Welcome back! If you keep prices as competitive as previously I will look forward to being a customer again. More Southern stuff please (I did buy six of your Adams Radial tanks in various liveries) - how about the Adams 0395 Class (nice simple 0-6-0 goods engine, that appeared everywhere, and lasted forever).
I am very pleased to see you are pushing forward again with lots coming. One additional thing that I would really appreciate is to be able to buy a replacement motor for your Dean Goods loco.
Looks brilliant and glad to see you pressing forward. I'll take at least two of the pilarch wagons, two cranes and a re-release of a J27 as at the NYMR!
Thanks guys, very pleased to see new products arriving, especially the J26 and the crane. A question though about spare parts, where can I get a new motor for one of my N7 locos?
At last the 7 planks are coming ! One of each Big 4 for me please. Also, the GWR Totem and the crane are something that interest me, good idea to have those models. Your 12 tons are nice, I might get one... To be continued !
Great stuff! It would be great if you sold your wagon wheelsets seperately - as they are non-magnetic, they are a boon for anyone using Kadees or any other magnet based uncoupling system. I'd buy I ton of them! Also - any chance you could release that 3 plank LMS crane runner wagon as a seperate model?
Hi, unfortunately the details from the Fordson's ran on to the tankers, what year were these introduced? Looking good! Looking forward to seeing yet more Oxford Rail running on my layout.
Would be wheel sizes and spacings of the Adams Radial Tank match close enough to the Marriott C17 (M&GN Class A) Atlantic Tank Engines that it could be modelled on the same chassis only needing a new Upper body?
Totem A. Used for transport of gun barrels for the Navy? Would require possibly 4 off of these wagons and barrier flats for a long gun (52 ft for 18 inch gun barrel)and require nearly 90 ton capacity over the two wagon supporting the gun, both with pivot one fixed one sliding (to get round corners) supporting the loads Airy points for minimum deflection.
There was only 1 totem A ever built '41910' and it was used for transporting cast iron. It was later modified and used up at Ebbw Vale to transport steel rolls.
@@briancooper562 Definitely not. Not big enough. Totem A was a one of vehicle, if memory serves me correctly. You would need Crocodiles or Pollen Sets for gun barrels.
Looking good. I'll certainly get at least one Totem A (probably 2: one in pre-1904 GWR and one in BR grey), plus I'm thinking about getting a few more Pilchards and the flangeways short Salmons for a BR steam era engineers rake. When will we see a NER liveried J27?
OXFORD RAIL & NEM EUROPEAN STANDARDS ISSUES ! All well and good for the NEW products shown here ! BUT and its a big but. Has "Oxford Rail" yet learnt the meaning of the NEM standards requirements ? And I'm referring primarily to the NON Standard NEM pockets I found on the 6 wheeled GWR Brake vans. Which because I use the European NEM version of the American Kadee Buckeye auto magnetic couplings (Their Cat Nos: 17,18,19 & 20). All designed to fit the Standard NEM pocket. As are ALL European Manufacturers couplings except it seems "Oxford Rail". These otherwise very nice GWR Brakevans, had to be rebuilt just to fit the couplings !!! Okay I'm aware that the NEM Conference held around 1989 in Germany, to set (Agreed) Standards for all European Manufactures. Predates Oxford Rails entry into the Model Railway market. But that Conference was held at that time, to dispense with the minor technical differences between manufactured products. Which were a previous Marketing ploy to gain "Brand Loyalty". Which had been identified by the end of the 1980's as itself now becoming a serious hinderance to sales of "All" ranges. Hence wheel standards and profiles had to be altered, as well as Rail and pointwork standards to also accommodate the then newly proposed Code 75 rail in "OO" & "HO". A standard coupling for European Models could NOT be agreed, so a standard coupling Pocket was the next best thing ! Hence the so called "NEM" coupling pocket. Where of course both the height & size of the NEM pocket are critical measurements !
My experience is that most are of a very iffy interchangeability with minor variations in the dove-tail a regular problem. Then for me if it doesn't fit I can easily modify, not always easy, but when you NEM modify Triang, Wrenn I suppose nothing is a big problem, just slightly frustrating.
@@dad1ipms Exactly the reason for the original Conference, to get rid of such problems. Especially as many of todays modellers don't even seem to know what a Swan Morton Scalpel is for !
@@dad1ipms Scalpels are sharper than any "craft knife", and you can have them in three sizes, with variously different shaped blades. Scalpels are of course intended for Surgeons conducting Operations on Humans in Hospital Theatres !!! Hence you seem to have proved my previous point !
Great range of wagons Oxford Rail well done. But your Wagons was amazing much better choice steam train wagon there Hornby Model Railways 2025 range Hornby should be taken note. Love of look of GWR totem never known there before today. Love we are getting liverys 1904 days to Br days. As give people so many choices depending on the era there are models. Being a big fan of ERA 2 love to see odd wagon like GWR totem but could do HR. Plus never seen unpainted wood wagon before in oo scale ready to run looks amazing. Would love to see more wagons in unpainted wood. Look at this wagon in the future in OO scale (HR 6-wheel brake van, Br 20t Prestwin diag, BR 22t Conflat P or any HR wagon)
Hi mukka, I believe they are actually owned by Hornby who bought them out a few years ago! Like Lima, Rivarossi etc Hornby owns most model railway manufacturers but they keep the names going for business purposes. Surprisingly the prices are not roo bad. 😮 Regards from Oz.
@GaryNumeroUno I thought they just took the models and were going to release them in Hornby packaging. I wonder if this is good for the Oxford Rail spares situation? Hornby are pretty good on that front...
@RJ-fn7mf oh... I know Oxford Die-cast was sold back to the original owner but I thought the Die-cast branch are only modelling road vehicles and Hornby kept the railway arm. Who knows with all this corporate wheeling and dealing! 😂 Cheers though.
Yes Oxford! Outstanding stuff - well done guys looking forward to it all!
Thanks for the update. Can't wait for some of these to be released.
Nice to see you back I'm looking forward to the J26 and another run of the N7 would be nice and for the future a LMS Loco would be welcomed
Ohh my! That Cowan Sheldon steam crane 😍
I can't wait for the Cowen & Sheldon Crane!
Welcome back! If you keep prices as competitive as previously I will look forward to being a customer again. More Southern stuff please (I did buy six of your Adams Radial tanks in various liveries) - how about the Adams 0395 Class (nice simple 0-6-0 goods engine, that appeared everywhere, and lasted forever).
Total A what a great wagon to do. I will definitely buy a couple. Also looking forward to the J26.
How about another run of N7s.
Great update. The j26 is looking good and some nice wagons on the way
I've been enjoying my Oxford Rail LNER Black N7 and would definitely enjoy a J26 to accompany it. That lined red livelry looks great!
I can’t wait for the Cowans Sheldon crane, thank you for the update ❤
I am very pleased to see you are pushing forward again with lots coming. One additional thing that I would really appreciate is to be able to buy a replacement motor for your Dean Goods loco.
Definitely a different way of announcing which is different but also a way of hopefully not missing some things announced
Welcome back Oxford, I have seen several Items I will be buying already
Please bring back some of your previous products. I would particularly like some more Tilmanstone Colliery wagons.
Some very interesting vehicles there, i am really looking forward to see the Sheldon crane...
Could we see loads for the Totem A’s? I’d love to see the big anvil or other loads available either with the wagon or separately
Ohhh I am so keen for the crane, I'd been waiting for ages for one!.... ok it's probably going to be two
Definitely got to have a Cowans Sheldon crane and would love to see more pre grouping models - particularly GCR please 😊😊👍👍

Great news, looking forward to seeing more Oxford Rail products
Thanks for the update. The crane looks great.
Nothing for me this time but hopefully we'll get something more modern (90s onwards) next time!
Honestly mildly thankful for the J26 delays, gives me time to save up for it
Thank you Oxford for this update!
Mmm, those J26’s look nice
Whatever happened to the 35t GLW tank wagons?
Hi, unfortunately the details from the Fordson's ran on to the tankers, what year were these introduced? Looking good! Looking forward to seeing yet more Oxford Rail running on my layout.
Woops 😅
Are you asking what year were the shunters introduced or do you mean the 12T tankers?
@GwionRhysDavies Hello mate, the tankers
Totem A looks interesting. I like the crane too but would prefer GW match wagon. Small note, tractor captions appear under tank wagons too.
Oh balls 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Would be wheel sizes and spacings of the Adams Radial Tank match close enough to the Marriott C17 (M&GN Class A) Atlantic Tank Engines that it could be modelled on the same chassis only needing a new Upper body?

@GwionRhysDavies Thanks, the old grey matter still works then. It's many a long years since I had reference books for modeling 👍👍👍
Looking good, definitely a totem on my wish list.
Can we have some wagons to go with the Rail gun?
Looking good. I'll certainly get at least one Totem A (probably 2: one in pre-1904 GWR and one in BR grey), plus I'm thinking about getting a few more Pilchards and the flangeways short Salmons for a BR steam era engineers rake.
When will we see a NER liveried J27?
What's happening with the 20 ton Esso tank wagon similar to the dapol kit's they were going to introduce three years ago,😊.
Any TT120 plans would be nice.
Disappointed at the delays to the P2 but it really helps with my budgeting to know it's at least 3 months away.
well done now free of hornby shackles we will get a lot more 4 all of the big four that last wagon yes want that and crane cant wait

What about a ready to run ex ger j17 model
Crane looks good but some post 1980 wagons would be good
Oh! i thought this was about the station bridge!
Waiting patiently for the Steam Crane.
Interesting announcements!

OXFORD RAIL!! USE YOUR DEAN GOODS TOOLING TO MAKE THE OUTSIDE FRAME 2361 CLASS AND MY WALLET IS YOURS!
I didn't think Oxford Rail was still a thing!

God I wish you have ware house In Canada so that I can order your stuff without setting fire to my money
Why no tt120 stuff? Shouldn't oxford get in on that as they produce cars for that scale?
My wish list:
OO Gauge Conflat 'P' Container Wagon
OO Gauge 25 Ton Anhydrite Hopper Wagon
OO Gauge Cowans Sheldon 30-ton Breakdown Steam Crane
Oxford please can you make a metropolitan railway A Class
You could make oun buy modifying a Adams radial chassis
I'm underwhelmed . . . . I'm curious to know your FD's view of future sales and profitablity . . .
Give them a chance, They’ve only just got back on their feet after being under Hornby’s rule for the past several years.
