Postman Prat Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 Hi JacobThe A3 with d/chimney and German Deflectors has been done by Hornby a couple of times (I've got one). It may even be current now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bocaj Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 Hi PP,I thought they had done a few with these featuers. I was hopeing to get A3 'Brown Jack' but everywhere had seemed to run out of stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mortehoe Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 How about a NER Tyneside electric 1920's, or Sentinal steam rail car, or the powered and trailer version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malB Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 The North Eastern 3rd Rail electrics dated back the around 1904-05. The 1st section being the North Tyneside loop Newcastle-Manors-Jesmond-Gosforth-Benton-Whitley Bay-Tynemouth-Wallsend-Walkergate-Heaton-Manors-Newcastle. The LNER adde the Newcastle-South Shields sectinin the twenties/thirties with some newer stock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingfox4475 Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 The LNER loco's i would like to see would be Claud Hamilton 4-4-0, N7 0-6-2 Tank, and the Flying Scotsman as at 1928 with corridor tender read for the 1928 non stop Flying Scotsman service with complete train of teak stock [ super detailed model not from railroad range] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bocaj Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Hi flyingfox4475,I think your wish for the Flying Scotsman Train pack could have allready been granted! The Hornby R2888M Flying Scotsman Train Pack. It comes with a Super Detailed Hornby A4 'Kingfisher' and some detailed Greasly Teak Coaches. I see that you would like the Flying Scotsman loco in the pack, it would be a nice addition but unfortunatly I don't think Hornby will be making the Train Pack again, just with a diffrent loco. If your just after the loco, you could allways detail the Railroad Range Flying Scotsman, which is in 1928 condition. Jacob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
81F Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 I'm not really an LNER fan but I would like to see an accurate model of an LNER cattle truck - not sure of the diagram but they were the longer ones with the short wheel bases that always seemed to hog in the middle - Ive built one from a parkside kit but would prefere rtr.A wooden underframed 5 plank open would be good also and the four bogied flast wagon would be impressive.

morley00 Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 Hornby have produce some great lner models already L1 and the B1 and B17 it would be great to get some new edition to the fleet engines like G5 which is a great loco something different or K1 , V1,J25 ect but depends on there ability to sell certain models or able to use the same tooling to create the br version in late creast and early like they have done most the lner models but I think there will be delays in production and maybe we won't get what want but there might not be as many new models for next year depends how sales are and what other manufactures are producing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozexpatriate Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 In almost four pages no one has mentioned the Quad-Art set! That's usually a popular item.Nor did I notice anyone mention the Silver Jubilee A+B sets or the Coronation/West Riding A+B sets in light blue/garter blue, or the Coronation beaver-tail observation car.I'm not particularly a LNER enthusiast, but I would buy the Coronation set to go along with a garter blue A4.

LCDR Posted November 17, 2011 Author Share Posted November 17, 2011 The Quad Art set is certainly a nice idea, but with the individual LNER suburbans promised (and great news that is too) I doubt that the Quads would appear as well. There used to be plastic kits for these, so it is possible to add them to your stock if you wanted to. The Coronation set is just the thing for a commissioned model, and it would not surprise me if one of the model shops that do such things would take this on. In my view the NER Dynamometer Car that accompanied Gresley's Duck on her record breaking run is a coach that would make a good special model. The dynamometer car and 3 pairs of the Jubilee carriages formed this train, that would add impetus to a very special train pack. Maybe a 2013 wishlist item (75 years in June)?

The dynamometer car and 3 pairs of the Jubilee carriages formed this train.I agree!The following combinations would have a lot of appeal. Not a lot of custom mouldings have to be made. Train lengths are long enough but not too long and are therefore relatively affordable and suitable for a lot of roundy/roundy layouts. Hopefully they would appeal to someone to commission. (All the A4s are easily attainable RTR already.)Mallard + 2 x Silver Jubilee (A+B) + dynamometer (record run)Silver A4 + 2 x Silver Jubilee (A+B)Blue A4 + 2 x Coronation (A+B) + observation car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brclass125 Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Hi all,In regards to the Mallard and its record run in July 1938 it was the Dynamometer car and the Coronation set, not the Silver Jubilee Set.I have built a Silver Jubilee Set to run behind the new A4 Silver Link and Silver Fox and have recently bought the Coronation set to build next year.Mark in OZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scott woodgate Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 A G5 class or V2 class in both railroad and detailed version would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hicksan Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 An ex-GNR C12 or exGCR C13 Atlantic tank (4-4-2) would be really lovely. These are two of the most beautiful locos, in my opinion, and have never been done as rtr. Likewise an F1 (2-4-2) tank would be nice, especially if partnered with a push-pull coach. These kinds of locos started off on suburban routes but got displaced, by N2s and N5s out to rural branch backwaters where they lasted till Beaching. It would be nice to see the sort of locos that ran on lines like Stamford GN, which are ideal for smaller layout modelling - a definite gap in the market.

DonnyRailMan Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 I would like to Hornby produce the W1 (Hush Hush 4 6 4) or even the 4 6 4 loco that ran with A4 nose in B R erea No 60700 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingfox4475 Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 I would like hornby to produce a Teak 3rd class sleeping car to complement the 1st they have already done. Also a Kitchen/ dinning car to complement the buffet car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Postman Prat Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 My list includes G5, B16, J21, A8, decent D49, just to be getting along with. Come on, Hornby, you know there's a market out here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rana Temporia Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 I would second the C13, long operating period, push-pull, wide ranging area. It would have to go round first radius for me to buy one though which shouldn’t be difficult for a 442? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
