Bachmann Announcements

[Roy L S]

Well having set the bar very low indeed I wasn't surprised by the outcome.

All there is this quarter for N is a few Scenecraft buildings including a 1930s semi and a public toilet, plus a police station and something else both in relief.

Nothing new in N for the Collectors Club members either whereas OO get a pair of limited edition LU red Class 20s....

So, there we go, for Bachmann their Farish N range is definitely fast becoming the poor relation it appears....

No new models announced at all from Farish.

There is however a toilet block from Scenecraft which rather neatly sums up Bachmann's interest in N gauge at the moment.

tending to agree with Roy. Lets hope iust was just luck of the production slot 'draw'.

Is the toilet block full or low relief?

Full relief, I believe.

I guess that's where all the big knobs hang out 

[Newportnobby]

  Eh? What? Whassup - did someone announce something? No?

No new models announced at all from Farish.

So it just remains to be seen what is arriving out of the previously announced models.

I think the plan is to get the previously announced models done and there's still loads to do if you look on the website and through the locos, wagons and coaches, once they are done, then hopefully we will see more new N Gauge models on these You tube announcements, so it could be a while yet.

Indeed, Mark.

We just need to wait for the accompanying "Also arriving this quarter" announcement.

If the plain green Warship I ordered 2½ years ago turns up it could be financially embarrassing as I have a lot on the go at present.........
Sonic 56xx x 2 - 2nd payment
RevolutioN Class 128 - 2 to order when the order book opens
RevolutioN Class A tanks - 2nd payment
Gaugemaster class 73
Dapol M7
Kato class 800
Rapido class 28

To say nothing of a new conservatory (mancave) roof!

True, we have just had one,  the class 40s and some other bits arrived, there's over 50 items in the catalogue that still need to be produced, most of those are existing products in new liveries and some existing loco designs being fitted with DCC sound chassis units. 
I will patiently sit it out and hope that Bachmann catch up on the backlog and start CAD designing some new stuff afterwards.

To say it's the Peak of let-downs is an understatement.

[osborns]

just received this encouraging note from the 'horses mouth'
I can also assure you that if you get asked and I am sure you will, Graham Farish has not been forgotten just wait until the Autumn launch, rest assured we have some very exciting models en route.
A lot more encouraging so no need to give up on Farish yet!

Just as well, partial relief would be most unsatisfactory for our tiny populations...

I should imagine that the summer announcements will always be the least interesting of all the announcements (who buys model railway things in the summer? Well, lots of people, probably, but fewer than in colder weather), and that the autumn and winter announcements will be the most interesting.

I shall look forward to the autumn announcement, and in the meantime contemplate whether the lavatory block will be suitable for my layout.
