Does anyone know if all the 77045 Brake Vans have satin painted bodies or have Bachmann made both satin and gloss versions?

I've also noticed that some Well Wagons are satin and others are gloss.

I was thinking that Bachmann could make a new range of Thomas & Friends locomotives called "The Real Thomas & Friends Collection".

The collection could use the body designs of real life locomotives that inspired the Rev Awdry to write his books. Bachmann already have the correct tooling for the bodies which they use for all their British locomotives.

The locomotives could have the same shiny painted finish as the existing ones so they would match the current line up of wagons and coaches, and the faces could be removeable so they could be used on realistic layouts aswell as 'Thomas' themed layouts.

The realistic body styling might also attract new customers who find the existing locomotive designs too toy-like.

What do you think?
