Recommended Posts

We are waiting for updated CAD drawing (Over 12 months since the 1st CAD's were sent)  this normally takes about 2-3 months. Its not been a good year for Chinese deliveries for 'ANY' electrical products, sadly now over one year late.

PPS I could say like others 'Things are progressing nicely,so don't miss out, Order Now'  but until we have some evidence of tooling samples, I do not intend to take other peoples money.

Heading for display at Margate?

not what I heard.

The 141 is a non runner and was planned on going to Margate.

 

There is another 142 getting a repaint at Eastleigh.

Does this tally with what you heard?

 

According to wnxx.com 142003 will be used on connecting services for the Staycation.

 

Preston or Manchester via Clitheroe to Hellifield maybe?

 

This will bring it back to one of the locations where they were tested when new.

Both skipper and GMPTE, they ran together aroubd manchester all the time.

 

142002 for me, it was the pacer equivalent of 47555… every where at once… I couldnt go out without seeing it…

Dare I say it but the GM Orange livery is one of my least favourites. That Arriva Trains North and North Western Gold star and blue... 

Another + 2 for the First North Western livery. More so as I remember them like this (and something to run alongside my 143s) 

 

 

142070 & 142068
