Hattons has revealed images of the first livery samples of its forthcoming Genesis four- & six-wheel coach in OO. The news follows our recent piece in the current (March 2021) issue of Railway Modeller, where we took a first hand look at the early tooling samples, and put them to test in a short video.
Finished in Great Western Railway chocolate & cream, the seven livery samples showcase the intricacy of the livery application, with highlighted panel work and fine gold lining.
Samples as follows;
Four-Wheel Brake Third
Four-Wheel Composite (First / Second)
Four-Wheel Third
Six-Wheel Brake Third
Six-Wheel Composite Lavatory (First / Third)
Six-Wheel Full Brake
Six-Wheel Third
Images demonstrating the updated light system
Estimated delivery date for the products models has been updated to Q3 2021, though this is subject to change.
