Hugh Flynn Posted December 17, 2017 Author Share Posted December 17, 2017 Hi I had almost given up on CO2 but please just wait and see there might be some info early next year? Things are going on behind the scene? As of 2 weeks ago the cad designer is completing the second set of decals . Hugh 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As of 2 weeks ago the cad designer is completing the second set of decals . Hugh Hi Hugh, hope you are well. is there any news on the CO2 tank, or is it dead in the water? Hopefully not - I think there are a good many people who would like some of these. Have you thought about asking for expressions of interest/pre-orders, and possibly even a small deposit - to keep people committed to the project? Thanks, C. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very distinctive, colourful wagons. It would be good to see some progress. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Me too - I still reckon 4w tanks is a gap in the market - LPG, CO2, China clay, various other chemicals and gases not available even as kits as far as I know... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Davidjsmith Posted May 11, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 11, 2021 Would like a few of these !Can we preorder? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
black and decker boy Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 The FTG website seems to be dead and after 3 years and having sold on the SPA having perhaps not realised the margin expected, I would think the prospects of any more models from FTG is slim but perhaps Hugh Flynn will be able to clarify. I too would love some CO2 and LPG tanks by the way :-) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hugh Flynn Posted May 15, 2021 Author Share Posted May 15, 2021 Hi All, first thing no i have not fallen out with model railways and cannot wait for show,s to start up. Yes there wont be any more models from me but this is more to do with personal circumstances. For me as a one man band the co2 tooling costs went silly, but one thing that really did not make it enjoyable was the negativity from some which made you feeling that you wish you had not bothered? I thank ever one that supported me in the past. Hugh 16 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waverley47708 Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 Sorry to hear that and although I would have loved to have seen a CO2 wagon, I fully appreciate it was a big ask for you as a one man band. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
