Hi all,
If you could choose 3 existing or to-be-released models from manufacturers to be released in new (prototypical) liveries, what would they be?
My choices:
- Bachmann Class 170 - Hull Trains
- Hornby Class 60 - GWR
- Bachmann Class 66 - DRS
Hi all,
If you could choose 3 existing or to-be-released models from manufacturers to be released in new (prototypical) liveries, what would they be?
My choices:
- Bachmann MKI's in Maroon with WR numbers
- Hornby 100T tankers with liveries/company names for the earlier
1980-1985 period- Bachmann 37/0 in BR Blue with WR number

Bachman are doing a DRs 66, see post above about class 66
Good to hear - if Bachmann get it right, that'll be at least 3 on order for me!
It'll be 66405 with Malcom Logistics branding, and not the flying compass logo!
Cheers, John.

I'd go along with the Hull Trains 170, but I suspect this is now unlikely to happen with these units due to be replaced with class 222 Meridians in the relatively near future. Totally out of period for my modelling era, but I'd still buy one I reckon.
John.
It's pretty much a moot point now, given how bad the model looks in photos.
Photo's of a pre-production model which doesn't have the moulded window seals painted black? Wait for the production model to appear and make your judgment then, my friend!
Cheers, John.

John.
When it arrives, not holding my breath. ;-)
One to add would be bachmann 37/0 railfreight grey aswell.
In message , ViP may have written...
How about Hornby retooling the J83 and Caley Pug? And of course putting them out in proper NBR and CR colours. And maybe a B12 with the 'backpacker' unit. Oh go on, please...
But ignoring the wish lists. Bachmann 37/0 and 37/4 in Large Logo, and a couple of 37/0s in Railfreight sectors.
Just checking Hattons, I thought Heljan done a 47 in RF grey but they dont, just in red stripe, that would be another want. ;-)
manufacturers
They have, it's 47211. See
Cheers, John.
