Thomas & Friends / Re: 2012: Your Predictions
August 12, 2011, 05:42:38 PM
For Large scale I see that everyone is saying the next engine will be Emily. It would make sense as they have made the coaches but as I am a G scaler here in the UK, reading Garden Railroad magazine. It says Bachmann have brought out the Emily coaches to got with there new L&B LYN loco. They wanted some British stock to run with there loco and they realised these coaches, British freelance, under the Thomas range doubling up for two purposes, Who would blame them? I think if bachmann haven't planned to make Emily in Large scale it is a) stupid and b) by bringing out these coaches forcing them to do the loco anyway.
How every I disagree that she will be the next loco to join Thomas, Percy and James as I have been speaking to my dealer PLUS the UK rep and they have both told me that the next engine in the Large scale Thomas range will be Henry.

Box vans and brake vans are something that are needed and I hope that they are in the pipe work. Some larger 2 axle stock would be nice to see providing it is as reliable as the current stock.

Something I would like to see is Toby, I know some many people that would buy 2, One for the grandchildren and one for them to kit bash. There is defo a market there for them!

Thomas & Friends / What's next for Large Scale Thoams?

Hello all. I already own a large scale Thomas, Percy, Anne, Clarabel, Troublesome Trucks #1 & #2, Green coal wagons and I am waiting for a James & Thomas snow plough to become available. I think the range is great but does anyone know if there are plans to release more anytime soon and what they will be?
I am part of a team that runs the Charnwood Forest Garden Railway at Rothley Station on the Great Central, Leicester (England, UK), and the children love them. On children's events, as it is a large layout, the three locos are quite thin on the ground and others what really make the layout come to life in the children's minds!

Anyone who knows something I don't and would like to share it would be greatly appreciated!
