Farish new announcements 2016/17

[B757-236GT]

Hi Guys
Ive had it confirmed that all items announced will be produced so this looks like a Hattons problem. It would be very odd to dump stuff this early on considering its only been six weeks since the announcement and also some of the 2016 range was in production when it was announced.

This is looking more like a Hattons problem rather than a Farish problem.

Could a Moderator look at this now, possibly tidy or split this topic
I was about to reply that I am shocked that Farish are messing up with announcements, but if it is specific to Hattons then that is a different issue

Totally agree with this. When it's been established who is doing what, could it be 'sorted' such that the other party is not shown in a bad light?

I've  had a go at separating out the posts that I think are to do with Hattons. Please PM me if any are wrong.

I suspect the LM livery appeared a little too recently to fit into Bachmann's plans but I agree it would make a lovely commission to accompany the forthcoming Revolution 321, Pendolino, Farish 350 and Electra 323.

With the London Midland franchise now extended to October 2017, hopefully one day we will see the Farish Class 319 in London Midland colours. Significant joined up thinking needed though.

What do the night mail and day at the races train sets comprise of???  anyone know?

Night Mail: 47522 Doncaster Enterprise, Parcels BG, Parcels POS
Races: Green 3mt, 3x green horseboxes

Personally I want to shrink the two 00 sets. Especially the military set

47522...same body as 47535 (flush headcode both ends). Will it be in the apple green livery? I think an OO special edition was produced of it in this condition. Just outside my time period, being outshopped in October 87
But would be tempting...

Cheers

47522 was always on my hit list for locos to create, but as usual I have no use for the 'set' not even the TPO carriages I guess I can try and sell but it's a lot for a loco.

Well, after 18 months, looks like the 'Birdcage' stock has finally broken cover...

IIRC, they'll be available in SECR Wellington Brown and BR Crimson, neatly sidestepping the 'challenge' of lined Olive Green, so they can be run alongside the similarly-liveried Dapol Maunsells - bummer!

A pity, as from the pictures I've seen, the 'Orribly Oversized' lined Green coaches look superb...

Thanks for the picture, they look good.

According to the Farish website they will be available in SECR, BR and Southern Railway liveries

Great! That's changed then - for the good. Thanks

Thanks, that's good to know. I suppose it makes sense since they offer the N Class mogul in this livery.

I'd have thought they were aimed fairly and squarely at the forthcoming 'C' class
