  1. Thanks, i have found the image on flickr and have now bookmarked it. Thanks. Thanks.
  2. Hi, in the Rail Magazine Issue 847 it mentions that the class 88 has been investigated by GWR for taking over on the Sleeper but it turns out due to their diesel capacity it wasn't up to the standard required and therefore have been ruled out however they are looking at other options. Also it is stated in the same issue that Beacon Rail suggested that a Class 68 could be an option. Samuel.
  3. Thanks Revolution i have been trying to look for the code of these wagons while looking at videos online now i have found the answer. I know this is being produce for N gauge but hopefully at some stage you may look that producing a OO gauge version. Samuel.
  4. Dave, Are you going to be changing the packaging used on the J94s such as what's used on the 14xx locos? Thanks, Samuel.
  5. There were a couple of models that Kernow seem to of cancelled mostly class 47's. Personally i think it was just wrong timing for them due to other exclusive liveries and working on models directly with a factory in china coming in around the same sort of time and as there is only so far a business could cope with to cover various projects some things most of been cancelled/ giving back to manufacturer and as such Bachmann have release them as Rep Editions and Collectors Club models. Samuel.
  6. I wasn't born back then but personally i would count it as a cop because you took a photo of it to prove you have seen it plus it is the only 57/6 to carry that livery and the only one to have certain unique/identifiable variations on it. But on the other hand if i took a photo of a GWR HST with vinyl (GWR) logos on without catching the number i wouldn't count it as a cop due to there being more of them. Samuel.
  7. Going by the product codes i would say that the individuals model are from the following region: 37025 (32-780RJ): North of England/ Scotland 37114 (32-781SD): East Anglia/ East Midlands/ Sout Yorkshire 37704 (32-390DB): West Midlands/ Wales
  8. Andy Y said that yesterday. So news about it could be released today.
  9. I think revolution may catch up with some of the annouced N gauge wagons first but by interesting to see what's next in 00 gauge. Samuel.
  10. They are definitely looking good. They may happy to see the back of them but will have another model to do afterwards.
  11. I would also buy a GWR Green version and hopefully a Dynamic Lines Class 143 if Realtrack decide to do another unit with this livery. Samuel.
  12. I have noticed that there is now another livery been put on a Northern Rail Class 156. 156480 is in a special livery celebrating 100 years of the RAF. Samuel.
  13. Just another quick question did these wagons work in Cornwall from when they were first released and did they work in multple (same wagons) or individually (with other wagons)? Thanks, Samuel.
  14. Thanks for the information. It is interesting to know how much it cost back then for a repair i bet it would be a lot more now. That wagon number is one of the models Kernow have choosen to do. Thanks for the information. Do you know when the solar eclipse was? Thanks for the useful information. Do you know if they these wagons were in block or individual formation? Thanks.
  15. Bachmann may not produce them fast enough but could affect sales of certain/special liveries if they make them or get an exclusive license that doesn't allow anyone else to use the same livery.
  16. I have been trying to find out what kind of traffic these wagons would do in Cornwall and images of them but all i can seem to find is the bogie version of the Cargowagon. If anyone could help tell me where i can find images and information i would appreciate there help. Thanks, Samuel.
  17. Most locomotives that have nameplates wouldn't be able to be renumbered due to being oneoffs and having special liveries such as 66789 & 66783. It would be nice to know what they are planning regarding the nameplates whether separate or fitted. I think the reason people are asking for so many different special livery/variations in one go is because they don't won't Bachmann to do the version they want with the old tooling which may make Hatton's not do the same livery on their version in the future. Samuel.
  18. Thanks for your help. I couldn't find information until someone mention what CPC standed for and where they where based. Also Thanks for your help.
  19. I know that DRS is running The Marches Cornishman in September but would you be able to say what other tours DRS is working on in cornwall? Thanks, Samuel.
  20. I wouldn't have thought so as Hatton's has announced the British Rail version on their new tooled class 66.
  21. The HST is running into Bodmin Parkway and the sidings are still there.
  22. I agree with this as i like my models pristine. 66705 Golden Jubilee was a Bachmann Limited Edition done for Kernow Model Rail Centre. Evening Star could be done with the revised GBRF cab side Logos instead of the Europorte versions as on the Bachmann one. I think one of the versions announced will be a barbie coloured version. Could be less due to dealing direct with a factory and having several produced that the same time. That's if Hattons are producing 500 of each locomotive don't forget that these models are being done directly with a factory in China so production numbers could be potentially lower compared to going though another producer. I would also buy a Royal Scotsman liveried Class 66. Also they could do Evening Star as it is now the GBRF cab logos have been revised.
  23. Kernow Models have introduced many models but with any new model they release there needs to be research, checking CAD's and other items that require attention also there needs to be funds available to make the tooling. Don't forget that Kernow is a still a small business with few employees which gets less with exhibitions and so on which means less time checking details. Along with new models Kernow have announced special liveries onto existing models which also requires time to check the artwork and so on. It may appear that they have only two projects on the back burner but perhaps they are working on other models that have not been announced. Also don't forget that they are working on the Bolster E.
  24. I reckon by looking on the drawing in the tweet that it looks like it's the centre car of the Class 185 although the width is slightly smaller than scale.
