How about a Dictator Loco Class? Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 What do you think of these? Done to measurements, rather than just some random bell or vague guess. The thicker ones are options for more strength or to be scaled down to N. I can also get the totally accurate one with a thin metal support arm so that its the correct thickness and strong. And they can come painted green and brass coloured too. Rob https://www.shapeway...bobsbitsandbobs My 3d printed bells have arrived. Get them to paint yourself from my shapeways or buy them from TMC if you like them. Thank you. Rob 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
royaloak Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Yep showing 0 stock on Locomotion so would safely assume it has sold out unless some pre-orders don't get sold and these come back online, you should give them a call if you want to find out the current status or try to purchase one. Well done to NRM & Bachmann for a popular model. Best get my extra one sold on ebay so I can retire to the Bahamas on the proceeds! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about a Dictator Loco Class? Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 (edited) Just been onto your site but it says they are not for sale It's been sorted. A new updated revised version is now on the shapeways site. And the TMC versions are in stock at TMC. Just call them or email if they're not pictured on the web yet. They also offer a fitting service or can weather your NRM version to prototypically compliment it's nice glossy finish and fit it's brass nameplates neatly.

RMweb Premium Hilux5972 Posted May 4, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 4, 2018 Just received an email saying there is an Evening Star box set launch on June 30th and July 1st. Price for the boxed set is £359. Looking forward to getting my hands on this set. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
srihaggis Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 (edited) For those who can't make it, I have managed to get a price out of Locomotion to post the set(s) out when they arrive, and have quoted standard rate £7.50 for UK delivery instead of going to Locomotion to collect them at the launch event. I'll be taking the postage option. Edited June 8, 2018 by srihaggis Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Hilux5972 Posted June 29, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 29, 2018 Nope still haven’t yet. Was hoping to as I had the money set aside this week, prior to it being spent on the car. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuarttrains Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 I will have all details for those who pre-ordered and how how to pay the box sets sent by Tuesday at the latest, the reason for the delay has been due to organising the Boxsets and delivery of the individual components to make them up which includes a special booklet on the history of the two Evening Stars written by our senior curator Anthony Coulls and also because I’ve had a few days on holiday to attend the Hunslet 125 gala and the 50th Birthday of the KWVR.

stuarttrains Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 The condition of the 66 is superb and is a real credit to GBRf, who we send our most grateful thanks for allowing the engine to attend this weekend and if anyone is in the area tomorrow please call in, even if it is just to ask where your Single is.

srihaggis Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 Can we pick up box sets tomorrow also? Really wanted to come up today but with no emails responded to, a 400mile round trip is too much an ask to just photo a loco that runs past me regularly anyway! I do have plans for tomorrow but if the above is responded to I might be able to change plans... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuarttrains Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 Yes you can pay and pick up your box set tomorrow just ask for Stuart at reception when you get here Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
srihaggis Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 Thanks but on the occasion it's a little too late to amend plans, i'll await further instruction to send it out via the post. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Hilux5972 Posted July 1, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 1, 2018 So who’s picked up their boxed set? Just watched a video on YouTube and it looks amazing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
b33fy Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 Really late to the party, probably too late, if there happens to be a boxed set left over, I’ll have it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Hilux5972 Posted July 2, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 2, 2018 Lol considering there is only 125 made and it’s been advertised for months now, I’d say yes you are too late. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

srihaggis Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Got my box set yesterday. Very nice, not unboxed the locos yet but the gloss finish on the 9f looks great and the wooden box is nicely stained. Very nice indeed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

srihaggis Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Quick snap of the 9F, not going to photo the 66 as we have already seen it. About the best I can do with natural light. Gloss finish not too intense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Hilux5972 Posted July 13, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 13, 2018 What’s the lining like on the tender? Too high so it almost goes over the curve as has been reported in the standard release? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
