So I have just noticed Peters Spares have listed the latest sound fitted Farish Class 31s.

Strangely also the Network Rail version without sound, but no other version.

I have not seen any announcements from any of the retailers, but suggests they have arrived?

Interesting that he has all the sound fitted ones on eBay but nothing on his website

The non sounds which should have been first have been pushed back to next year to allow them to convert the first batch to all sound, they obviously found sound is a big seller now and want to get them sold first.

You don't need to point out my errors.  Thanks

They seem to be listing both the sound fitted & non sound versions on ebay...

Ah yes, those have been added after I started this thread.

Still interesting no other shop has announced these?

They seem to be showing up to order with a few dealers now, hope this is a sign that are now available and not just expected.

Have updated title of thread accordingly  :thumbsup:

Who is going to be first, ordered mine from Osbornes, hope they still have stock this time, unlike with the 8F

Anyone got theirs yet, if yes which one or ones did you go for, I went for the silent BR Green

Hi Everyone,

Just to let you know that Digitrains have received a shipment of new launch GF Class 31 models, including   factory sound-fitted versions.

371-135 and 371-136 just arrived from Cornwall. Haven't time to get them out of the box yet, but superficially they look superb!

Very tempted by the sound fitted large logo grey one & sound fitted blue one, although I already have 3 blue non sound versions.... :hmmm:

I went to collect my 8f yesterday and he showed me three different class 31's including a green version. I came home but decided to have a green one it looked so good, I have been and collected it this morning. Not sure what to do yet, not sure if it comes with a speaker, I might upgrade it to sound fitted.



Ps it comes with speaker fitted.
