They were £160 when I posted.

Maybe they've been reading the posts on here and thought they would chance their arm ....

Hi everyone,

 

Thought you might like to see DB 90037 which has just passed through my workbench for assembly. Just the etched name plates to go on to complete. 
 

All the best

Mark

Brilliant stuff Mark - did you produce the transfers yourself ? If not, where did you source them from please.....

Ben 

Anyone know how we go about pre-ordering these beauties ??

Ah cant be a 47 or 10 ........ Some more Scottish MacDuffs in the making .....

Hmmmmm I wonder lol 

A few locos have had transfers applied today .... 47582, 47635 & 37128 in Large Logo Livery and 90036 in DB Cargo Livery and finally 47541 in Inter CIty ScotRail Livery ....

I dont get the fuss with catalogues ..... dont get me wrong I get one as im a member of the Collectors Club but you can still see everything online and you get the news from their website or from Young Andy on here so why worry about a catalogue ...

Must admit I do wonder if it'll be a retread of this years offering with the first quarter's items added .... who knows, maybe Bachmann are going back to a full range announcement .......

Guess we shall see one way or another soon ....

That would be nice, but i think it may be a while before the next crop comes along. I am just glad that there are people out there with the skill to repaint a locomotive

Be a few more arriving to you soon .........

Something very therapeutic about taking off the masking tape after a days work .... todays efforts have seen the following : Little and Large EWS Class 47 and 37s, Inter City Class 50s and 87 and also a smaller version ..... a Hornby Push/Pull Set resprayed in Blue/Grey Livery and finally am Interim Europhoenix Class 73 ala the ex DRS 37s ......

Might be a trick of the light but I'd say there's green showing through the yellow on the 90, just above the light cluster

 

Graham

Would hope its a trick of the light as it was masked fully before the green went on .........

And checked and indeed a trick of the light .... sorry 

Not got a pic .... but I'll trump your queue of 90s ..... probably doing most the same ones lol ....

Greta stuff Jerry - keep it up .....
