Thanks. I didn't receive an email. So after reading the link above the answer seems to be Q1 2022 for the Deltics. Looking forward to them, I can retrieve some of my old BR outline coaching stock to run with them on kingsbridge.

Afternoon Noel! I emailed you back last night at 9.36pm, should be in your inbox, clarifying that the orders for non UK customers would be raised and handled by our EU dispatch and billing. If you need anything else, feel free to reply to my email.

Feels funny to be excited to be ordering a model that wont be coming for months but these are indeed strange times! Added 'Nimbus' to my already ordered D9008. I see the 'Purple Haze' D9016 is available to order  - weren't these sold out at one point or have I just made that up?

 

Just need an excuse for a Manor now  - rule one on my layout is anything can turn up on the parcels train........ ;)

Yes, Royal Scots Grey and D9016 had been sold out, but we've managed to secure a teeny little bit of capacity that adds a few more back to the for sale bucket!

I agree

 

apart from my future-Deltic, I’m also waiting (patiently?) for the Bachmann 1938 tube train AND an Auscision indigenous Indian Pacific loco. No idea which one will get here first!

I thought we had all being doing that for years, not just in these times?  I waited many years (not months) for my Thumper, Kernow Warship, 2-HAP... The list goes on.

True - I'm new to the pre ordering game previously being of the opinion that its best to wait and see what the actual model looks like before committing. Its a compliment to the openness  of Accurascale and the obvious quality of the test shots we have seen on here that I am willing to commit at this stage. Haven't preordered from any other manufacturer and nothing on the horizon that is tempting me to so far (no use for industrials and other manufacturers dont inspire the same confidence that it will be 'right' so I'll wait to see on the shelves and if it sells out on preorder so be it :))

Thank goodness for insomnia and late night impulse purchasing then!

Try collecting records, thats even worse for late night impulse purchasing. And although often less the price of a 16t mineral wagon it can soon add up as does the beer/wine that caused the late night in the first place.

My original intention was to buy only one of these magnificent beasts , having poured over the Livery Samples i dithered too long -  predictably once id settled on Royal Scots Grey  it was sold out so am grateful of a second chance ,i wasn't going to miss  this opportunity twice,order placed.

@Accurascale FranFran - reference the announcement about more Portersbrook models being available - the web site only allows selection of sound fitted version - does this mean the additional models are again all sold out?

 

Graham

Only just got the email and can’t seem to order any which is disappointing

You're absolutely right.  Non-sound now gone.  Like you, picked one up this morning.  I'll drop this sound fitted one in case someone else wants it.  D6700 also ordered while i was on a roll......

Ordered Royal Scots Grey earlier today. I missed out on this first time around. Managed to bag myself one today. Im so pleased ive managed to secure this Sound Version as well. Top mark to AS for allowing a few more to be produced.

I was rather surprised to log on this morning and see that there are some DCC ready editions of RSG now available, especially since there were none by the time I saw the post when the extended run announcement was made last week. 

 

Since DCC sound was available for a short while, I wonder if people have upgraded from DCC ready orders? Regardless I am grateful RSG is available again and I've just put my order in.

 

@Accurascale Fran Do you know how much allocation of Tulyar is left please? I was going to order that but RSG took precedence! 

 

Cheers,
