Great news about the list of locos to be released and your company and employees faring better now
Being a GWR fan the Dukedog is a real favourite of mine
Such an anomaly in the 30's but a sound investment at the time
Would love to see the Duke, Bulldog and Dukedog added to the range
Perfect partners as you have to model parts for both engines anyway
Duke boiler with Bulldog frames makes a Dukedog

Model Duke frame to add to the Duke boiler you have a Duke
Model Bulldog Boiler with Bulldog frames and you have a Bulldog
Combined you have a Dukedog as well

Both the Duke and Bulldog where pre-grouping and grouping engines into BR days
So fits with pre-grouping, grouping and BR days
Double frame engines where iconic on the GWR
Love the grouping and pre-grouping additions to the range
Keep on steaming in the digital world

The LNER P2 is on its way. It was delayed for a long time due to reference material and drawings and research as well as the previous backlog of engines before the P2. Good things come to those who wait but you wont have to wait much longer, I promise . I do believe Rob and Tom want to make the Dukedog, Bulldog and Duke as they would be very easy to make using parts from each other but I dont know what the time frame for that is or if its planned anytime soon.

Hi Kris,

It does sound interesting, especially re the A8 and J38. Look forward to hearing more about the route you're building.

It will be good to have some more earlier models.

Can I ask will you be releasing them in just pre-grouping and the big four liveries?

Peter

We will release as many liveries as we can for all our models from pre-grouping, Grouping, BR and preserved ones.

Kris

Hi Kris,

A friend told me to ask you, but does this mean that the N2 will come with BR liveries? Personally I'd prefer GNR, as it already has, and also GNR insignia on the quad-arts? I think my friend wants the N2 for Weardale & Teesdale.

Talking of Weardale & Teesdale, I have been considering backdating this route to NER condition, as it doesn't look too awkward to backdate to either early LNER or, even better, pre-grouping. Another candidate I've considered is Riviera Line in the 50's, and to a much lesser degree the Brighton Main Line (Maybe only as far back as the 1930's...) and Chatham Mainline (The same), though those are harder. Not really much to do on the S&DJR, but maybe a signalling update/backdate. Anyone else got any suggestions for backdating to either BR, Pre-BR, or Pre-Grouping?

All the best,

Hi
I was wondering if I could add this locomotive to your Southern list please it's the LSWR Adams 0395 0-6-0 first built in 1885 and 7 were still in use in 1957.their BR Numbers were 30568/75/8,30566/67/30564/80.

I Can remember the Feltham ones shunting Hounslow Inwood RD coal depot sidings between 1953-56,there was also a power station there,but I can't remember if it ad a coal siding or not.

My Grandparents house backed onto the Hounslow Loop,at Chatsworth Crescent and overlooked the sidings and Inwood Park,

In the 50/60's the Hounslow Loop was busy with freight trains going to and from Feltham and the North London Line with inter regional freight trains,and also Feltham Nine Elms,other interesting Feltham locomotives were the big tanks the G16 4-8-0T and the H16 4-6-2T.

The electric trains were the 4 sub's both types Torpedo Front and Flat front,there were electric train stabling sidings at Hounslow just past Whitton Rd Bridge.

I hope you will still carry on making all periods,from Pre Grouping,Grouping through to BR if the locomotives lasted into the BR era,my preferred era is 1947-67

WELL SAID THAT MAN!!!

All the best,

P.S: Can we have a mainland (and modern IOW actually!) O2 as well? Pretty much the same above the splashers...
