66738 Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Early 90s. My reference photo is 1993. Very hard to get pictures of!We’ve probably been looking at the same 1993 picture. No depot plaques in the photo I saw, but it did look absolutely pristine so they may not have been attached yet. 66738 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andythebud Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 (edited) Saw the advert at the Model Rail Scotland a few weeks ago and Inverness one now ordered to go with the original release of which I have 2 of. Might end up selling one of the original releases as I only need one pair. They do look good with two Inverness class 37s between them.

Now it states due into stock April, yet also on the same page states late May. Im guessing they will arrive when they are ready. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold ruggedpeak Posted June 8, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 8, 2019 Spoke with Footplate Models yesterday, looking like July for the snowploughs at the moment due to factory scheduling. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack374 Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Thanks for the photos Andy, they look great. I rang Footplate just now to check some details of my order and had a very friendly chat...apparently despite the livery rectification, estimated delivery is still around September. Jack.

66738 Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 The Buxton pair for me I think. Found quite a few photos of ADB965228 and ADB965222 but only 1 picture of ADB965226 and even then it’s in the mid 1987 onwards light grey with red chassis. Am I right in thinking there were 3 Buxton ploughs? 66738 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pegleg90 Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Should the Network Rail ones not have the yellow and black hatching across the bottom of the plough? Still looks really good though. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium DRS Crewe On A Mission Posted October 4, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 4, 2019 Hi all, I have never bought any snowploughs but I am considering a pair of OO Gauge Network Rail ploughs. Please can anyone tell me if these have been delivered yet? If they have does anyone know if their are any left in stock to buy? Thank you very much in advance.

RMweb Gold ruggedpeak Posted October 4, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 4, 2019 Still waiting for delivery Was told July, now October and no update.

On the plus side picked 2 of the original batch at a show recently for £22 each 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starting to worry about whether they are turning up at all unfortunately. On the plus side picked 2 of the original batch at a show recently for £22 each Thanks for the reply. It's very much appreciated. I am debating whether to buy two of the Hattons snowploughs or two of the larger snowploughs by Footplate. I don't have the need for a pair of each, so it's one or the other. The ones by Footplate tempt me because these seem to see more use than the smaller ploughs produced by Hattons. Hopefully the ones by Footplate will be produced and will arrive soon. That's brilliant. It's not very often you can buy wagons in current times for £22 each! Bargain! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the reasons I go to shows, always some good bargains if you dig around, even at smaller shows I don't usually attend shows just because of lack of time, but I do buy from smaller model shops which offer good discounts and shop for models on Ebay, especially when they offer discount days etc on models. Last Christmas I bought a Bachmann DRS 37688 for £113 off of Ebay using a discount code. Bachmann 37s haven't been that cheap since 2014/2015. Always good to get bargains isn't it, especially at today's prices. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
