Still no RTR Southern 4-6-0s just two kits BHE N15, and Langley S15, an H15 can be made from either of these using a chassis with scale 6' drivers, a Nelson could be hacked from a Scot or Jubilee. Of the Drummond 4-6-0s only the T14 lasted for any length of time, I remember seeing an occasional one, the last one was scrapped in about 1951.
I often wonder who has my old Nelson, it probably found it's way onto Ebay or on sale at a show, I let someone do a refurb  on it and a few other SR locos in exchange for a load of chassis, bodies and other bits  I know an H15 found it's way onto Ebay so assume others did I never saw any or the requested refurbs returned, including a Nelson and Arthur as well as the H15

@Le Night ferry here is a Foxhunter King kit built 2026. I'm well pleased with it! It's built on a China chassis

King edward 2!
One of my favorite locomotive.

Dapol had made lots of GWR 4-6-0s, like hall, grange and (older and newer) manor class.
What if they release it-GWR 6000 King George V with its bell.

In the last 5 years or so, we've had 3 different proposals for a King seeking expressions of interest.

The only one who shared any information claimed to have reached 30-somthing percent of the numbers needed to be viable; we can assume the others achieved less than that...

That strongly indicates that the supposed demand is not there, just a few albeit rather vocal modellers, unless you can provide irrefutable evidence otherwise...

So for those who state a desire for a King, the question has to be did you submit an expression of interest for any/all of the proposals?; and if not why not?? Was it an aversion to the suppliers, a mistrust in their funding methods, the price point or something else??

DJ Models, KR Models and who else for the King?

Personally, I think it would sell, but then it's not my money being invested (and I might think differently if it were)!
