Apologies if I missed the thread. What is the prototypical configuration for 6 coaches in the mid 30's obviously brake 3rds at both ends. What are the next four coaches ?

I have also looked. Surely each Railway magazine should offer a digital index to its subscribers. Perhaps it exists and I am unable to find it

Gwr, King Class, locomotive
Apologies to Andy York for my earlier post – I hope that I am now contributing to the right topic.
Accurascale has arguably produced the best running and most accurate RTR locomotive in 4 mm scale ever – the manor class!
2027 marks the Centenary of the building of King George V, the first Great Western Railway King class locomotive. The King class models produced to date have, to be charitable, been lacklustre and mediocre. They are all now very long in the tooth, and the last thing we now need is a half-hearted Hornby upgrade. I do not doubt there would be a significant market for an Accurascalesque king-class locomotive produced with the same quality, detail, finesse and mechanism as the Accurascale Manor. Most GWR and BR modellers would buy several
I ask that those forum members who agree to make their views known. The planning and marketing for such a seminal model must start now, and, in my view, only Accurascale or Rapido has the proven pedigree to do justice to it!
Let's start the centenary celebrations for KGV now!

This has been on my list for several years. It must be of the highest quality and real steam would be an added bonus. Rapido are the right people to build it-haulage is important. I will buy one

I know that there is a GWR version of this loco_ is that being considered?

Thank you,
Good to get a straightforward and credible explanation!- 1

Having ordered these upon release and waited patiently from Hattons, I see that they are not available. Does anyone know why Hattons has yet to receive stock and who may have stock?

Well, Andy is not the only one! £500 deposit and no replies to e-mails and no explanation. This impacts adversely on other start-up projects. A great idea, but poorly executed. I would have hoped for the decency of a response if the business faced financial difficulty Does anyone have any information?
