Bachmann new releases

[Eric-B]

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

[Steve M]

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

[Mike Parkes]

?? 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/

[Hound Dog]

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.

[Steve M]

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

[Walkingthedog]

Me too Steve. Seems to be taking a lifetime.

[Steve M]

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?

[Walkingthedog]

Shall we do which year or decade?

[Steve M]

Shall we do which year or decade?

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