The brown sticky stuff might strike the rotating thingy before Xmas chez Nobby

[Newportnobby]

Having seen today the Osborns/Cheltenham Models limited edition Westerns may arrive in November I'm also expecting the Gaugemaster/Dapol class 73, Farish 8F, 2 x 56xx from RevolutioN/Sonic and possibly, just possibly, having to pay deposits on a couple of Class 128s from RevolutioN if the order book opens. This could be a very expensive last quarter to 2020 on top of a Dapol Hall and a dummy class 121 I've recently bought. Just as well I'm not going out much so meals out, petrol etc are well down.
I dare say some are in a worse/better* position than I am??

Shurrup!

I'm trying not to think about the Osborne's Western, the 8F, the Sonic, Class 128 and the two locos that are currently in someone's paint shop, oh, and god forbid Hattons wheel out the Beyer-Garratt!

Don't worry Mick. I'm sure your family will come up trumps with the gift vouchers again

Having had to cancel one Revolution order I am not in a position where I have lots of stuff ordered but not paid for.

On the immediate horizon is the NGS Hunslet, so the balance for that will need to be paid.

Hopefully in the first half of next year is Dapols 50149, but I have no money tied up in that (just a request that I want to honour).

My problem is the amount of stuff I would like that I can't afford and therefore will pass me by only to get more expensive:

C-Rail FSA / FTAs
Revolution PFAs
Farish Intercity MK2s
Farish refurbished 31s

Plus any number of existing releases that are out there....

Oh well, maybe a lotto win

Trouble is, Joe, all the above is likely to be before Chrimble and I've already spent ½ my birthday vouchers.
It's not even as though I could sell body parts as they are all too knackered

At the moment I have only the Sonic on order.  I was planning on a Class 40 and 55 "St Paddy" but decided to hold off for now to see how Q4 plays out with regards to CV19 etc.

On the positive side, it is great to see a raft of British N Gauge releases.

Kind regards

Paddy

Aw crap!

Three Hunslets!

:'(

[JonMann]

Yeah, the coming months are going to be expensive.

I currently have on order an 8F sound fitted, the Sonic models 56xx, the Hattons Beyer-Garratt (have a feeling that won't be for a while), HST Final Days set, Flying Scotsman and Mallard.

Would like to add a Western (not sure which colour), Class 128 once orders are up, a 142 Pacer and many more that are in my Rails wishlist.

Forgot to add would like a NGS Hunslett once they go on general sale for members as I forgot to order one.

I'm in for eight Revolution 92s.  I can't even remember how many I've paid up front for. I've booked one in with Mercig too for renumbering and weathering. That's going to hurt...

Beyond that I'm actually not too 'exposed' thankfully, although must get in a few orders for FSAs, and the next batch of Pendolinos may not be far away (hopefully) **pulls anxiously at collar**

Have you not learnt the difference between the character "3" and the character "8" yet? 
Must be some mistake, surely (dont call me Surely).

[njee20]

Yeah... I just really like 92s. Didn't want to miss my chance. Repeatedly. 

One isn't even from Revolution - I got non-buyers remorse on a second Caledonian Sleeper one, so agreed to buy someone else's!

Good news. Checked through my emails, turns out I've paid £75 upfront for each of my Hunslets. That'll soften the blow. Although I never did order the maroon one...

...or one of the oil company ones...

...aw nuts.

I'm in for eight Revolution 92s.

The problem (or benefit) with that is they'll all turn up at the same time. At least mine may be spread over a couple of months although the dosh will still vanish by Xmas.
I'll still be left with some RevolutioN wagons, the class 128s and a few Farish bits next year.
The Dapol Bulleid light pacific? I'm thinking that's just a fictional thing now

[njee20]

Mmm, yes, my credit card is acutely aware of that fact, and is quivering in fear. I was worried the IPAs were going to come at the same time. Then I'd have been selling organs!

[gc4946]

I've ordered Revolution Trains' Silverlink 321 and Transpennine Mk5As but fully paid for.
Otherwise I'm now waiting for Farish's Mk2f BSO and TSO in Intercity livery and Dapol's Maunsell high-window TK to be charged to my card.
