it may be a run off 500 but then the purple queen elizabeth was soon doubled production run as it sold out in a few hours from being announced. this may not go so quick but I doubt Hornby wouldn't increase the numbers if it is popular.

I ordered one. it will look nice next to my express blue Mallard and Flying Scotsman

I'd like to get a OO one in the RTC livery 

got in before Hornby on the 26th, well done. (im in)

a CIE "Pat" perhaps? not even available as a kit

Well I have to say that was quite a weekend. To see our first locomotive turn its wheels for the very first time on Saturday morning was an incredible sight and the feeling that accompanied this was something that I will never forget. A milestone reached.

 

To say that we are excited about this project is an understatement!

 

 

Here is another clip of the Romanian example on some of our BBA wagons in EWS livery.

 

Our thanks to Mike Buick for allowing us to run our loco on his superb Oak Road layout.

It looks quite good in black. I'm not wish listing but maybe a br black "what if" like the early diesels? 

I apologise if this has been posted before but Loadhaul looks good on anything Loadhaul 395280

I'd certainly support an Accurascale / Irish Railway Models collectors club. I'm in the Bachmann and Hornby clubs

I said I wouldn't buy one. Then the Class 55's arrived and the quality impressed me. So I went and ordered the Kernow Stobart liveried version

I saw this a few times on the ECML in the early days. Then when the AC loco group were trying to acquire it I donated to their fund. So I have to have one. I just have to. Intercity swallow duly ordered.

We have waited 3 and 1/2 years for these models, another few weeks will not hurt

3 Deltics

1 class 31

1 set of RTC Mk2s

Ouch, my wallet. Actually quite good value compared to other manufacturers standard releases

Outside my usual timescale but looking at the previews I’ve succumbed and popped my AS cherry, BR Blue 55005  ‘The Prince of Wales’s Own Regiment of Yorkshire’ is now on order. 😃

You know it makes sense

I asked my wife if she wanted the good or bad news? Good News the Accurascale Deltics are coming. The bad news is your new car will have to wait a bit longer

So I have by way of a self birthday gift / Pished eBay purchase acquired an Auscision B65 class and what a beauty. Can anyone suggest suitable passenger carriages to go with it?

it seems this has started early:

Here's a couple of fictitious liveries applied to the Bees Hill Models N Gauge APT-P.

Strange how the RTC livery seems to suite almost anything. just like loadhaul

I'm in. Intercity livery on order to Malta G.C. Sadly I can't buy more right now

I don't know if this counts, (I'll delete it if it doesn't fit the rules) but I was sorting out some cupboards in the clubroom on Tuesday night and came across these two:

 

 

The railway isn't fictional but the livery is. I think they were made especially to promote the NYMR along with a cattle van in the same livery. No wagons carrying this livery actually exist.

I've got a few fictional livery's. Trotters Independent Traders probably my favourite. I've got the NYMR ones too
