    Rang hattons first thay said mallard on way. Then in a call a while later they said thay had no idea .then in an email it's been delayed. So witch one is it let's have some transparency. From your self hattons please so we all know where we stand

    Have done no reply so you can see why people get frustrated with them carnt you. And even if you ring them it's just we dont know.

    Well October came and went. Still no mallard and no message from hattons or email to say when thay be hear poor comunication.

    It's nice to customize your locos n stock my a3 looks 50 times better than the box standard job as do boath my a4s.so we should grab sum cheap coaches.make them as thay should be.

    It realy does seem that Heljan and the factory just dont care.bring back uk manufacturing.
  8. jay*bobble
    What a shame these could have been superb. Not what you would expect from Heljan .my be hattons could team up with Dapol .as Dapol models are a joy to own and run and you can get spares with out any fuss.

    Hattons got pr owned a3 for 630 and thay reduced the new ones to 579 makes no sence
  12. jay*bobble
    Hattons now selling a4s and a3 for 579 each no shocks there .

    What makes this an ideal project is the fact 66s have maneyLiverys .modern quite a long time span .exellent choice from Dapol.a 67 to complement it would be good.or even 68.good luck Dapol this is what's needed. Quality model competitive price. Modern vibrant.

    're a4 body removal not as straight 4ward as it may seem .seems to b some what easier if you remove the main threaded bar that hold everything on to centre drive wheel .remove screw that holds speed .remove don't bogie then there is a screw under the bogie and one on cartasie. There are 2 more screws under the back drive wheels remove these as well.take off front coupling. And gently remove you will have to prise the vallance. Over the cylinders. And the body should come away a bit tight mind you.hope this is of help
