answered before but what alloy/metal is used for these models? Just curious that's all.
  16. I know that these are arriving soon, but I wanted to ask if there is going to be a second run? If so I might ask if we could get a GWR Wartime Black Manor, seeing that it's a livery not normally produced....
  17. Now that would be good, a Saloon that is GWR would work extremely well for most modellers. As you say the 2251s haven't been done to modern standards, and quite frankly would be good to see DCC Ready, seeing that they haven't been available for a while.
  18. I think Rapido have hinted at a Hawksworth County so I wouldn’t think Dapol would be doing it, also how does that link in with Llangollen?
  19. A 57xx or a 2884 class would be the only GWR Locos I could see happening, considering the age of the Bachmann 57xx and the hard to get nature of the Hornby 28xx, the Corridor Toplights are supposedly in development though so maybe them?
  20. Different diagram I think though to the already announced Dapol autocoach.
  21. I think that is more likely to happen, looking at the Llangollen Railway Website they have 2 GWR Locos currently based with them, those being 7754 and 3802, so it could be a possibility that it is a Ltd Edition 7754 and a general release range of 57xx Panniers.
  22. I wouldn't think it were a Manor due to the fact Foxcote has already been done. Not to mention 7754 is due back soon so I'm guessing that could be the RoS part of it?
  23. If it is indeed a new 57xx it would certainly be welcome, though I have got 2 older Bachmann models so would probably only end up with...... 5. 57xx makes sense really considering the current tooling widely available is 40+ years old.
