Tomix is releasing Gordon?

Gordon was listed in their 2011 catalog.

Is there any type of link you could post so we could have a look?

Can we get back to the subject in hand... enough of the snack talk.

Hello Sodor Perfection, how is your wonderful layout coming along?

I have made MAJOR changes to my layout, almost completely starting again I will have updated pictures soon.

Not wanting to nit pick but its Just.

I concur

Either sinister or devious.

Has anybody thought of suggesting Daisy or Flora?

I believe that without the British the whole world would be without many a great invention, but the same could be said about the Chinese, Germans, the USA...list goes on.

But your are right in saying that Britt Allcroft and the Reverend W. Awdry were British and that the steam locomotive was developed in Britian to make it what it is today.

Are you having trouble getting the Bachmann Thomas and Friends?

If so I live in Scotland and use a company based in Paisley called Trains on Time. Their website is http://www.trainsontime.co.uk/ and normally have the whole range in stock.

I believe this to have been a prediction.

I think you're setting your heights a bit too high. All of the above could be released over the next 4 to 5 years but never all in the same year let alone this one.

Patience is a virtue.

I was thinking about making a thread for this or including it in my Duck and Trevor thread...but that may have been a stretch. IMO  So I'm going to talk about my new suggestion for Bachmann in terms of rolling stock.  Since the main engine I want to see is Duck and accessory Trevor, here is my main hope for rolling stock....

The Red Branchline coaches!

Both Composite and brake coach!

Now I have some decent information about why the red coaches should be made, both profit wise and popularity wise. 

First of all the red coaches have been used in every season past season 2.  Out of all the classic engines from #1-11 have pulled the red coaches (except for Gordon).  So making the red coaches would be a really great addition as they seem to look nice by being pulled with any engine.  (Especially engines like Edward, James, and even Duck and Oliver)! 

Also the red express coaches have been discontinued...  This means we are only left with Annie and Clarabel, Henrietta, Emily's coaches, and the green express coaches.  The red coaches would make a great variety in the coaches for the TTTE range.  So it seems like a very appropriate replacement for the original red express coaches by Bachmann. 

Plus I feel that the red coaches are completely underrated... The only range that's really bothered to make them were tomy/trackmaster.  I sure hope that if Bachmann announces Duck and Oliver that we get the red coaches for rolling stock to go along with them...along with Toad obviously.

Plus making two different coaches is easy.  The brake coach is obviously different compared to the composite coach as shown here:

So all in all, I'd say that these coaches would look awesome by Bachmann and the sales will shine like gold.  I certainly hope to see this nice addition to Bachmann's HO Thomas range in the near future. 

I had a go at making the red branch line coaches, please see the link for pictures.

So are Donald and Douglas being released?

Thanks everyone for your positive reviews/comments.
