QUOTE (Thunder @ 8 Dec 2005, 12:59)I would like to see hornby produce a the 9F loco with engine mounted motor, that would go straight to the top of my shopping list,

Erm...Why don't you buy a Bachmann one when they appear?-the pre-production ones were at Warley,-so Hornby are hardly likely to duplicate this!.

QUOTE (Bilbo @ 19 Jan 2006, 18:52)As one who voted for and was a little disappointed to hear Hornby are not making a Blue Pullman ,I wonder if the success or not of the Lord of the isles set which is a really old mould, will influence Hornby to then consider a Blue Pullman. I don't think most of us want super detail and many of us would buy 2 or more to modify the coaches to what we want.

Well,if Simon Kohler says Hornby aren't considering making the Blue Pulmann,I would have thought that would be the definitve answer,-So what's the point of going on about it in the vain hope that they might change their mind

If you really want a 4mm scale Blue Pulmann you should be looking elsewhere:-

The best thing they could do with that is melt all the tooling down for scrap...
