Dapol (ex-Lionheart) wooden open wagons

[south_tyne]

Are the former Lionheart wooden-bodied RCH open wagons now available from Dapol? Clearly Dapol brought out 5-, 7- and 8-plank open wagons a few years ago but does anyone know as to whether any of these the same line/model as the former Lionheart ones? I know the Dapol ones were subject to quite a lot of criticism when released, but I know the Lionheart ones were preiously well regarded (as with the 16t steel minerals). I just wondered whether these had been brought under the Dapol banner after the link up between the two companies. 

 

Any help or clarification would be greatly appreciated. 

 

Cheers,

David

As far as I know they haven’t been re-run but Dapol have offered some originals in their online clearance specials periodically.

Thanks that is really useful. I thought as much but it is useful to have it confirmed. It's a shame that they haven't been re-released since the link up between the two companies.
