RECENT RELEASES

Wombat Models released an HO scale, r-t-r NSWGR 30T class 4-6-0 steam locomotive at the Rosehill exhibition on the June long weekend. News broke via Facebook just before the exhibition that 300 models would be available at the exhibition, comprising saturated 3004 and 3065, plus superheated 3009. The entire batch pretty much sold out at the exhibition, with only a very small number of the saturated locomotives still available at the time of writing, two weeks after the exhibition. Another 700 locomotives, [numbered 3038 and 3082 (saturated), plus 3008, 3016 and 3063 (superheated), as well as 100 unnumbered] were expected to arrive by sea in July/August 2018. The models are currently only available via the Wombat Models website or at selected exhibitions. The model has been produced using the moulds manufactured for the failed Shrike project and, in a very generous gesture, Wombat Models have offered a very substantial discount to persons with documentary proof of having paid for a Shrike model.
