Who'd have thought that N Gauge could be this exciting? And all down to Revolution Trains!
The teases  :D

Well as they're clearly stating there's a bag with a cat in it, they'll have to put up with wild speculation until said feline is released from said flexible carrying utensil.  :D :D

That bag happens to be a horrible oversized TINGS rucksack!  :P
Mechanical issues can be solved with a hammer and electrical problems can be solved with a screw driver. Beyond that it's verbal abuse which makes trains work!!

Is a Cat engine, or a catalytic converter? So not steam or electric.

Don't know why this topic has gone so quiet we have a new powered model AND a new Wagon to speculate about!

:drool:

Having (nearly) delivered the TEAs and with the Pendo making good progress we are planning to announce another modern wagon at Warley too.

Cheers

Hi Gang,

Quiet for all of 4 days.....
As for the new modern wagon......it must be a car transporter.....that would be joined up thinking with the NGS Carflat....

And as for the loco.....???.

Ohhhh I missed the new wagon remark!

I am hoping for some suitable stock to go with the forthcoming Dapol Class 59.....Specifcally the National Power one?!  :drool:

Without further hints to fuel our speculation, the frothing has died down....


.... for now. ;)

Well, that's just not good enough. Some fount of all knowledge you are!  :no:  ;)

Hello all,

The new wagon that we are proposing will be announced at the Warley NEC show.  At the moment there are two contenders and we are just finalising the choice.

As with everything though, it will only fly if enough people they decide they want it!

Cheers

Ben A.

Ben, we all can help you with that decision. You don't need to carry the weight of responsibility alone.   :whistle:

My initial thought was a KTA/KQA pocket wagon, but I don't think they've got the breadth of appeal compared to something like the KFA, they tend to run as one or two in a rake, and Dapol do do an OO gauge one. National Power JMAs seem too niche, they're basically HHAs on LTF 25 bogies anyway.

I do wonder about the IPA twin-deck car carriers, but wonder if they'd benefit from having cars available, which would potentially make them very expensive. To that end, maybe the covered single deck ones would be better.

Alternatively I reckon something from the aggregates world, which are sorely under represented, maybe PTA or JNA box wagons, or JHAs, all of which would go beautifully with a 59, if we ever see one!

Ah yes, I wondered about MRAs. Could be interesting.

Judging by overheard conversations at TINGS, together with a folder left open with a rather interesting drawing, at least one of you is correct. But I'm not saying any more in case I'm wrong.....

I saw that folder too.... 😉

Just noticed I have a slightly out of focus snap of some dodgy characters, with that mythical file.....

@Only Me has sabotaged my post with an in focus replacement picture, so here is another attempt at posting for those who can't find it hiding under the 'spoiler' button above.....

Just want to put this out there, @acko22, is a tease and has been winding me up all day about the next wagon project, giving just enough info for me to bite but, I still no idea as to what it is. :veryangry: :censored: :veryangry:

Obviously all of those army secrecy lessons have paid off.
