Minimal wish-listing

[Newportnobby]

Any first-generation, high-density DMU.

There were a lot of them built, they were all round the country. I guess they are not glamorous enough for the manufacturers.

By using the chassis from the class 128, Revolution have a few to go at hence the proposed class 120

I have only just stumbled across this thread... A Minimal Wish List does much to concentrate one's mind! I'd go for:-
 
1) LOCOMOTIVE - BR Standard Class 4MT 4-6-0 (single and double chimney): a very useful model with a wide regional appeal.
2) COACH - Bulleid BCK Diagram 2405 - one can then pair it with the existing Bachmann/Graham Farish r-t-r BSK(semi-open) Diagram 2123  and make a useful two-car Set (Set Nos.63 to 75).
3) WAGON - any twin-tank 6-wheel Milk tank, for variety...

...and I am a Western Region (Eras 4/5) modeller, with a an interest in the Southern Region, but it seems to me that a GWR/BR(WR) modeller is very well served at present, and, yes, a "King" and a "County" (Hawksworth) would be nice, but the SR/BR(SR) is, as usual, very much the poor relation in comparison to the GWR/BR(WR) and is missing so much in r-t-r!

[Hailstone]

I'd go for:

GWR County 4-6-0
GWR King 4-6-0

Pressed Steel 3-car/Class 117 DMU

To these I would add:

GWR 72XX and 52xx tank locos

Maunsell SR King Arthur, Lord Nelson and  Q class 0-6-0

LNER V1/V3, N2 and EX GC 04

LMS Fowler 2-6-4

None of the locos that I have mentioned have ever been made RTR although some have been kits or scratch aids, and I would buy at least one of any that become RTR

Regards,

Alex

Wagon: IIA-D DRAX biomass hoppers.

Revolution have done them, and very nice they are too.

They are really nice, but at £40 each, putting a 22-wagon train together gets eye-wateringly expensive, so I'll be making my own. Given today's high prices that's pretty-much the case for all my future wagons and coaches though.

Ross.

I have a similar cost issue with container wagons for GBRf, might just have to get a couple of triple packs one pack at a time and run a short train!

Back on the wishlist, I would like a reissue of Farish 371-087A 25225 in BR blue please....

i would also like to see the 25 re released but also a Class 25/ 3

Since I can't find one anywhere and they are long OOP as far as I can tell, I'd love to see Class 37 EWS Livery produced again with current best-in-show sound.

[Roy L S]

I'd go for:

GWR County 4-6-0
GWR King 4-6-0

Pressed Steel 3-car/Class 117 DMU

To these I would add:

GWR 72XX and 52xx tank locos

Maunsell SR King Arthur, Lord Nelson and  Q class 0-6-0

LNER V1/V3, N2 and EX GC 04

LMS Fowler 2-6-4

None of the locos that I have mentioned have ever been made RTR although some have been kits or scratch aids, and I would buy at least one of any that become RTR

I would add to that: -

LMS Princess Elizabeth class (Lizzies).
GNR/LNER K3
Stanier Mogul
J26/27 0-6-0 (to modern spec now that Union Mills are no more).

[port perran]

For me the chief locomotive type missing from my collection which would have run on the sea wall would be a County 4-6-0.

A new model King would be good too but my two old GF ones will suffice for the time being.

[Newportnobby]

Steam
72XX
94XX retooled
Stanier 4MT tank
Crab retooled
K1
Std 4MT
2MT Mogul (78000)

Electric

EM1/2*
AM10 EMU*

Diesel
Any of DP2/Lion/Falcon/Kestrel (horribly niche, I know)
Class 15

*Would involve new layouts I'd also never finish

[Bob G]

I refuse to get drawn into this thread.

Rebuilt WC/BB
Rebuilt MN
ANY SR 4-6-0
Thumper
Class 71
Class 74

Pretty much everything I'm likely to want is already out there in some shape or form. My wish-list contains one item - a bit more money to spend on such things... 

Sigh...

Cheers,

Chris

Getting away a bit from Steven B's original post, aren't we?

[Steven B]

Just what I was about to say!

As a reminder:

minimal wish list of models either never produced, or not produced to current standards - one wagon, one coach and one loco/multiple unit. Plus one re-livery of an existing model

After two years, my wish list remains the same:
HEA
Mk2 BFK
Class 110

My choice of relivery would probably be a 37 in Intercity.

Guilty as charged but I don't require wagons or coaches. My loco list is my minimum
