any n gauge , not had a chance to look yet
Does this mean the Thompsons will be in the shops next quarter, or just considered being made next quarter? (given the current health crisis in China I suspect the latter).
Not a huge lot for N gauge, is it?

As I understand it, what is on that list will be in the shops by the end of three months from now.

I would agree with that Scott, but I do suspect there will be some terms and conditions linked to "external factors" should any miss the 3 month timeline

You will both be saying there is a Loch Ness Monster next :)

I do wonder if the aforementioned health crisis in China will affect production across the board and delay everything from everyone!

Definitely, pretty much all of the model train factories have been asked/instructed to delay their re-opening after Chinese New Year to at least 9 February. The bigger issue may be getting sufficient workers but we won't know that until the factories start to re-open.

I think I've got more chance of getting the Loch ness monster in n gauge than I have the Thompson coaches.....

Happy to see the 319 looking a lot better around the face now and the 450 finally seeing the light of day!
Wonder how many vinyled 450s will be traded up for the RTR version? it promises to be lovely, if a little pricey.
Will a version in SWR livery be far off, as a few have now been repainted.
