RailwayModeller927

Has anyone else noticed that if you try and search for it on Rails' website, you aren't able to get anything at all? Even if you find it via Google it brings up an error. I'm assuming then it's because of the preorders all being taken? If that's the case then I'm glad I got mine while I did.

I'm primarily hoping that by the time this model releases (and the other liveried new tooled black 5s I may add), Hornby have fixed the issues that have been reported by people.

Well folks, Accurascale's got me again with the Buckjumper. I know I want another one but for the life of me, I can't choose. I'm torn between getting either 84 in the ultramarine blue or the preserved 87 in the GER dark blue.

You aren't the only one, my payment was due on the 23rd as well. Thankfully I was able to pay for it about a week beforehand. I do have a nagging feeling however that it's going to end up being delayed if I'm honest.

Going to be a bit of a hot take, but considering Accurascale went to Bressingham for GER 87, I kinda want RTR models of the other locos there. I'd love to see one of LTSR's Thundersley as IIRC there hasn't been that many ready-to-run atlantic tanks at all outside of the Adams Radials made by Oxford and Hornby.

Cheers, I might have a new favourite livery now thanks to these photos.

Dropped £140 for the DCC ready version of 68619. I can't wait till it arrives later this year. I honestly would've gotten the DCC sound fitted version but I don't have any of the relevant gear to run it. Also sidenote, 68619's artwork on the page is absolutely stunning - If anyone's got photos of it, did it always look that great?

You're not the only one who's excited. If the Manors and the diesels are anything to go off of as a basis, the decorated samples are gonna look absolutely stunning!
