Title: RevolutioN Trains - what happened to the Electrostars?
Post by: Thebaz on December 14, 2024, 12:19:41 PM
Pertaining to the subject line - what happened? Hattons(Rails) even has them listed on the website. I've been wanting to get a class 375/6/7/87 for years - suspect I'm not the only one.

They're still coming.

As usual Revolution's projects page is the source of the latest info: https://revolutiontrains.com/projects/

This shows as "CAD corrections". It's a huge fleet with a lot of intra-class variations, so I'm sure they're just taking time to get them right.

I also can't wait for a 377 or five!  :D

Bus replacement service?  :)  I'm sure they'll be worth the wait!

I think we are unlikely to find a modernish N bus to replace the train anywhere outside central London.  :no:

Ah, I didn't know about that page. Will keep tabs on it from now!

I look forward to introducing the long-awaited Brighton-Wimborne service on my Broadstone Junction layout  :D

Revolution have added a selection of Electrostar units to their shop inventory.

Two South Eastern class 375 4 car sets somehow fell into my shopping basket!
