SouthernMafia Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 Hi Arran, Wondering if you'll be doing any 8ft6 old style 40ft in P&O and P&O Nedlloyd at some stage? Trying to recreate late 90s/00s container trains out of Southampton. I have ordered some transfers from you but some 'RTR' would be very handy. Cheers, Rich 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Rich HI Rich P&O did have liveries on old style but Not P&O Ned did not , Or ive never seen it if they did . My be you are thinking of Nedlloyd as they must have had some but even the ones I have info on are more the current ribbed styled containers Regards Arran Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthernMafia Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 Hi Arran, What are these 40ft containers? There are at least 3 on this train and I've seen many other pics. Sorry I'm not au fait with the differences but definitely 8ft6 40ft in P&O Nedlloyd. Some good footage here at 16:40 Thanks. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

159220 Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 Looking good, you gotta love NYK Line! What’s next? I’m seeing a lot of ‘red’ HC boxes on intermodals. Beacon, TEX, CAI, Touax, ICI and blue Seaco with Yang Ming Ys on the doors. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also a note to say I ordered some 'boxes (Yang Ming 40' fridge, UASC 40', Hamburg 20' & Evergreen 20') and transfers on Saturday evening and they came this morning - excellent service as ever, cheers Arran!

PT Trains: Hi All i did ask the factory and they were not keen with so many colours But we may get some through Rainbow Railways as they can paint up 20fts . I have a load of undecorated 20fts coming so we will have a try. there are more 40ft and 20fts getting done at the moment so that will be along later this year. regards Arran 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the meantime, I have just picked mine up in Porto (they are a limited edition so selling fast). I would say PT Trains containers are on par with C-Rail's...luckily different scales Edited September 8, 2021 by 159220 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

159220 Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 (edited) Before I say, I don't want the thread being hi-jacked about price. As for me, this is a hobby and money doesn't come into the equation... Now I have built that up, I can tell you they cost €39.95 for a limited edition. Ducks for cover and back to smiling at his rainbow containers. Annoyingly, my Pride supporting partner has already claimed the badge and 20ft as hers. (I am just happy Hornby didn't produce them on their incorrect container tooling). (You got to remember the PT market is tiny, PT Trains retail their 20ft for €15.95 and 40ft for €17.95). Honestly, I would pay more for my C-Rail containers as they are great models! And a bargain in 2021! Edited September 8, 2021 by 159220 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
arran Posted October 8, 2021 Author Share Posted October 8, 2021 HI All Some Maersk containers came into stock this week, the 40ft x 8'6" is the current livery and the 20ft is the older logo with the white band round the blue.

Regards Arran I’d happily buy a few if you did. It’s quite an interesting train with the mix of boxes and tanks. Thanks for replying! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
