Model Railway Forum

It appears that this was a non-event, as Bachmann cancelled the update without notifying anyone.

Scrapped the event as they realised they'd not included steampunk?

?? There was an event today attended by a number of retailers etc and they have announced some previously unannounced reliveries and a new range of Bluebell Railway buildings https://www.bachmann.co.uk/hierarchy/ar ... uncements/

Wow - competition must be running scared with this line-up........ I generally like Bachmann products, but in danger of losing ground with this complete non event.

The V2 in development is the one I’m waiting for.

Me too Steve. Seems to be taking a lifetime.

Last I heard was a possible autumn release. Shall we start a sweep on the year?

Shall we do which year or decade?

If it’s not this decade most of us are bu##ered.
