Boroal Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 Hi all,I pre ordered the above loco with steam generator almost a year ago. I have heard and seen little about them since then. Does anyone know what is happening, are we ever likely to see them in the wild?I guess there are others in my position waiting for the steam generator models hopefully someone has more information than I do and is able to share.

96RAF Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 I guess when it’s ready it will be ready. The detail of SS locos is not in the manual yet, so likely some time to go yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveM6 Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 The website still say ‘expected Spring 2024’ although some slippage can be expected as with pretty much all models these days.It will arrive when its good and ready - remember that the 2MT took five years to go from design to delivery.

Simmo009 Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 Just back from Warley where I spoke with one of the Hornby designers. They had decorated samples on the stand rather than the EP's they had at GETS. Looking really good. The first ones should be around June next year, but the smoke generator version will be a little later, about this time next year. The lights will be configured for Express Goods, but additional lamps and irons will be included in the accessory pack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
What About The Bee Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 Hello Simmo009Did you, by any chance, take pictures of the Hornby display cases? If so, I would certainly appreciate it if you would post them.Thank you!Bee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simmo009 Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 Sorry Bee, so much to see in a short time, I didn't think to take any photos. But there are plenty on the RMWeb thread for these locomotives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
