Most likely at Dawlish the sound of water sloshing and the main drive fuse going BANG……and then silence. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RPNaylor0301 Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 Real long shot here - but is there any prospect of the Driving Trailer being released separately (given that TPE have 13 sets + a spare DVT)? Reason I ask is that the layout definitely isn't long enough for loco +5, but having seen a couple of photos of the spare being moved solo I might be able to swing that (and it's such a superb model I'd love to swing it!)

All the good stuff there; lovely Nova 3s, a nice 68 and a grid, which everybody knows we really love! And you cant beat a bit of engineering stock too. Cheers!

Steadfast Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Some of, if not the oldest wagons in regular use with the newest coaching stock. Nice! Jo 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edge Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Hi all, Quick query - when I try to buy the Mk5 sleepers on my work laptop the price is showing as £149.99, but when the same page is loaded on my phone (work laptop won’t let me buy things) the price is £179.99 Can someone shed light on this for me?

Hi Al, As it was a mixed order with a Deltic it has been split into its own order. We always advise that pre-orders should not be mixed across product lines as. Hope that clears it up! Cheers!

atom3624 Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 It's done now, don't mind and looking forward to them when finally arrive. Deltic's on a separate order from Rails, so a little confused here, but never mind. Al. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Accurascale Fran Posted February 15, 2022 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted February 15, 2022 Hi everyone, Just a quick heads up; two of the Caledonian Sleeper packs are now sold out on pre-order, with some of the rest also running in short supply. Production slot has long been booked to commence in the next week and we saw a large increase in orders since we previewed the decorated samples. So, if you fancy some Mark 5s, don't leave it too long! Delivery in the summer and available only direct. https://accurascale.co.uk/collections/mark-5-coaches Cheers!

RMweb Premium nightstar.train Posted March 11, 2022 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 11, 2022 Shouldn't have read this thread, I've gone and ordered a Trans Pennine pack to add to my two sleeper packs. Fear of missing out. Now I'm going to have to get a class 68 as well. Sigh. 4 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want a four coach train of Seated/Club/Sleeper accessible/sleeper then the Highlander pack 3 and Lowlander packs 1 and 3 contain that formation. 2 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium E100 Posted March 13, 2022 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 13, 2022 Fresh back from a trip to Highlands including a walk to a bothy from Corrour! I managed to grab a snap of the sleeper in the morning. Seems a bit overkill having both a class 66 and a 73. Is this due to power (for the coaches)/adhesion/reliability? 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
