Title: Revolution Pendolino - 5 car sets in second batches?
Post by: BrakeCoach on July 09, 2021, 01:54:17 AM
I might be slightly late to the party, but is Revolution releasing the 5-car sets of the newer batch of pendolinos along with the prototypical 9 and 11-car sets?
I don't think I could fit a 9-car set anywhere, not to mention the price so I am thinking of getting a 5-car set if available, but I am not sure if they are releasing them this time too.

And I wonder if they are also releasing the 2-car addons that they produced as well.

Anyone have any information on this? I am trying to look if there were options for those, but it seems like the retailers for these only sell 9 car and 11 car sets.

Thanks.

They are not.
The 5 car sets didn't sell well, so just 9 & 11 car versions this time round.

Yep, no two-car add-on packs either. Buy a 9-car and try and sell a few coaches!

No to both - they were the least popular of all the sets and the price reduction of 5 vs 9 isn't much.

Our order book closes last week so that production can start but they will be available from some retailers.
