LB&SCR 337

I just love the modelling going on here. I myself am planning to build the Ffarquhar mk2 layout. Got two 5ft by 2ft boards so that's a start.

Omg omg omg they look amazing....

Can't wait to see the final product

I am in love with this layout so far can't wait to see the finished product

You asked @LB&SCR 337? hehe


I'm not entirely surprised they didn't, there's lots of little variations on the preserved models... same with the Isle of Wight ones... why no preservation ones well that's because of different boiler fittings being in different places compared to their toolings,

Sadly the 7mm version of Fenchurch isn't as preserved it's in it's original A1 condition rather than a bit of A1 and A1X preserved condition.

OMG how much I need it in my life

Think it might come in a bit over that price; old inside cylinder locos with small boilers need to have inside working motion visible, and are quite intricately detailed, but I reckon it could be done around the £170-80 level.  Drive to rear pony to hide it in the firebox, loco packed with ballast if not a solid casting, motor in tender driving through shaft and cv joint. 

Either way I would buy one. They are beautiful machines.

Yeah maybe. I do hope we get them both sooner

Hmmm I'm a little surprised that they didn't make a preserved model of Stepney from the bluebell. I really need one for my bluebell railway diorama

Oh a Jenny Lind engine would just be amazing. I need a RTR version in my life 

Even if the cost would be £130-40 

TAKE MY MONEY!!!!

Ps.  I mean just for a loco and no rolling stock

Hmmm I would have hoped for Bachmann to do something caley. But a C class for £170 in black. Not for me I have 3 already.

It's is AMAZING. The level of detail on them is 100% in my book. Keep it up.

I've been inspired to make my own version of a Steampunk loco, work in progress....

 

 

This is what I'm talking about Hornby get your ideas together and hire this man right now.

They could, but since 4 wheelers didn't get all over Umber, why make something even more wrong?

I meant umber and white livery

I don't see why in another batch they can't do the umber livery coaches

Is there a chance a preserved model of Stepney will be done as I really need one for my bluebell railway collection.

I don't want to insult anyone but I think the American engine's are very ugly.

I love the elegance of the Victorian and Edwardian era railways.

The way I would have done it is buy getting the Dean single and recolour it with a couple more pipes in brass and use a cog the same size as the driver wheel and stick that on. Maybe a small clock on the front of the smokebox and take away the front of the wheel arch. And then name the company Great British instead of great western. Just an idea

In fact I will model it myself at some point.

Oh my god are you serious I had no idea they did them on UK website's.

Well I feel stupid.

But in any case I would rather go to my local model shop and get one there and maybe some of those 4 wheeled Brighton coaches for my IoW A1X terrier

Finally I can get my hands on there single for a good old kit bash

Anyone else wanna see Hornby do planet as they can use the same coaches I think

Lovely model kits indeed.

If I may make a suggestion with what model is needed next it would be the Midland Railway 1116A Class 0-4-0st it's a much needed model and very cute and as Hornby have showed little shunting engine's sell very well.

Just a thought.

Does anyone agree that the LB&SCR K class 2-6-0 would be a great model for Bachmann as they have the H1 H2 & E4 of witch I have all. and as you may guess I'm a huge fan of the K class 

The livery's are quite well catered for also

LBSCR has Black, Umber and (red oxide I think?

Southern has Green & Black

BR has well Black

I think it would be a lovely model even if the price might be around £110-£130 I'm willing to pay.

PLEASE Bachmann
