We only have non-sound DC/DCC ready left of 59101 in Heidelberg livery left. cheers Mike

Ahoy Oldshaw fans! Our next outing with the layout is this weekend at the Calne Model Railway Show organised by the Bentley Model Railway Group: https://www.bmrg.org.uk Cheers Mike

Trains4U have some versions as do C&M I think. cheers Mike

Hi You don’t mention which scale or which version you are looking for but some of our retailers still have small amounts of stock. We’ve no imminent plans to rerun them but I’m sure we will at some point. Cheers M

Yes, just email the support email address in the instructions. cheers Mike

The OO ones haven’t been offered to retailers yet as we are still offering pre-orders at a discounted price until we get the OO deco samples. However retailers will get them in due course. cheers Mike

Thanks for the heads up - it looks like (some/all) retailers didn’t get my email about the N gauge Cartic4s (and N gauge Caroline). We’re working with retailers (and the factory) to make sure that we can supply them. cheers Mike

As today’s newsletter says, for practical reasons our order book will be open for a few days (we rarely close it straight on the deadline) so at least until Wednesday. We will be asking retailers to give us final numbers by Friday. cheers Mike

Good news Cappagh JNA fans - I think that Hornby Magazine/Key Model World have reopened their order book! Cheers Mike

We don’t sell models that our retailers have when the models have arrived. I’m not sure if any of our retailers still have stock (I suspect the Alcan branded versions will go most quickly as they were the most popular versions) - it might be worth trying some of our retailers without e-commerce websites or that might not have listed them yet. I’d try Trains4U, Craft Hobbies in Barrow, TTC or Coastal DCC (in no particular order!). cheers Mike

The standard release VTG blue is darker than the Cappagh/DC Rail wagons. However the guys at Hornby magazine may have some positive news on their limited edition shortly. Cheers Mike

I've just finished the first run through of generating balance invoices (I'm sure that I will have missed some but please don't worry as we check things at multiple stages so no one gets left out). If you've not received your balance invoice(s) by email please login to your account on our website (or check your spam box) and it any balance invoices should be available for payment. You can see the latest of where we have got to with sending out orders here: https://revolutiontrains.com/click-and-collect-at-model-rail-scotland-or-let-us-post-your-class-59-0/ Cheers Mike

The early 321/3s are different (small and medium windows behind the DTCO cab) to the later 321/3s and /4s. Our model's starting point is the 321/4 which has two medium sized windows behind the DTSO (same as both DTSO on a 320 and 321/9) and a small and large window behind the cab on the DTCO. The 322s were unique in having a medium then small window on the DTCO (ie opposite way round to a 321/3). As a minimum there will be NSE, LM, Saltire and SPT orange liveries. We hope to be able to offer more! Cheers Mike

Yes, the couplers work between units so you can couple up 2 or 3 car 175s (or 5 car 180s!). cheers Mike

Further to Ben's post above - all the DCC sound fitted 59101s in Heidelberg Materials are sold. If you would like to collect your 59/0 at Model Rail Scotland next weekend please submit the short form here: https://revolutiontrains.com/class-59-0-collections-model-rail-scotland-2024/ Thanks Mike
