Won't be interested myself.  I already have 2 green, one blue and one Freight Grey to meet the needs of my 2 small layouts.  Now if they had come out with a 105 DMU in green and blue I would be placing my order for one of each with Tim at Arcadia.

Well, if you will insist on eating as well...

Having only recently started acquiring a (very) few diesels into my roster under Rule 1, I may well get one as they do look rather nice... Basically I am always happy to see any British N announcement no matter what.

Actually what I would like now is an RTR L&Y loco as I have just completed a short rake of L&Y wagons and don't want to have to build a loco to pull those which.... would only be built on a roundtuit basis anyway....

You can, Scott
On the video from 3.48 to 4.20 approx.

If that isn't the sound then its a very noisy loco!

I will leave you to decide if you like the sound.

That's on me for not watching!   

Quote from: bluedepot on Yesterday at 02:17:30 PMI wonder how much of the tooling is actually new??

Apart from the chassis block, space for a speaker, and new PCB, I suspect the only other tooling change is an additional tool for the deep window cab, plus or minus the tablet catcher, and plus or minus the tablet catcher recess. If I remember correctly, the cabs are separate from the body on this model. So the rest of the body tooling should be the same.

I know: duh!!

I just bit-the-bullet and tallied what I've spent the last two months to get (pretty much) everything I need for Black Douglas Vale...

 

This doesn't include expenses from 8-12 years ago (mostly locos) already spent.

i should think they will announce some non tablet catcher dcc sound versions as well in due course.

maybe 20/3s as well.

a central services red/white livery version would be nice!

Rails' email says minimum R2?  That seems disappointing for a reasonably short bogie diesel that plenty of folk might want to send round their 9" curves?
