Ian_B Hi Ian, They went very quickly indeed but Some retailers will have them so check out their websiteA and get your orders in. As we said we could only do a limited run due to Covid backlogs at the factory but we’re even surprised at how quickly they have gone (along with the Cawoods and even the white gypsum pack) We have no plans to sell the nuclear container as a separate item. Cheers! Fran 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
66738 Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 Would you sell the Cawood containers separately? If you did, I’d be tempted to buy a three pack of British Fuels, and swap out the BF containers for Cawoods to make a 21 rake. I know I said 18 was a good rake, but 21 would be even better! 66738 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRDBLUE17 Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 Hi Fran, I’m not suprised the superb LLW nuke ones have been so popular again and great that they’ve sold out. Amazed at how quickly, that must be some model record. As soon as I got the email I messaged my not so local model shop to get my name on the two packs. He had already placed an order and think he knew I’d be after some. It’s good Accurascale are supporting local shops that know their customers well so you don’t miss out. cheers Mark 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At some point I suspect some horse trading going on, swapping containers and wagons between modellers... by the looks of it, with 21 sets of 3 done, thats 63 unique numbered wagons from 170 wagons now modelled.. so its not as if anyone needs to be short of a unique wagon number in their rake.

You are right. British fuels is out of era for me but I have duplicates of all the original 4 Cawoods sets so will be trying to swap the wagons only with someone who whats a larger uniquely numbered British fuels rake.

I’m the same with Nuclear pfa’s... i got duplicates of the first batch, ordered the new batch last night. so ive a few duplicate wagons to swap. on the gypsum wagons (i know little about these).. are the containers still in service today on a different wagon, or are they superceded altogether ? I dont have the British fuels version, but an contemplating a few of them, though want to keep moderation.. I shouldnt be in a position of having more pfa’s than MGRs when it comes to coal !

Yes I did consider this, but the OCD kicked in as I didn’t like the idea of pairing certain number wagons with BF containers when I wasn’t sure them wagons Actually did carry British Fuels containers. If I had a definitive list of what Cawood PFA’s went over to BF, I might feel more comfortable selling them on. It sounds a bit crazy but that’s me. Also just how easy it would be to sell mismatched BF’s I’m not sure. They seem to be the least popular of the first run of wagons. 66738 Edited July 9, 2020 by 66738 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for the list. You are correct in suspecting there would be no matches. Never mind. Come on Lads! Get some Cawoods container 3 packs sold.

What’s not to love about them?! I may just buy a BF pack, and hope someone wants a container swap. Failing that get the airbrush out. (I‘d rather not do that but it’s an option in reserve.) 66738 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Accurascale Fran Posted July 22, 2020 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted July 22, 2020 Hi everyone, We had some in stock due to cancelled pre-orders, but they did indeed go very quickly. We still have a limited amount of Cawoods and British Gypusm left, and indeed the whole range of other British Gypsum, British Fuels and modern barrier wagons are down to the last few. Thank you to everyone who has ordered them from us! We hope you enjoy them and it's worth grabbing them while you can if you're still on the fence! Cheers!

Graham108 Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 Fran - can you please confirm the price of the wagons without containers? Seems a bit odd they're priced the same as sets with containers, when separate containers are 3 for £20. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
