Quote from: bluedepot on Yesterday at 11:56:29 AMhow much of the tooling is new?

is it a completely new chassis?

it does still seem to be sitting a bit too high but maybe that's not the final version

Hi

The usual reason for the larger gap is so it will go around sharper curves than the prototype. It is possible to lower the body on the chassis with the older versions if you have more generous curves so it might be possible on these.

Cheers

still no 25/3  :(

the 37/7 and 24.5t wagons are good additions though

i may be tempted but i'll wait and see what they look like

Happy to see the 37 get the sound upgrade.

I was half expecting the 4MT to return soon - probably closer to the Fairburn tank release to be honest. I was half surprised it didn't get a sound upgrade too and the preserved 80135 in BR Green didn't feature

So pleased to see these released at long last.

Something doesn't look quite right with them though. It could be angle of the photos but the fuel tanks look a bit small and there's still a sizable gap between the body and bogies. Overall they don't appear to have the 37 "look".





I wonder if the new sound fitted chassis will fit the non sound bodies released a few years ago.

A nice mix of steam, modern and wagons. I'm so pleased to see sound fitted 37s at long last.
