  1. funnily enough, i had plans to use similer micro connectors on my 7 car pack APT, still not gotten around to it however
  2. Hope these are popular enough for Hornby to later make the Silver Jubilee set and the resturant triplet used on the Flying Scotsman after 1938
  3. I bring another fictional unit, a Stadler based Eurostar unit i refer to as the G3
  4. this news was certainly out of left field for me, i have had nothing but an flawless experience with them the few times i've ordered from them
  5. ok, thanks, i was worried about not being able to get them from hattons 😁
  6. these are listed as discontinued by Hattons, does this mean that they've simply sold out on the pre-orders?
  7. what is the bare minimum of spare parts from Hornby do i need to buy in order to get the non powered NDM from my 2020 7 car set to be powered.
  8. what are the odds currently of Hornby making 370 005 and 370 006 (with the matching coaching numbers) in the future. Also, how much does it cost to motorize the dummy NDM in the 7 car pack via buying spares from Hornby vs just buying the spare powered NDM on its own and swapping shells?
  9. why do i suddenly get a feeling of dread from seeing that clip
  10. i had my NDM from the first run 7 car set sent back to Hornby after it blew with in seconds of running, guess i should remove the cap too?
  11. as far as im aware, no updates on the 755s and no 745s even confirmed yet, unless i've missed something
  12. Finally got my hands on W1 in BR late crest
  13. So Hornby has announced a new P2 model as club exclusive, this being LNER #2005 Thane of Fife
  14. ok, joking aside, i'd love to have a ready to run C9
  15. so by that logic, i should be expecting Hornby to announce some C9s in the 2024 range
  16. Yes! Exactly like this. My main reason for wanting to do a cut and shut is so it can still tilt and going from what images some one posted a while ago, with a simple coupler swap, the 1980s and the 2020 model can be coupled
  17. in my case, my reasoning for wanting to get the second NDM powered is so i could run the APTs as the proposed APT-Q set, i just need a DAV4 which i plan to created by either cut and shutting the 1980s model, or by buying the new MK4 DVTs and repainting an APT-Q set for those who don't know what im refering too :)
  18. my one is the high speed one, but i prefer the early one, cheers
  19. quick question, what type of pantograph did my 7 car pack come with? Asking as the Hornby site are now listing the spares for the APT on the site and i want to swap the pantographs
  20. bet you it'll be like the APT where they're visible
  21. better that the coaches are damaged then having a worker be injured
  22. is it too much to ask for a new tooled class 373 e300 and a class 374 e320 to match?
  23. im still hoping to replace the stock panto with a Bachmann 90 one, also holding out on spare NDM parts so i can get both powered
  24. probably a silly question, but does the Rebuilt W1 in BR green have a removable coal load in its tender?
