In the true tradition of ”if you notice this notice you will notice it is not worth noticing” this post is an announcement about announcements announcing new products by both Hornby and Bachmann.
As I hinted within my That was the Warley that was post here Hornby will be announcing their 2014 plans at 10am on Monday 16th December and I will post a round up of those items of interest to Southern Railway / Southern Region modellers on here also at 10 am. Wish listing and frothing has unsurprisingly started on various online forums and it is always fun seeing just how far off the mark some suggestions are…
Bachmann in 2014 celebrate their 25th anniversary and will be holding events in July to mark this milestone. This year Bachmann will announce their main new range plans for the following 12 to 18 months to coincide with these events rather than the usual announcement at a trade toy and hobbies show in March.
This does not mean that there will not be other announcements made throughout the year and I will endeavour to keep you up to date on those of a Southern / Southern Region interest via these pages.
