N Gauge Streamlined GWR Railcar Kickstarter project with DJ Models

[trkilliman]

It's not something I would personally want but I'm sure there will be many people who will jump at the chance. I do really hope this is a success, as on the back of this more models could be announced. Wishing you the best of luck guys.

Got through and pledge made.

Wishing the project every success.

Hey Matthew,

Good luck with this - seems like Kickstarter is becoming the way to go!

Hi Ben,

Yes, I certainly hope so. It remains to be seen if the British modellers are ready to embrace commission production but I am hopeful. The combination of an iconic prototype and a (fairly) reasonable price will help it to fly.

If this project succeeds, it could herald a new model (no pun intended) of manufacturing and open the door to many other possibilities.

Matthew you have put it better than me..totally my feelings.

Hi Matthew,

I really wish you good luck with this and look forward to seeing the project succeed. There must be a lot of GWR fans who would jump at the chance to have one of these iconic railcars on their layout.

When I update my links page, I'll include a plug on the ERG Website.

it's utterly out of region, era and type of railway i'm building but it's a gorgeous model so signing up.....

now to work out how to squeeze in a heritage railway / or consider a railtour for this

Well, No4 is preserved. It has not been out of the museum for a while but it probably could do a Railtour with the appropriate mechanical work. No need to stretch Rule #1 too far.

Really pleased to see this project breaking cover, I think this should sell rather well. Wishing you all the best mate!

Now, anyone out there interested in running a similar project for an NBL 21/29?   I'd take at least 4!!

[Tank]

Good luck gents, I hope it's a success for you.

I really wish that i could support this, as I would really really like one.

But due to my main period of modelling being 2000 WCML. My current, pretty much non-existant, budget is tied up in the penodlino project.

Hope that it goes well for you and im hoping that it does go well and a second run is done when I have some more money available.

Pledge made! Whilst one is not desperately needed for Sheaf, one would make a welcome addition Plus its GWR, it'd be rude not to get one

Cheers,

Ollie

I wish you well with the project - I am sure it will be a great success.

Unfortunately [as far as I can establish]  the railcars allocated to the Wye Valley branch all had the later Swindon built bodies. The usual  workhorse was W30W and I'll keep an eye on the second hand offerings - I might be able to pick up a GWR or Green version if I can't find an early BR.

Hi Cycletrak9, get yourself one of these (W2W) and I will swap for a Farish Swindon built railcar.  It's sat on the layout in GWR livery.   

Yours, wishfully thinking, Delfin

p.s. I have already pledged for one and will be reserving the GWR shirtbutton livery. 

[cycletrak9]

Nice try, Delfin but it would still need a respray!

[MinZaPint]

Well I'm in and have my fingers crossed, should be a superb model
