Hi I was going to ask whether anyone knows anything about the original design of Bachmann Gordon's express composite and brake coaches which were realised in 2006 item number 76049 is Gordon's composite coach and item number 76048 is Gordon's express brake coach which is still available because I received a email from Model Train Stuff saying that they are listed on the website and are in stock even though they were discontinued in 2012 according to the email from Model Train Stuff they don't knowledge the brand of Thomas and Friends but they have photos of them on their website however if you can message me back when you get a chance that will be great thanks Jake

Thomas & Friends / Re: 80th anniversary preorders when?
November 23, 2025, 02:35:24 AM
I found the model brands of Trevor the traction engine the brand is ERTL the 1st design of Trevor in his green paint and the 2nd design in his scrap paint from the episode Saved From Scrap BoCo the metropolitan vicar's diesel-electric type 2 is in his model design ERTL there was discussion about releasing him back in 2013 I remember looking at the posts and comments about him because he was in the original series 2 1986 episode Saved From Scrap all the way through to series 6 2002 CGI I remember buying the brand when I was a kid I still have the brand ERTL and I thought maybe this could be something interesting to mark 40 years next year since series 2 of Thomas and Friends came out on television however if you like the brand as well as the character and would like to see Bachmann release both models of Trevor in HO scale in the future in please let me know thanks
