There is a certain irony to putting a video series about modelling on a tight budget… behind a paywall.

My own layout cost a friend of mine at the model railway club around £250 to build. He played with diesel multiple units until his death and my purchase of the layout.

Excelent ❤

I have ordered two :)

Great video very helpful thanks keep up the good work😊

Looks really epic!

Couple of people complaining about controllers..... in the spirit of this series you should look into DCC EX, you get the same level of control and features plus accesory controls for about £60, so yes, this can be done. MERG is another option.

N gauge one also be nice 😂😂😂

whoever dreamed up that dreadful livery for the running stock must have been high on *****!

I still have my weathered, finely detailed RES, Royal Mail liveried Replica built version. I’m still happy with it. However, these look fantastic. I’ll definitely be looking to get one.

Would love someone to produce a Royal Mail 325

Lovely model. They weren't proper push bull vehicles an additional driver rode in the PCV and had full control of the brake he also had a power selector which consists of 4 settings. This does not actually control the locomotive it displayed the power selection in the loco cab for the other driver to operate the power controller. When propelling maximum speed was 40mph

So its £74 for each coach and an extra decoder to be purchased at possibly £35 ,to operate the lights. Get stuffed Bachmann. I can not stand you anymore. Pure greed.

It would be nice to see Bachmann produce a 64' non-corridor Mk1 Second that could be also used to create 3H 'Hampshire' units and (using the 2 HAP motorcoaches) some BR 4 EPB units......

Its a shame the errors in the Replica body and roof profile appear to persist here. Let me guess, retooling work was mostly on the chassis? Although they ran mostly with the super GUV, you can see in the video just how poorly they line up with what should be an identical profile super BG. I'd have loved this announcement to go with my 90s parcels rakes, but on seeing the product, hard pass.

They do look good, would be nice to have the EWS versions done as well!

I really can't see these models, nice though they may be, having much of a mass appeal due to the very specialised use of the prototypes. Although, as the vast majority of the popular ( and not quite so popular) prototypes have already been produced and re-liveried to death I suppose the manufacturers are having to go down the route of niche models just to keep sales up.

Is there any news on pricing for these yet?

Bachmann have developed a knack of making models that I won't buy. I would be very interested in a model of the Class 307 that the PCV was converted from, though. Sonic, Rapido and Dapol are getting most of my custom at the moment. I have only one Bachmann pre-order pending.

Hopefully in time EFE will put them through the shrink ray and make an N gauge version

Fantastic announcement!

Good to see matching rolling stock being announced as it’s been yeaaaaaaaars since they did them.

Although a nice model, it perpetuates the myth that BR Mk 1 coaching stock had cross-member ribs extending through the roof. I thought Bachmann acknowledged this anomaly somewhile ago. But now we have Royal Mail livery storage vans with correctly rendered smooth roofs contrasting with the newly introduced PCVs at each end with roof ribs.

A rerun of the bloaters please

Great announcement, look forward to seeing which models are being produced tomorrow

A LMS push-pull coach would be nice.

Well done Bachmann. I need to get one. 👍

Some GC stuff anything please .

😊

Plase T3.

The detail is amazing on all of these models and the features being incorporated in TT:120 are fantastic. Really looking forward to the release of the pre Tops versions 😁

Hi guys. Useful video as I have undertaken the extended version(both packs). Have to keep rerunning a few snips to get baseboard/etc dimensions . I was wondering if there is a track plan and track number stock list available for the 'as seen' video? cheers.

Nice review. I have 50040, it has enthused me towards the potential of TT

Those toilet windows on the mk2f coaches still grate.....hopefully Hormby will sort the next batches

So, is the class 50 too tall, or are the Mk2 coaches too low? Something looks really off there...

I have 50040, which is fantastic, but I needed to cut away my backscene at one end a little bit because unlike the 08s and HST, the 50s have a raised vent (or whatever it is) on the roof, which didn't clear the opening. It's a shame Hornby haven't released a mk1 buffet, which is essential for almost any mk2 formation.

Can anyone tell me what rolling stock the Green Class 50 hauled when in service in that livery?

I bought a Sir Edward Elgar class 50 . And it ran for about 5 times round my circuit then stopped and one end only spinning wheels. So i took it back to retailer who replace it and the replacement did the exact same thing. It runs fine then stops and wheel spins. So tomorrow (monday) i’m going to demand my money back. Obviously a factory bad quality control. 😢

Going to get one of these beauts

On the OO gauge Great Wakering, how do you prevent buckling in the summer heat and prevent gaps in the winter??

My nana is named after this engine . It’s why she lived it especially . I own an N scale model layout tho 009 can work on it if they want with ease . Considering there is no fennels to pass under and nothing h is properly stuck down . Tho I may not have any 009 slate trucks right at this moment I do intend on making a converter wagon to have it to couple N scale to 009 . Problem solved with one kind of coupler on each end of the truck . That and it would mean I can get kinda without needing to worry about comparability of the models . Tho I will ither go for the green with the tender or the black with the bunker .

It’ll never be a cheap hobby, I don’t know of many cheap hobbies - except watching paint dry . But once you invest the amount of cost per hour of entertainment is low

Only one long crssing and small radius curves available, still not worth buying into, especially with outdated loco's and rolling stock.

Dcc sound for 500 quid? the loco alone is is about 200 if not more! this video is misleading!

What's a Katina/Catina, or whatever the word was?

I fully support Accurascale donating to charities, best thing you could do, but another DBC Red 66 just isn't for me.

Nice and all but . Why tho I mean sorry but we already have 009 I don’t think we need this now Just make a new model for 009 like perhaps a single farlie engine I don’t think it has been made before . So maybe just make that for 009 and some festiniog rollingstock and maybe a kit building and that would have been fine . Not this tho

More modern image DMU's, please Accurascale. Class 185 TPE!!!!!!
