Friends, Coach has arrived in sunny Northampton!

It will take a few days to clear my rubbish ,wife etc. and then I will post some static images.

I do not have any landscaping but will attempt to gather interest with what I can muster!

regards, Peter.

Just wondering where the coach is now?
Has it completed it's tour now and.......will there be a new coach/wagon for 2016/17 ??

Not quite, the Tour Coach is heading to Midsummer End ready for the Dapol Collectors Club Open Day and Thetford Model Railway show at the very beginning of October and I think there is someone after me also.

If Adam @captainelectra could knock up some decals for a couple of wagons, then I'm happy?  Too late for a 2016, so perhaps a 2016 and 2017 together?

After missing Steven at TINGS, I'm off to the post office now!

I'm sure that won't be a problem. 😀

Hi All, I'm pleased to confirm that the 2015 Tour coach is still going strong.  It arrived at Midsummer End last week just in time for the Dapol Collectors Club open day.  A few photos below show her in the hands of N Class 868 at Midsummer End.  She also came out for a play at the Small trains event at the East Anglian Railway Museum yesterday.  Next is a trip to the Thetford Model show next weekend with a run on the Model Heritage Railway layout during the week.  More photos will follow but for now I'll leave these two photos..



Thanks to Tank and Malc/Peter for getting the coach to me in time for the Dapol Open Day!

Cool!

[Gary Burcombe]

If you're going to have two wagons, one could always be nominated as the 2016 wagon and the other for 2017?

[midsummerend]

I personally think it might be worth doing a 2017/2018 tour wagon instead as 2016 is as good as over now..  It's taken 2 years to tour the coach, so 2017/2018 for the wagon would fit well.

A 1975/6 one would suit my layout more!

[midsummerend]

The tour coach had a final run out today before retiring to Tank.  Today Midsummer End visited Thetford & District Model Rail Society exhibition and the tour coach came along too.

Here the touch coach has a run out behind Southern N Class 868

Thanks to Tank for letting the coach come for a last run out and I can't wait to see the next tour wagons.

Regards

Steve.
