December is a expensive month for me without the added Christmas and New Year expense, and with a limited budget each month, I have to watch the pennies. You're welcome to order and choose Direct Debit, which defers payment, they are due to board ship in a few weeks time, so you have as much as 8-10 weeks if you want to spread payments. Hope that helps! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be, but the website specifically says Accurascale and refers to them as 00. They don't seem to stock the Revolution N gauge ones or anything by Revolution for that matter. https://www.oliviastrains.com/trains/mt/accurascale-wagons-oo-gauge/accurascale-nuclear-flask/acc2400-kua-nuclear-flask-carrier-twin-pack/ 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just been on Olivias Trains website and it does say the OO gauge items are "In Stock Ready to Order". As the people who make them don't have them yet, it seems like the "In Stock" bit is totally misleading, and the "Ready to Order" bit is applicable. They're out of order for their statement. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Accurascale Fran Posted January 22, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 22, 2021 Hi everyone, Just a small update with these; the freight situation out of China has not improved so it will be March for these I'm afraid. We're really sorry for this delay but our hands are tied on this one sadly and we tried our best. Thanks, Fran 1 3 3 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pegleg90 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Thanks for the update Fran! That’s fine by me, totally understand- gives me more time to actually get power to my layout to run these! Sure they’ll be worth the wait! 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium pylonman Posted January 23, 2021 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 23, 2021 (edited) Hi. Just going back to Olivias Trains saying they have got these in stock : just been on their website within the last hour, and they still maintain that they are "In Stock Ready to Order". Not only that, but they also state that if an item has got a price next to it, it is in stock ; and the KUA's have a price of £160 against them. They are definitely listed as the OO gauge version. In connection with my order for the AS TPE mk5's : I have just ordered a TPE class 68 Achilles in OO, from them, which they also reckon is in stock, and yet no-one else has them, not even Dapol !! I've ordered next day delivery, so I'll see if it arrives. If it does I'll let you know here. Edited January 23, 2021 by pylonman Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than disappointment, I'm not sure what you're trying to achieve here? Accurascale themselves have said (not 3 posts before yours) that these will not arrive in the UK before March. I'd tend to believe the Accurascale team over what a retailer (who has a reputation for being dodgy) says on their website! We'll all have to be patient, and look forward to the arrival of these wagons in March! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's in reference to the 68 isn't it? 2 hours ago, pylonman said: and yet no-one else has them, not even Dapol ! I have two! Olivia's probably have them as they are dearer than everywhere else (and therefore will sell out last). I paid £136 each for my pair from Hattons and they came yesterday. Olivia's AFAIK are at £160 or £180 a loco. Anyway, plenty of talk about who has and doesn't have a TPE 68 on the 68 thread: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perfectly well aware of what AS position is........ and I am perfectly OK with AS, and having to wait like everyone else, Thanks. I have actually contacted Olivia's pointing out that their advert is incorrect. Maybe that's why they've now changed it ? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
