Wonder if its a new (unwelcome) policy or just an error of omission? Can anyone confirm whether models from the latest batch apart from 9466 include plates?

None of my Bachmann 5700 and 8750 Pannier tanks came with etched numbers, so I suspect providing them with earlier 94xx was the exception. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does seem more random than I thought - the latest 24/1's include the tiny etched builders plates for example Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMKAT7 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 (edited) Good evening folks, Like PMP 99, I bought a 9481 last December and there were no etched plates with it. Not a problem as I am going to renumber it. Edit: Plates now acquired from 247 Developments to renumber mine to 8432 (OXF - 81F). Cheers, Nigel. Edited February 29 by GMKAT7 Added info.

RMweb Premium ELTEL Posted February 27 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 27 I purchased a BR Black version with sound, I will check to see if mine has brass plates. Was purchased for project which I doubt I will get around to building so I guess I will it at some stage. Terry Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
