nickb4141 Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Probably a stupid question, but all 142 models on Realtrack site are showing as ‘sold out’. Is this just because they aren’t available yet, or are all models actually sold out and nothing is available to pre-order? 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian_B The CAD drawings are complete, awaiting a slot for tooling to commence. Things are all over the place currently in China thats why we have no ordering on the site, as if I don't know what the shedule is then unlike others 'We are not' taking Pre-Payments / Deposits, as that is just not how we think buisness should be conducted. Will be back 'when' the finger is pulled out of someones bottom in China. 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping for a Provincial Blue one with the original 4 leaf doors and standard BR branding, i.e no North West logos etc. So basically 'as built'. You will be happy then, as 142055 will be one of them in Provincial livery in as built condition!! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
