New Mk2 Aircons on the way?

[dubscottie]

Was looking on the Hornby website to see when their planned Mk2D's in Intercity livery are due..

No longer listed on the website.. (R4462 etc).

Maybe there is a all new version going to be announced at Christmas (fingers crossed!!!!!)

Or maybe they are just throwing out the existing model and they have had manufacturing issues in China.

The model isn't a bad model, it just isn't a great model. If they do introduce an all new model, the price will go through the roof for it. Sometimes less is more.

I'd like to see more 2nd class as these were more numerous in a train. That's possibly where Airfix got it wrong...

Hmmmm...

They may not now be listed on the website, but i doubt where getting any new Mk2s from Hornby from December, especially after this release...

Have to admit, i doubt Hornby would be producing any new Mk2 Ds for us anyway - especialy after the Kader (Same factory as Bachmann) Murphy Models Mk2s, combined with Hornbys ever decreasing Modern Image range...

Fingers still crossed.. If they do come out in their current form they will probably still have the wrong shade of grey on the bottom. (Hornby thinks it cream)

I did not buy the Mk3's for that reason and ended up getting a load of Lima ones of Ebay!
