Swindon 123 Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Robert, a brief note of thanks for your excellent service, particularly under the circumstances you have described on here recently : goods ordered on line late Sunday night and received first thing this morning. Very much appreciated; thank you again. Wishing you a blessed, peaceful Christmas and best wishes for the future. Paul Echoing Paul's experience above, I placed a big order of bits and bobs to stock up and they arrived very soon after! Excellent service as always. I must also echo the above comments. i also put in a bit order for a mix of stuff, that arrived this morning. Very good service. I hope all goes well for you in the future, Robert. have a good restful Christmas, and a healthy 2019. Paul J. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold RThompson Posted January 15, 2019 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted January 15, 2019 Hello everyone, thought I would keep you all updated with what's been happening. The website will probably reopen at the end of January, it's had a Minor makeover to refresh it but still easy to use. I wish there was a way to make the international postage added automatically like years ago but does not appear it will be happen as issuing invoices does add quite a bit to my day. The time off from RT Models has been used productively which some of you will benefit from. Test etches to be submitted next week in 4mm scale, 009 gauge Thomas Green 0-6-2ST "Barber" as well as patterns in a new mould. Dinorwic and Penrhyn end tipping wagons will be released as the drawings have been altered correctly. There will be a couple of unannounced kits also, these was planned 1 to 2 years ago after obtaining/given the drawings for these locos but in the last week or so I have finally got round to doing them. Also to be submitted for test etching is the 4mm scale 00/EM/P4 Ironstone dump car. Just going to get a few more measurements this week that was missing from my research years ago. If I've got time there will also be a few other scale/gauge releases. There is a few outstanding orders/parts from the Christmas period and hoping they will arrive shortly and posted out before I reopen. 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold RThompson Posted January 15, 2019 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted January 15, 2019 "Time off"? Sounds like you've been super busy lol You are not wrong Bucoops although for 2 weekends I have been on standby on rail replacement so rather than sitting there doing nothing until I'm called upon to do a run I used the time wisely to design the etches on the laptop. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaymzHatstand Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Welcome back, after what seems like an invigorating 'break' for you! Barber you say? I think there's a customer here for one please! I do like the vivid green livery the real one carries! Looking forward to seeing further updates and hearing what else you've got up your sleeves!

You may notice it has been refreshed, if it doesn't you will need to refresh the page or clear your cache. Some orders appeared after the website closed without me knowing because of this. I'm just awaiting some castings, wheels and more etches from various suppliers for some kits which includes outstanding orders. Hopefully in a few weeks I will have some new releases as well as test builds to show. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smashing, great stuff, liking the new look, looks like one of the parts I was after is no longer there in the bullied range... looks like I will have to think of something else for my project.

Would that be the lost wax brass bulleid Pacific brake gear? there is some left but the pins are missing. unfortunately I do not have the patterns anymore as the original casting company never returned them and they are no longer trading so the moulds I paid for have disappeared. i will need to do some more in the future but probably with the pins left out.

Yep, that's the ones, I got the order today, so thanks for the quick turn around, sadly I would of needed the location pins, as the old Hornby chassis is missing the rigging so I don't have anything to mount them to... so no worries I will just have to work something out. Thanks again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rope runner Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 The Dump car is coming along nicely.. Have you ever considered adding a lost wax safety valve cover with salter valve arms for the Hornby Peckett to your range? It would make a nice upgrade.

RMweb Gold RThompson Posted February 21, 2019 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted February 21, 2019 Hello everyone, the west country locomotive body has arrived today allowing me to test the original 8'6" square cab on it. The fit is very good, however the front of the cab needs altering slightly to match the body profile better. 6 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
