As stated in the other 66 sub forum, great liveries especially the Fastline version in 66302. I hope that livery is also brought out as a Cavalex Class 56. I wonder if the 3rd party commission will be 66301 in GBRF gold livery - since 66301 was not selected for the Fastline livery version 🤔 I will eagerly await the announcements of the exclusive runs especially of 66793 which is sneakily hiding in plain sight. although my wallet isn’t as enthusiastic 😂

Great batch of liveries although I was hoping for the original DRS compass livery. Didn’t stop me ordering them though and brilliant to see the Fastline livery which is always a favourite. I do hope Cavalex brings out the 56 in that one also. Is that 66793 hiding in plain sight on the promotional photo? 🤔

Hi @Accurascale Fran is there a time and promotional video / YouTube stream for tomorrow’s announcements or where is best to see the announcements tomorrow apart from here or the Accurascale website?

Ordered the Garfield exclusive edition pack along with a rake of the new variants of cutdown HYAs. The Garfield wagon looks awesome but I do think it’s a real shame they never included a 2nd graffiti wagon instead of a pristine wagon similar to which featured on the 1st run.

Hi @Accurascale Fran I forgot to also ask, as it is Scotland I model, these wagons are not seen north of the border if so very rarely. So I’m unsure what wagons are seen in what consist. I am aware of a flow in 2021 from Acrow - Mossend but I think that no longer runs. That flow used the original cut down wagons before being repainted into this attractive blue. I do like these wagons and so I can model an accurate consist correctly and also to help others similar, will you consider doing some running diagrams similar to Revolution Trains showing wagon consists and the correct variants of the liveries. It would be also ideal for further releases. Thanks Colin

Thanks Fran - looking forward to your follow up announcement 👍

Great minds think alike 😂

Hi @Accurascale Fran, these look superb and was about to order them but I’m going to hold off making any purchase until I see what the bonus pack of wagons are. Will these pack of wagons be included in the discount rates as there is no point making an order and them not getting included in the 10% / 15%? Thanks.

After yesterday’s Drax announcement, a class 66 in gold GBRf / Drax livery? I'm suspecting whatever it is it will be limited edition for Hornby Magazine / Key World hence why they involved in the video.

Rainbow Railways have recently announced their graffiti versions of the wagons. After ordering pristine versions, I just had to order some of these ones also. I particularly love the egg graffiti. Artwork / Graffiti is from the brilliant @Steadfast

First time attending show and I have to congratulate the event organisers for a superb show. I had an advanced ticket which allowed me early access. Although it got very busy, you were still able to see the displays and trade stands without any issues. Plenty of space and seats for anyone wishing to rest their feet (and wallets). Looking forward to next year.

Had a feeling they would re-run the Drax wagons. Not my area of intended modelling but I’ve always liked these wagons and will look superb behind a new Cavalex GBRF 60. I’ve decided to order a few packs. This might bring the price of the original run down on eBay also as they are sitting around £115 for a twin pack by sellers. Any idea what the other news from Drax mentioned in the livestream could be which is coming this summer?

Hi I’m looking for a copy of this cab ride dvd which I used to own before selling everything many years ago. This is no longer available in any outlets and on eBay. The production company, four foot films, dissolved in 2014. I’m after this as it was filmed in the region I wish to model and in the era - late 90s early 2000 and features a variety of locations and loco workings. Grateful if anyone has this gathering dust in their collection and is no longer of any use, could they please message me. Many thanks in advance. Colin

Absolutely outstanding work and a very brave man vandalising these superb wagons!

Hi, having returned to the hobby and missed the early bird orders on these wagons, I am sorely tempted to order some as they do look stunning and look well up to the standards of my other Revolution stock. I intend to model central Scotland area and I saw on the N gauge HOA thread that there were workings from Middleton Towers to Ayr / Irvine presumably via Mossend. 6S88, T/ThO, 16:17, Middleton Towers - Ayr Harbour loaded sand. Does anyone perhaps have more info on this route (how long it ran for) or indeed any pictures please? I have seen the post from Ben describing a photo from 2007 and also saw the consist diagram but searches on the head code or route has resulted in nothing. Appreciate any help so I have an excuse to order these wagons! Many thanks in advance. Colin
