as well as some new MOD variations covering some different eras that we haven't produced previously.

Great news - I've been looking to extend my warwell rake for a while. Do the 'new MOD variations' mentioned above include the correct widened decks for the modern versions?

Well, well, well...

As you probably know, we have an ever expanding range of military vehicles to complement our warflat wagons...
but our latest were possibly a bit too big to fit...

Well, the stowage boxes can be removed to keep in gauge, but why bother when they will happily sit on a Warwell!

Hatton's have very kindly agreed to extend their run of their OO warflat wagons to include two additional modern Warwell wagons, that will be exclusive to us at Trains4U.

Artwork will be supplied once finalised, but we have commissioned the following wagons:

KWA 95540
in green with yellow ends

KWB 95527
With Green ends and stencilled data in white.


These will be slightly more expensive than the Hatton's wagons at £27.50 each.  This is to cover additional artwork and sample costs as the production run is quite small

The wagons will be delivered to us as part of the main Hatton's run in early 2024.

Hi!

 

Would you consider producing a run of Warwell infills for AFVs etc. please? They would be very useful!

 

In anticipation, 

 

Graeme

Some are fitted with a low platform to keep certain AFV's within gauge such as the Warrior APC as shown here.

When you say fitted with, these are presumably just loaded on with a forklift prior to use for those vehicles that need them?

If/when we get around to doing the Warrior, we will also draw up the cradles to go with them, but we don’t have any immediate plans.


Hi Gareth, is there a reason Warrior isn’t on your immediate to do list? In the early 2000’s we seemed to shift a lot of them around and it was easy to tell a train carrying Warrior as it ran with an Out of Gauge code on our patch as it had an Oppos restriction through one station so the opposite line has to be blocked due to the slew of the cradle / Warrior.

We have a queue... 🙂

Given a Warrior was the first internal combustion vehicle I ever drove (What fool would let a 15 year old at the controls!), it ought to be higher on the list...

I like admissions like that, you had us worried with if/when 😁

Hi everyone,

 

Pre-ordering your Warwell wagons is essential to ensure that production can go ahead. Some models have not yet reached our required order threshold, so if you have not yet placed a pre-order we recommend doing so as soon as possible or these items may have to be cancelled.

 

Pre-order yours for £25 each, HERE

 

Affected models:

H4-WW-006B 50t 'Warwell' military flat with diamond frame bogies in BR grey - M360335

H4-WW-007A 50t 'Warwell' military flat with diamond frame bogies in BR brown - M360332

H4-WW-021 50t 'Warwell' military flat with diamond frame bogies in MOD 1960s green - 83020

There does seem to be an abundance of the older variation ‘diamond frame’ wagons available on the used market for a reasonable price (both hattons and Oxford models) but you very rarely see any of the more modern varieties come up 2nd hand, im glad to see none of those are on the ‘affected’ list as I’ve got a few on order, maybe if the newer variations appear to be selling well or sold out then a few different running numbers could be produced at the expense of the slow sellers above?

Hi guys,

 

We are pleased to let you know that we have now received decorated samples for most of our next batch of Warwells! All are still available to pre-order for release in Q2 2024, for £25 each HERE

 

We are still awaiting a sample for H4-WW-023 and hope to be able to share this as well in due course.

 

Cheers,
Dave

Can only assume from this email that Accurascale are fulfilling these?
