SLW are aware that some payments have been duplicated and are in the process of correcting the overcharge and only 97201 is due to be sent. I only noticed now so have emailed them, I should have one experiment on order but the pending charge on my card was near 4 figures! Will give it a day or two before I bother them again if they're aware 20 hours ago, newbryford said: There may be one at Hazel Grove Exhibition this weekend....................

66738 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 My credit card shows a pending transaction. I’m really looking forward to this one. It feels such a long time ago when I ordered it. I’m sure the wait will be well worth it. 66738 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordonC Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 I ordered one yesterday and it sounded like they were in-stock but they were just starting working through the orders to dispatch them out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium newbryford Posted October 23, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 23, 2019 (edited) *breaks cover* EDIT: Photos removed. The one I have was delivered ahead of the main batch as a favour by Phil. It might be on show this weekend at Hazel Grove. Since the pics were posted, their (SLW) phones have gone mad, so the pictures have been removed at their request. The more folks that ring up, the more your order is delayed. Please do not ring SLW asking where yours is - there's only 2 of them there and they will post them as best they can. I might post pics at the weekend.

SLW are aware that some payments have been duplicated and are in the process of correcting the overcharge and only 97201 is due to be sent. I spoke to Phil yesterday because I too had multi-payments showing in the "pending" section of my Credit Card, and I've only ordered 1 model. I assume they'd had trouble taking it (I had only ordered one) and wanted to check that it had gone through correctly. It had, they've just had some problems with there system which means it made multiple requests, but only 1 will actually be authorised they rest should not progress beyond the "pending" section.

Nick G Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 (edited) Anyone want a peek? Please refrain from phoning SLW, if you have ordered your loco will be on the way soon. The more that people phone the longer it will take for the locos to be packed and dispatched. EDIT: If you have ordered this model, but have NOT been charged yet, this indicates we do not have your current payment details. E-mail reminders have now been sent and calls or messages left. We would urge you to contact us on 01780 470086 with any updated details (such as expiry date etc). Your reserved models are ready and waiting!

Nick G Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Posted on the SLW Facebook page. EXPERIMENT DISPATCHED VIA ROYAL MAIL Customers will be pleased to know that our model of Class 24 No. 97201 EXPERIMENT has now arrived in stock and dispatch has taken place. Locomotives should start arriving with you over the next few days... If you have ordered this model, but have NOT been charged yet, this indicates we do not have your current payment details. E-mail reminders have now been sent and calls or messages left. We would urge you to contact us on 01780 470086 with any updated details (such as expiry date etc). Your reserved models are ready and waiting! EXPERIMENT has been extremely popular but we still have some availability should you have missed the pre-publicity and wish to purchase now. We confidently predict they won't be around for too long... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium jjb1970 Posted October 25, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 25, 2019 Wow!! This is not really my thing, but on the basis it is an absolutely stunning model and I always had a soft spot for the red/blue research livery I have just ordered one under "rule 1". I have to hand it to SLW, they have done a spectacular job and in todays market the price is not unreasonable, well done them. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
