Farish have just announced there will be a new tooling announcement to see at TINGS 2026 and they will preview it today at 12 noon

Not long to wait!!!

Yes, I had an e-mail from Bachmann this morning, I was wondering if there might be something announced for TINGS but quite honestly wasn't really expecting anything, so very intriguing.

Not long to wait until we find out what it is..

I'm hearing not something all new - just a variant or sub-class of something they already do....

Different version of the 20.

20/3

Yep, not one that fits with my own modelling interests but I would think the DRS ones in particular will go down pretty well.

[Bob G]

Can I be the first to say "Nothing for me here"? Evidently not, as Roy got in first.

And there I was thinking a class 15 diesel, or a Southern 4-6-0....

This has to be one of their easier wins and something probably developed at the same time as the Scottish 20s and the sound chassis. Just delayed to keep us on our toes.

I've always liked the sound of the class 20s and they seem to have replicated it quite well (as long as the horn isn't used )
I won't be ordering any, even from my chosen Batman retailer(A.I. generated sub titles?)

Holy pre-orders Robin, whyever not??

Let's hope something more transition era comes out of the main Autumn announcement, assuming there'll be one

The Autumn announcement has been and gone (Edit: New tool Class 37/7s with sound and some mineral wagons), it was last month, I think the Winter one is due sometime in November..

I did search for that but must have missed it
Trust Farish to make an Autumn announcement before the meteorological start of the season

Trust Farish to make an Autumn announcement before the meteorological start of the season

In August???
Surely with their reputation, that's more likely to have been a delayed "Spring" Anouncement...

The "Autumn" announcement, like all their quarterly announcements, is for actually existing products which they expect to be delivered in the following three months - in this case Autumn. It's not the date of the announcement itself.

And the remark about their "reputation" is a a bit unfair given the good record of the past few years. In the current uncertain situation for global trade and shipping they are no worse, and a lot better than, many other companies.

Thanks to Bachmann I was able to snap a few pics of the 20/3 (and 37s) at TINGS that will be up on NGN sometime during the week. These are long overdue in N!

I'll be having a green and a blue 20 with the recess for the Scottish tablet changer.  Also looking forward to the 2 car 101 with whiskers.  Loadsamoney for Arcadia!
