Ruggers Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Hi Arran, If the RFD black is not produced on the first run will they be released at full price or will you also offer these at the pre order price when you release them?

arran Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 HI All I've updated the website to take pre orders on the Black RFD livery , I've only put on twins and 4 packs because if the inner does not get enough orders you will be substituted with another twin .

arran Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 HI All So of the latest cads of the FSA outer , these are almost 100% , the FTA inner is an easy cad change . The handrails will be a customer fit as they were removed from the prototype when in service. Regards Arran 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

arran Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 HI All Work is well underway on the FTA inner wagons, with details still to be added like the buffers and taking out the document box and adding in the brake wheels . Wont be long now till we approve these for tooling . Regards Arran 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gedlee Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Really pleased with the way these are looking! Thanks for the update. cheers, Ged. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
arran Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 N Gauge FSA FTA cads are 99.9999% complete now we just have to do the final checks on sizes to make sure nothings changed,. then its onto the tooling . The underfloor in Red is a casting so this will keep the wagon strait . 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Stuart A Posted February 16, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 16, 2021 Looking forward to my pre-order. Any more thoughts on more containers (I think you said there might be some in the offing to complement these?) Wouldn't mind some suitable for early '90s. Freightliner red/yellow, Tiphook brown, Cast blue, Bell etc (N versions of your OO offerings). Cheers 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a rake of RevolutioN early KFAs and also have some C-Rail FSAs on order for an early 90s rake. There just aren't many good quality standard 20ft and 40ft containers suitable for this period. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu from EGDL Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Hi Gang, These wagons certainly have been a fair time in their gestation, but I’m looking forward to these when they are ready. Like anything, I would prefer an excellent model to a rushed one. Later, STU from EGVN. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are taking longer and remember its not just A wagon, there's two of them. Like I've said its decorated ones next so things are progressing, and somethings coming along in the background for you all to get your teeth into and it will be before the wagons now . More on that in a few weeks Regards Arran 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
