Bexhill Donkey Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 I would like a Railroad Electrostar, but I doubt there will be one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCDR Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 I would like a Bulleid 4Sub EMU, especially as there is one now at Margate so they only have to go next door to measure it, and the chassis of the 2BIL would fit straight under it, BUT I have very little hope of ever seeing one. 😢 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know about that one (and I have the kit but haven't got round to making it yet) BUT the one I want is one of THESE --- /media/tinymce_upload/0ca577978eddc523edc74fcdc62acc3a.jpgNo Nonsese Kits used to make it, and I have already made one, but after the proprietor passed away NNK has disappeared (apart from a few bits and pieces) and I cannot make another one to get me a 8 car set.

Postman Prat Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 You want to make 8 of them !?!? And to think I had you marked as a man of taste because of your interest in the NER 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCDR Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 My main OO layout is firmly based in the South East in the 1950s. I may have a few LNER/NER locomotives but these are definately interlopers. In terms of quantity my OO locomotive collection consists of -75% SECR / LBSCR / LSWR / SR/BR(S)12% NER / GER / GCR / GNR / LNER/BR(E/NE)8% MR / LNWR / LMSR / BR(LM/Sc)2% GWR / BR(W)2% Industrial / Light Railway 1% LTPB / LTE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Doc Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 I would like a Deltic TTS sound chip plus a DMU TTS.Me too for both of these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shrews Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 I have recently decided to get back into the hobby and I am really hoping they expand the DCC train set range. Although R1236 'Mixed Freight' looks great value for money it would be nice to have more choice or additional sets to choose from. Alternatively if they did bundles which just included a DCC controller and a locomotive, that would be great! 😆Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atom3624 Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 Whatever they propose, it'll either have to be a 'cheap marketing coup', or extremely good. Some new manufacturers / brands on the market now are moving the detail / quality / accuracy game onto an altogether higher level, for quite an acceptable price. Al.

Howbi Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 @Shrews............Hornby have produced many other Train Sets that are only available through certain retailers known as their Signature range. For example, Kernow Model Rail Centre have 22 different sets on offer. So would be worth checking with your nearest model shop or google model shops.......HB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shrews Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 @howbiman Thanks for the info! I didnt even realise they had other DCC sets available elsewhere, I just assumed there was one (R1236) as per the Hornby website - I will check them out!Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickdeltic Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 I hope that Hornby are making new ac electric model of Class 89 for next year model? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCDR Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 The new items in the range will have been in development for up to two years or more, so any requests we make will be considered and if they decide to make them they will not appear in the shops for at least three years . The MRE Wish List Poll is one method of suggesting to the manufacturers what the modelling fraternity wish for. The top 10 in the November 2018 Wish List Poll included the following. The figure at the start indicated the number of votes cast. 421 GWR Manor 4-6-0 (7800-7829)405 BR Standard Class 2 2-6-0 (78000-78064)373 USATC S-160 2-8-0 (WWII)371 SR U 2-6-0 (31610-31639, 31790-31809)361 WD Austerity 8F 2-10-0 (90750-90774)338 Class 91338 Class 120 Swindon Cross-Country 3-car335 BR Standard Class 3 2-6-0 (77000-77019)333 Class 89 (89001)320 GWR Churchward Toplight Coaches (1907-1922) This might give a clue as to what we might expect in the coming year.

Trevwoody Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 In some cases, products announced in 2018 are not yet with us and are now slated for delivery in Summer 2020. Still waiting for Merchant Navy East Asiatic Company, which has been moved now 3 times. It makes budgetting a bit difficult but at least the pre-order is £40 cheaper than a new order would be. So I won't worry too much about about 2020 announcements! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carltonf Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 I can't see Hornby making a class 89, but would absolutely love it if they did. I'd buy....well....one. Because there was only 1. Bit too niche for Hornby, but I am sure someone will commission it one day. Although, the Holden 101 was a single experimental class of loco, and it's served Hornby well over the years. Maybe the 89 might be a possibility after all!! Here's hoping! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atom3624 Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 I would like a Princess Royal, with a smokebox door 'dart' ... !! Options still out there. How about a Rebuilt Merchant Navy retool? Al. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
96RAF Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 I thought this post was about what Hornby was likely to release in their forthcoming December announcement, not a sideways version of the wishlist thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scumcat 01 Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 Hornby should announce a TPE NOVA1 to make up the set of 3 800 class Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCDR Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 So what are they LIKELY to release mmmm.............. Possibly the Clan 4-6-2 will get a re-run, with maybe a 'Hengist; model. The Lima class 26/27 might make an appearance in the RailRoad range. The detailed LMS carriages will likely re-appear to go with the LMS Pacifics, in both BR Crimson and Cream LMS Crimson Lake, although the Gresley corridors are also well overdue a comeback. It is hard to predict a completely new model but I suspect the TPE Nova 1 stock is a possibility as it uses similar tooling to the GW or LNER 800 stock. Or perhaps they will really surprise us with Nova 3 instead with mark 5 carriages and a brand new class 68 to pull and push it. The BR 2MT 2-6-0 78xxx is a strong possaibility as it has been constantly in the wish-list polls and Hornby's own Ivatt 2-6-0 is long defunct. Those are my predictions, although I could be hoplessly wrong! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrainMan29 Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 I think Hornby are likely to finally release the Railmaster Loco Detection system. They announced it a number of years ago but it has yet to appear. With each passing year we must be getting closer to them launching it.The current Railmaster system is almost useless without loco detection as currently it's impossible to get trains to stop in the correct place. Loco Detection would really complete the Railmaster system and generate excitement and plenty of sales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJsTrains Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 Not sure about new toolings but saw on another forum possibly Duchess of Sutherland in LMS livery to match its current state in preservation and Class 50 in GBRF colours possibly in a twin pack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
