when can we expect the new bachmann models

"Meadowgreen-TMD @meadowgreen-tmd.co.uk>" Has anyone any idea when Bachmann will be releasing thier 20 / 45 & 40 this

I'd just be happy if they produced their diesels in Rail Blue with head-codes and pre TOPS numbers (seems to be the forgotten age).....

PS, one for Hornby when their Brush 2 (31) comes out, how about one in green with white bodyline stripes and the BR 'double arrow' - could be 5557 [A] or

5520 [B] (there is photographic evidence for each loco)..... [A] four BR double arrow's under each of the four cab side windows. [B] one BR double arrow on each side, in the centre.

Im waiting for split code 37 aswell, my cash will stay in my pocket untill Bachmann produces one.

Bachmann have just released their USRA 2-6+6-2. :-)

I could do with a couple of non-split code 37's in original (1960s) condition, in green livery.

Whats the code or link to it?

Can't wait - especially if they re-tool the body and make it the correct shape! :-)

From the limited info online and the track supplied with the Voyager set this Christmas, it looks to be the hornby range as produced by Roco rebadged. The track in the sets even still had the 'R' numbers on !

The above may well be the case, but the Bachmann/Kader factory does in fact have its own automated track making machinery (March 2003). I regret not looking closely enough to see what code rail it was using.

All I want is the Jinty...any news on that John?

The official line is *first half of 2004* but I want mine NOW! :-)

Looking on the Pat Hammond site there is a Green and Blue 37/0 split box announced in the Bachmann range; 37038 in blue and D6707 in green. Also centre hcode 37238 and D6826.
