XPT models will be very popular. I'm whispering in the ear of a O Scale modeler I know to do O Scale Red Rattlers. He knows they are hugely popular in HO. The IDR Hopper cars look awesome. Your lucky to do giveaway and have a website away from this nightmare site to pull it off.

I reckon so Leo! Ohh now that would be a sight to see! IDR certainly does some beautiful work!

That’s ok, love your work! I agree with your previous news updates. it’s time more companies update the way they deal with preordering! It’s hard not to feel like you may be missed for a big cash outlay. 😮

When I watched the first episode of model railway news I had my doubts and thought "this is fools errand, there isn't enough going on in the Australian model railway scene to have enough content and you would run out if things within 2 months. And besides who would even want to watch?" But wow do I stand corrected! I look forward to each months edition and they get better each time. N scale SAR redhens and 700 class steamer? Never thought i would see the day, amazing stuff! The hobby is supposed to be dead right?

I think I’ll keep my eyes out for those Victorian Rail streamliners. Likely to to get hit hard on shipping costs, because USA, but if I had to pick one Australia engine Victoria Streamliner would be it.

@@WillJamesRailways Prices over all have gone up here in the USA, that's why my model railway project has been in limbo since 2020, I normally buy model train stuff from Amazon using my Amazon Employee benefit to reduce the price almost 50% but so far on Amazon I'm only seeing USA brands like Bachmann, Lionel and Athearn, and the main UK brand Hornby, but absolutely nothing from Auscision or SDS. Originally I was going to do just a USA themed setup, inspired by the mountainous region of California I live in but I decided later on that doing something multinational could open more creativity.

Will, great news, thank you for taking the time to collate, and share. Certainly lots happening. I think the hobby is in good condition, and now lots of active vendors, and lots of exhibitions coming up. Cheers, and take care, Michael

@WillJamesRailways 2 күн бұрын

I would suggest shopping in store to support local business and it means getting help is easier! If you’re in Melbourne Trainworld or Branchline. Somerset, Orient Express or Junction Models in Adelaide, Woodpecker in Sydney was excellent
