Title: BachFar releases for August (?) 2015
Post by: woodbury22uk on June 22, 2015, 06:53:33 PM
One of the beauties of MRE Magazine is that it reports what is on the boat from China for release by Bachmann. Today's edition (22 June 2015) lists a number of new deliveries which will probably hit the stores in August.

Included are the first releases of the Bogie B van, more non-ganwayed Mk1 coaches, Jintys, Class 20, weathered sets of Conflats , and the Motorail GUV.

Many thanks for the updates. I have both a BR Black Late Crest 'N' and a 374-631 SR 50' Bogie B Luggage Van BR (SR) Green on backorder with Hattons. However, at £25.95, I'm glad that I cancelled my order for a BR Blue Bogie B. I only need one BR SR Green one for the overnight newspapers train from Waterloo. (The train that Sylvia and the Chelsea Girls often catch on Saturday mornings at 01:25.)

They look smashing. I especially like the somewhat overscale lace curtains :laugh:

A pity (but understandable) that they do not have the brackets for the roof-mounted destination boards on the SR and BR SR versions. I wonder if anyone has a scale drawing as where to put the boards? I have seen a picture with WEST OF ENGLAND NEWSPAPERS (I think).

According to today's MRE Mag the next container
That's vastly more than the previous container
Assuming the container left the depot, allowing for a slot it will be between 40 and 60 days to reach the UK, and then a further 7 days for distribution to retailers, so likely to be the end of September which was originally mentioned by Farish a few months ago

From this list it looks like three containers
It looks like the 47/7 and 20 arrived in the same one
It looks like the next one is two weeks away, and the final one is a further two weeks behind that
