The class 37 is about a year away from being released. That’s plenty of time to decide how many liveries they will release and which ones. I’m guessing May 2025 as Mk2e coaches and 21t wagons have been move back to then. My personal take is a BR Blue and Green with a freight version of some kind.

Since seeing the green Class 50 yesterday I’ve now ordered it as well as the blue. I’ll be doing that much overtime to pay for everything I’ll not have time to sort my baseboard out.

I've got the TTA Tankers already and HAA Hoppers & IFA Container on order. That should make a decent freight rake or two or three...

2 of each for a nice long freight rake 😁

I have no idea on that, I just looked a really nice model. The release version could have it, I don't know.

Around ⅔ of the stand was devoted to TT:120

The class 50 video.

Class 66 in action with new wagons. Edited on my phone in the pub.

It does look good close up.

Not at all. I’ve not had a proper look at them yet. Literally posted raw. 😊

I’ve left and on my way home, sorry. From talking to them yes it’s still a may release. The locos are on the water now. I would have loved to see the duchess running. I did see the class 66 running tho.

Looks like the era 8 class 50 has a snow plough addition. Not sure about the other. The mk2f looks well, shame they didn’t have more to show.

I’ve started a new thread rather than keep posting in the Class 50. Had a good chat with Carl on the TT stand who confirmed that the Blue era 7 class 08 shunter will return in November. The new class 66 look great.

No just said it would be back November. When I head back I’ll ask.

More class 50s 😁

It’s coming back November. I spoke to Carl on the Hornby TT stand.

The class 50 & 66s look great

This is my 6x4 layout. It has 3 separate loops - 2 x express lines and 1 x local loop (slow traffic). They are radius 4, 3 & 2, the curve into the points is a 1. The long straight has a double platform station.

The HM7000 comes with a speaker if you upgrade later.

Like anything if the price was right and the model was detailed well enough ie direction lights.

fingers crossed then it will return. I joined the party just a little late to be able to buy one. I will certainly get an era 7 or 8 if they release one.

One question I noticed was asked but I never saw an answer to was the BR Blue 08 being removed from the web and if it would return.

I generally don't watch much of his videos anymore, like some other YouTuber they are anti TT and if I think it's unwarranted then I just down vote the video and stop watching it. I don't get the anti TT from people, if you don't like the scale then go or stick with OO or N. There's nothing wrong with preferring another scale of TT just like there's nothing wrong liking TT. We used to be allowed to have different options and views but these days whether its politics, music, religion, view on the environment and now model railway gauges its a case of if you don't agree with me you're wrong, I'm right and here's some videos to prove it.

Third time lucky! Went to Rails and bought one from there. They even tested it ran ok for me. Looks great with the Blue/Grey Mk3s. Just need my swallow livery back from repair working correctly and I'll be happy.

I had 2 era 7 HSTs fail straight out of the box, 1st motor just spun, the 2nd ran very slowly and the era 8 one has also failed in the same way as the others and been sent back for repair.
