    Reading the MRB facebook page, Met 1 won't be in use on Good Friday, but should be in use the rest of the weekend. Easter Sunday and Monday London Underground liveried class 20 no. 20227 will also be in use. On Easter Monday Peckett 0-4-0ST no. 1163 Whitehead will be in use on Driver for £20 duties.

    Met 1 will be in use at the Midland Railway, Butterley over the Easter weekend. Info from https://www.facebook.com/MidlandRailwayButterley/photos/a.416522381712067.99467.416513115046327/1136889186342046/?type=3&theater

    At the risk of opening a can of worms, I see the RRP for the loco has been withdrawn and is back to TBA.

    The latest Heritage Railway Magazine states that steam trains will operate between Ealing Broadway and High Street Kensington on the 9th and 10th July. The trains will be top and tailed by Met 1 and L150, with electric loco Sarah Siddons assisting. The coaches will be the Metropolitan coaches from the Bluebell Railway and London Transport Museum. The last time steam ran into the District Line platforms at Ealing Broadway was 1993. Here is a video of Steam on the District 1993, that I found on Youtube

    The Harry Potter spin off was the rumour that was going around around Kings Cross over the weekend. But as that was in post-production at the time so unlikely. (Also set in the wrong time and place as the HP spin off is set in 1920s New York, not WW1 era London as the set dressing suggested). The according to a few twitter updates at the time, the actor Chris Pine was spotted during filming. At the time he was filming for the 'Wonder Woman' film. (The latest Railway Magazine states that WW is the likely film).

    The C and coaches are currently making their way back to the Bluebell http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/O71641/2016/02/18/advanced

    Wouldn't surprise me if the wagon is the announced Peco model and the loads are those in the Bachmann Scenecraft model 44-579.

    It has been previously mentioned (probably in the Kernow thread) that Kernow's current website software isn't designed for pre-orders, so it'll take the money and the Kernow staff have to manually refund you. If you want to place a pre-order and not get charged either phone or send an email and arrange payment closer to release.

    Saw them at Kings Cross. The Maunsell coaches were in platform 0. 592 and the rest of the coaches were in platform 1. Apparently the filming is taking place tomorrow, so don't expect photo opportunities.

    Seen on facebook pictures of the C class and coaches on their way to London for filming. The formation of the train is: a class 20, the 3 Maunsells, the 100 seater, the Brighton bogie first, the 3 4-wheel coaches, 592 and a class 20. 592 and all coaches are weathered on one side only. The Maunsells are weathered on the left hand side facing London. 592 and the rest of the coaches are weathered on the right hand side.

    Details of the inaugural run from Kings Cross on 25th February http://www.flyingscotsman.org.uk/events/inaugural-run/ At £450 I don't think I'll be buying a ticket.

    According to the Hornby website the train pack includes Maunsell ex-LSWR Brake Third ‘S2636S’ and Brake Composite ‘S6401S’ in Crimson.

    Is it more or less tacky than the Star Trek train? http://www.bradfordexchange.com/products/917103_star-trek-train.html
  19. Paul.Uni
    Based on where they have filmed DA my guesses are: KESR: A Terrier, 4w carriage(s) & Brake Van Bluebell: A southern 0-6-0 or 4-6-0 with non corridor carriages, probably Greasley or Thompson. NYMR: A BR Std. 4 4-6-0 with LNER lettering and LNER teak carriages

    I don't think it has been mentioned but the first batch (R3333 - R3335) is now due 18th May. The train pack (R3398) is due 19th June. The Second batch (R3422 & R3423) is due 3rd October. Dates from the relevant Hornby web pages.
  23. Paul.Uni
    The release date for the Terriers has moved forward, by 4 days to 27th January.
