  1. 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?

  2. 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!
