CazRail Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 Mine arrived today, and are spot on. Their performance on the layout, detail and weight is superb. Well pleased. 1 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium ERIC ALLTORQUE Posted June 8, 2021 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 8, 2021 This release might have done the Hattons 66 some good,the last EWS at 6 in stock and the last DRS one down to 10 left in stock, cannot hurt the Dapol 68 DRS pre orders also. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
159220 Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 Must say, though I had reservations about these wagons. On arrival, I thought I won a nuclear mine (I like mines). The weight is quite astonishing at c.420g! Certainly shall need a double headed 20/3 to ensure safe transport. I am pleased to see a number of previous 'quirks' ironed out and a rather pleasing wagon delivered (best to provide an understated compliment than all out praise) as you have done quite well! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack374 Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 For those looking to acquire some escort vehicles, Rainbow Railways have produced a quantity of each of the original MK2as, £70 each: https://rainbowrailways.co.uk/product/Bachmann-br-mk2-drs-barrier-coach-9428-oo-gauge/?fbclid=IwAR0CGVx9HDCodtFPk_i8RFSub7daJNWasCccdPVN3ghun0JLJzTT8ZbVCEs I've got no affiliation, just popped up on Facebook.

jonhall Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 I believe Rainbow do small batches using their own paint process, so if you really want one then I'd give them a call to see what they can do, I wouldn't be surprised if they do another batch of demand was there.

RMweb Premium Phil Mc Posted June 21, 2021 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 21, 2021 Given these a fairly light weathering. While doing so, the more I looked at them, the more lovely detail touches I noticed !! (especially the pipework under the end walkways.) Cheers, Phil. 6 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Gilbert Posted June 21, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 21, 2021 (edited) I have one of the Rainbow escort coaches and its very well done but just be aware the NEM pocket is slightly too high and has a stepped tension lock coupler. I've bodged my KD and it seems ok. Chris Edited June 21, 2021 by Gilbert 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
