Hi @charliepetty I'm trying to contact you regarding a 156 that I had to return in September. I've e-mailed you at the dckits address and have PMd you on here, but haven't heard anything yet. Many thanks.

The nameplate on 97201 wasn't in a fixed position and was generally only on one side of the loco, being moved by staff for unknown reasons. It also ran without a nameplate on many occasions. In not printing one on, SLW are catering for all prototypical possibilities. The loco never really carried a traditional style metal nameplate and previous models have provided transfers to best capture the thin plate that was used. I'm not sure what the original nameplate was made of. More details on it can be found about half way down the page here: https://www.derbysulzers.com/5061.html

Not sure if this has been posted anywhere else, but painted EP of 86034 here: http://www.kernowmodelrailcentre.com/p/60791/8656-Heljan-Class-86-0-Electric-Locomotive-number-86-034

Following an initial dispute by DJ Models of my chargeback claim on the APT, the company had 45 days to respond to the bank's subsequent defence of my claim. That expired on October 25th and I haven't heard anything, so the £162 seems to be staying with me.

It's got another coach in the consist that says "Thanks for the memories", with the date it entered and finished service!

I dealt with Lloyds Disputes for my claims (Halifax Mastercard). My APT first payment (£162.49) was made on April 5th, 2018 and a successful chargeback claim was started on 19th June, 2019. The claim was within the maximum 540 days claim period set for chargebacks. No Section 75 refund could be made on this as I had paid via PayPal with my credit card. My chargeback claim for the 92s (3 x £30) was rejected as it was outside the 540 days. Again, a Section 75 refund was refused as I had paid via PayPal. I sent a further letter stating that the chargeback claim time should start at the date the company had gone into liquidation, as I couldn't put a claim in before this, but this wasn't accepted. I'm not aware of a time limit for Section 75 claims. My letter from Lloyds says "the company" is disputing the chargeback, which I assumed meant DJ Models (or the liquidator), but am not certain about this.

Is that their light, medium or heavy weathering? It looks good; might get an RfD one done by them.

Someone more knowledgeable might correct this, but the short answer is no. The longer answer is D6109 was painted blue when it was externally a Class 29, but with original engine.
