It's and interesting technique, might be worth a shot. I'd worry I'd get what i actually ordered

I saw that!  What's driving that price?

Seems to be super hit and miss, I've never had an acknowledgement of a request to resize anything! I like the idea of ordering in OO though, I may try that.

I find it really surprising that Farish did the 60 (and now the 20) before the 37 got an upgrade. It's a decent model IMO, but crying out for a sound option.

One of the Clacton area group has a sound 37 with a file by Kevin at Coastal dcc.

Don't know how much it cost him, but about the best diesel sounds I've heard.

Quote from: msr on Yesterday at 02:36:02 PMPaul Hickman @DELTICNAPIER does a terrific job of fitting DCC sound to Farish 37s. He often lists them for sale on eBay but if you already have a favourite then he'll convert that for you.

He surely does. My dilemma: lack of unlimited funds. Nearly $500 to get one of those to show up on my doorstep. 

They do sound awesome, though.

Quote from: eddief83 on Yesterday at 01:30:49 PMIf a class 20 is viable for sound then a class 37 surely is. Just a case of when, the lack of models available suggests its in the works. It must be 3 or 4 years since the last run, just a shame it wasn't done before the cut back in production - see the way 90's and 47's flooded the market.

I do actually have a sound fitted Farish 37, a conversion that was worked on a couple of times by different people. It now has a Jamie Goodman sound file in it, and it sounds lovely, but I'd still like another in early BR green with split headcode boxes.

I think it is a pretty fair bet that either a chassis "upgrade" or a full retool are in the works somewhere as far as the Farish 37 is concerned. To be honest, I am slightly surprised that it was the 20 upgrade that was recently announced rather than one. Maybe they are saving it for TINGS (well here's hoping).

Hi @scorpion_1925 . I e-mailed Steve today ( info@railtec-models.com ) asking if he would be able to rescale something to 2mm and got an almost instant reply - so he is definitely picking up his mails,
Cheers,

Quote from: scorpion_1925 on Yesterday at 12:57:34 PMThanks, I will give that a try, was asking if he could scale down a set of 4mm decals, but I also know I do sometimes have problems with my emails because I use an old Hotmail address.

Hi Scorpion,

In situations like this I usually add the wrong scale item to my basket and theen add comments saying what scale I want them to be.

It's worked several times in the past, albeit with a delay before delivery.
