Prototype deltic

Post by Tom Quayle »

Bachmann are to releace a prototype deltic to be sold exclusivly at the NRM

A limited edition will be offered this month in a special case (£140)
A model in a standard box in january (£95)
due some time early next year is a sound chip fitted version (£TBA)

This I think is great news it is now beginning to show that prototypes can be produced in small batches with Both Falcon and DP1 now avalible and there is talk of the prototype HST

Information from Rail Express Modeller supliment.
The weather here is Baltic but so were the tank engines
Furness Railway and GCR fan.

See my posts on viewtopic.php?t=918 the 140 sets are all sold out, and I have 2!
At least one is going on ebay!

Must say the prototype 'prototype deltic' in the NRM Bachmann case looks very nice!

Not found out, I might ring up tomorrow and see if there's any left.

I only knew about the other one as I ordered 2 by email, then had to ring and pay, and she said they were sold out, so I had to explain I had to asigned.

Got a random phone call tuesday lunch time, so left it as I didn't recogize it.
A message was left from the NRM shop to tell me that Bachmann are late in supplying the models so the first one will be mid January now.
