Just ordered one of the last of the x5 sound fitted 051 with a nice discount courtesy of some points! Let's see what these are like 👍

Hi Charlie,

Have you got any of these in stock still please? RT156-314

Thanks,

Chris

Hi Chris,

 

Yes indeed. Apologies, I have been under the weather recently but getting back up to speed now. 31 update later this week.

 

Cheers!

 

Fran 

Thanks Fran, wishing you a speedy recovery 👍

Will there be an update on these this week at all please?

I appreciate the 37's are very much at the forefront at the moment, however will we be seeing any further decorated samples of the 31's/ a progress update please? 

Chris 

Getting back on topic...

I'm hoping a spare 051 appears on the website next week. The 37/0's do look very nice indeed.

Thats not until the next run I believe, if you are on about the tango orange 37 - so next year?

37610 is in blue with full yellow ends, believe that's in with the 37/6 which aren't too far away?

The timeline is as before just running a week or so later than planned. We hope to have the entirety of the (vast) first run all with customers over the next 8 weeks. 

Thanks for the update. With 026,027 and 051 arriving imminently it seems, are the Large Logo trio far behind?

Original plan was

 

Following that, 37026, 37027, 37051 will arrive into stock in mid-April, and then finally in late April the BR Large logo trio of 37043, 37402 and 37409 will arrive, completing batch 1 delivery. 

 

So batch 1 is about two weeks behind as we tweak the program to avoid a small number of sound in rush protection cut out and batches 2,3 remain on schedule. 

Thanks Stephen 👍

The schedule is broadly unchanged. The next batch should be here late next week. The further batches remain on their timelines. 

I thought the Large Logo trio were due end of April? I'm guessing you're referring to the 3 37/0's? 

Chris 

It would be good to get an update on the delivery schedule for the 37/0's as photographed this week and 043,409 and 402 as it seems there's a delay on these arriving so everything is pushed back?

Possibly more 37's and 47's..

Loadhaul, Mainline Blue and EWS would be welcome..

I’ll just slip in that screen grab of some the deco samples to whet our appetites once again! There will be a new improved headlight amongst other refinements on the proper ones.

Are these not due in the middle of April as per the update on the website?

The one thing that frustrates me is the lack of specific updates as to when these will arrive - perhaps we're spoilt with other manufacturers who are quite detailed in this respect. Still, I'm looking forward to the 25's arriving.

Nothing to say that hasn’t already been said and since nothing has changed with what’s been delivered vs what was on display the other month there’s nowt to discuss. Plus most people don’t care so….🤷🏼‍♂️

It's probably not the only reason, however perhaps people are buying dependent on which manufacturer is producing the livery most suited to their layout/era of operation?

The first week of April has come and gone, the first set of 37's should be here by now I would imagine?

is the new 37 tango going to have its own specific sound file or are you going to use existing ones ?

 

just asking as it would be really good, as its an exclusive, to have its own original sound file to make it that bit more exclusive !😁😁😁

As much as I like this idea, surely the cost of such a project will not be justifiable? 

Has anyone been to York show over the weekend? If so, is it possible to confirm when these are due? I've seen "Summer" mentioned and I have sent an email with no reply unfortunately. 

Not long to go now! The week for the first batch arrival is here. Should be interesting 👍

Well next announcement is Saturday… Great Eastern would be my bet for a 37/2 Celeb Accurascale limited edition.

Where's this other announcement been mentioned?

Hoping the Exclusive announcement is a WCRC version 

Loadhaul would be a lot better. 

It's a shame they're taking so long to come through to be honest.

These look exquisite, the refinements in the windscreen area look spot on. Looking forward to them arriving and seeing them on people's layouts.

Plus it’s not too bad on these earlier samples already. I really want this model to knock the spots off the overpriced but nevertheless very good competition!

I would agree, the fit and finish of the windscreens looks a lot better.

Hi Chris,

 

Sorry to disappoint, but full update is early next week. I do promise it will be worth it though :)

 

Cheers!

Thanks Fran, have a good weekend
