BRIO 2024 Predictions

[@twistedwhiskers8776]

I think some Amtrak trains would be nice maybe a Siemens charger or city sprinter

[@ivanthevaluable2559]

TBH, as an American myself I'd like for a Trains of the World variant of the Streamlined Train, but with one or two additional coaches and painted to look like either the Hiawatha (Milwaukee Road) or the 20th Century Limited. (New York Central) or maybe they could do both

[@BRIOAdventure]

Good suggestions!

[@ivanthevaluable2559]

@@BRIOAdventure Thanks. And also this is important to us 2010's BRIO fans... they need to enhance the Monorail Airport Set and the Steam Engine Set - I already have ideas for how to beef up both!

[@BRIOAdventure]

Love the monorail sets, on the hunt for some more track and the elevated station. I've seen a few others make their own monorail track from regular track which seems like a fun project to try at some stage too. Steam train wise do you mean age of steam theme?

[@ivanthevaluable2559]

@@BRIOAdventure Right, the Age of Steam theme. If you mean the one that included the 33036, 33030, and other steam railway sets, then I guess BRIO could combine those into one big set.

[@BRIOAdventure]

They brought the carriage back in the recent Christmas steam train set, and we have seen them re-introduce older pieces previously. We are still on the look out for a complete 33352 Dynamite tunnel, which was sort of in this theme I think 🤔 🧨

[@ultrabrio]

the magnet concept would be great!

[@thet00nedl00n]

The new Ravensburger catalog came out a week or two ago and there was a new BRIO theme: the dinosaur theme! Other than that, I was a little disappointed that we got no new models. You were spot on about the new 2024 model being a cargo train model, just wasn’t yellow. BRIO’s been really milking the metallic paint with their SE trains.

[@BRIOAdventure]

Yes, we were really suprised to see that we got this right, and if I had thought a little more about it then I should have suggested the metallic colour really over the yellow, still close enough! Yes, we have a video coming out soon going over all of these new items. It's one of the first years where we would consider pre ordering everything actually (except the paint train and all the letters). Arts n crafts are not our speciality. But the updated starter set with the new (plastic) viaduct bridge I think could be a good set, as I suspect each section will be that of a regular ascending straights (the old one was shorter) amd it looks like you will be able to split the bridge sections and place track between them, which I think will be a fun new way to get little ones into elevated tracks. Plus I love the train and Tunnel sets, so I'm here for the next TOTW London underground train too, but the dinosaurs look to be great 👍 I hope they come in Spring!

[@I_like_planesandtrains860]

Maybe the special edition could be a vehicle? Or maybe trains that you can colour with paint or felt tips that would also be good

[@BRIOAdventure]

I can imagine when they run out of trains, they will likely move to road vehicles for sure, not sure about next year though... As for a paint/colouring train I can see them releasing something like that as a standalone item, much like they did either the sticker train as it would be in a similar theme, good ideas 💡 😀 👍

[@BRIOAdventure]

Looks like your suggestion for a paint train is coming true...

[@devlinmaxan6778]

I'm hoping that BRIO would bring back the double track bridge as that was an amazing bridge piece, but also I'd love to see them make a salvage barge type of thing similar to the Crane Boat but longer and carries more stuff in it. I'd also love to see them bring back the Fix-It Shed since I really don't see any triple track sheds from other wooden train brands.

[@BRIOAdventure]

All great suggestions, we have the reversible green double track bridge and are in the look out for the grey one next.

[@Reinhard-H.]

Hello can you make a Brio layout with the sets: 33052 and 33079?

[@BRIOAdventure]

33079 is an older set yes? The port activity box? If so, we have almost all of the items from this set, so would need to just pick up a couple of bits first, but for sure that would make for a BIG track!

[@Reinhard-H.]

@@BRIOAdventure Yes, those 2 sets.

[@alexkane6707]

I am surprised you cannot buy extra trees, I think they would be very popular.

[@BRIOAdventure]

We would buy several packs!

[@garyewen1135]

Just discovered I want an H2 track piece

[@BRIOAdventure]

Its a good piece, just finished a layout today using this elevated off the ground. Its hard to integrate into simple loops with just one, need a pair of them really.

[@Cheeseeatingshark]

i think they should bring back the monorail

[@shegoeslightly]

A new Halloween or an Easter train!

[@BRIOAdventure]

A nice idea as the ghost train is really hard to find now.

[@FreighttrainDaniel1225]

Here are some of my suggestions if you’d like 1. Pete Marquette 1225 2. Dreyfuss hudsons 3. The Pennsylvania railroad k4 torpedo 4. Big boy

[@BRIOAdventure]

Thanks

[@FreighttrainDaniel1225]

Of course

[@Daniel-u9e1b]

Can brio make a smart tech ambulance train

[@BRIOAdventure]

Oooo that would be good!
