TrainLover16 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 I am just wondering what the club loco for 2019 is, on the website it is the same from last year, the part in the catalogue says it is a Network Rail diesel. Which one is correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkingthedog Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Not sure when the club year changes. Might be April like the financial year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWR-Gordon-4 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 It’s a bit. My guess is that Hornby want to get rid of the 2018 locomotives first. I want the 2019 locomotive, so I am waiting to join, but I don’t want the 2018 locomotive, which is still the current offer. As the image that howbiman has posted from the 2019 catalogue says, the stock is due in July, so the 2019 locomotive could be added when they come into stock.

walkingthedog Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 so the 2019 locomotive could be added when they come into stock. GNR-Gordon-4 (HF)Well they’ll have a devil of a job adding it before it is in stock won’t they. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulleidboy Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 My Membership card says - 23rd February 2019 - I think that is probably the year-end for the club. I recall they were a bit slow getting off the mark last year with the new club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWR-Gordon-4 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 I thought each indvidual member has a different membership ending, depending when you sign up to the club. Not everybody joins at the same time, so ebveryone ends their membership in a different part of the year to another member.

Howbi Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 To my mind, Hornby are now legally obligated to supply the new 2019 Club model as advertised to any Member joining in 2019......it is pertinent to your contract with them on paying the membership fee.........HB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWR-Gordon-4 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 I agree with HB, but if you go on the Collector Club page, on the 'Community' drop down box and add the membership to basket (Don't pay for it of course, as you are a member), it adds the 2018 loco to the basket. They should have the 2019 loco there too, so you can choose which one you want. GNR-Gordon-4 (HF) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulleidboy Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Some years ago I recall the club loco being late, and when the next years membership was renewed I got the same loco again. I rang and explained the problem, they said not to worry we''ll send you another one - which they did. No suggestion of returning the duplicate. With regards the start of your membership year, are there any actual members on this thread, and if so what date does it say on your membership card?

Bulleidboy Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 If you look at joining, it says you get a "free 0-4-0. No reference to type. However I am of course aware that on other parts of the site it tells you what the 2019 model is. Before anyone starts a new thread as to when it will arrive - it says July 2019 - but this may change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howbi Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 With regards the start of your membership year, are there any actual members on this thread, and if so what date does it say on your membership card?BB.........the expiry date on my membership card is 23rd Feb 2019.........I have a diary note to rejoin on that date.........HB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWR-Gordon-4 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 @bulleidboy It says that now, but the other day when added the membership to basket, is said free loco gift of the 2018 loco. It didn't say it in those words, but something like that. It also displayed the image of the 2018 loco, so I will hold on a bit on joining, to make sure I get the 2019 loco. Hopefully when the image appears on the website of it, this should confirm I get that when the stocks come in and I don't get the 2018 loco.

GNR-Gordon-4 (HF)I've just run through the join-up pages, there is no mention of the 2018 loco and no image of the old one......I have no doubt that the Diesel shunter will be provided........... 😆.........HB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkingthedog Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 When I looked a short time ago it said words to the effect of your free gift is not available at the moment but will be sent when it is. Only other point is that is does say you get a 2018 membership badge. I shall join after 23 FEB as that appears to be the start of the new year.

NWR-Gordon-4 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 @howbiman Please read my last comment on this topic. The other day it dispalyed the 2018 loco in the basket, but now it does not. I have checked today. GNR-Gordon-4 (HF) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael_winstanley Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 21st Feb 2018 was when the new Collector Club started so we can assume that 2019 starts in about 12 days time? But you can never be sure with Hornby they do keep moving the goal posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkingthedog Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 I don’t see why it shouldn't renew after the 21 FEB. Both BB and HB have the same expiry date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWR-Gordon-4 Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 Perhaps that's when the 2019 loco will be added to the wesbote then. GNR-Gordon-4 (HF) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWR-Gordon-4 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 It's supposed to be website. Not sure what a wesbote is. You will have to ask my iPhone that! I kept retyping the word 'website', but it kept changing the word to 'wesbote'. I gave up in the battle and let my iPhone win with it's gibberish language, that it's obsessed with! 😆 😉 😀 GNR-Gordon-4 (HF) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkingthedog Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 When the text is changed by a phone etc., it usually changes it to something that exists not to a non existent word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
96RAF Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 ...and it usually possible to amend a custom dictionary (where these incorrect words have been lodged by a fumble fingered operator) so as to delete them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWR-Gordon-4 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Well my phone likes to change my typing to none existant words and I haven't got a custom dictionary set up. I just don't know why my phone does this. I must deactivate the auo-correction. GNR-Gordon-4 (HF) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
