Releases used to be on a Tuesday at the beginning and then with the TTA Tankers and HST that started coming out on a Friday.

I think they eluded to that in their recent interview on TT:120 Rambler that sleepers didn’t sell well

East Mallingford’s Civil Engineering Department has been busy today building some In The Greenwood kits together. Namely:
1. Water Tower - Purchased to hide a turnout motor that wouldn’t fit underneath, just needs adjusting slightly to allow the rod to pass through.
2. Double Terrace Low Relief - For back scene test build to see how many more would be needed.
3. Large Signal Box - Was hoping to hide the leavers for the point motors, but unfortunately it wasn’t practical so East Mallingford Railway now has staff offices in a converted signal box.
4. Footbridge Height Extension - Purchased not to extend the height, but as Station Steps and they work great.
Over to Art & Design for painting.

Any update on the dates for the Class 50? Still imminent?
Date moved to 21st

I like the new Gill font

Wasn’t expecting it so soon, but I guess they are promoting the 50s due next week.

@Dave the Busker you models must look really small or are they just far away 😝

I have all my pre-orders on a spreadsheet, this month is my Class 50 Leviathan and 3 LMS 57’ Wagons, considering the Mark 2f for Leviathan but not made my mind up yet
-
The 57s have been on that date for a over a month
-
Hmmm have to do some thinking to see what the costs are and if I can fit it in

Wanted an extra one for more play shunting so decided in March to get the Green 08 as an addition as the 6 pins were due around the same time, but I cant justify in my head having around £230 of locos just sat there without any enjoyment. It’s good they ask why you are cancelling your order so they know the reasons why. Maybe the blue on will be back by the time they turn up fingers crossed.

No rules, running what a like with the guise of “Heritage Railway” East Mallingford is an eclectic mix.

It is a shame but as the 6 pin HM7000 decoders are now showing as September 2025, cancelled my Green 08 and separated decoder order. I appreciate they are having difficulties by I have had my DB 08 since the 12the June 2023 and haven’t been able to use it as my layout is Digital at this rate I will have had it two years.

I learnt that lesson too

I have no excuse of anyone but me wanting the DB Class 66 just cos I like the look and complements my 08.

I think by doing some analysis anything which is not due this year has dropped from the catalogue but is still available to pre-order. I assume to manage expectations.

Best way is to ignore them or block them and they will get bored as nobody is reacting to the bait just like bullies

I have a few bits from In The Greenwood built the oxbow bridge and platform straights got a water tower to build and then buying some relief buildings for the back of the layout

Hight clearance minimum is 45mm from baseboard according to club magazine. If memory serves me correctly but that was also early on
