cctransuk 7,093 Posted July 28, 2020 Author Share Posted July 28, 2020 There have been a number of enquiries about AME transfers, and I have mentioned this to John Talbot. Anyone interested is invited to contact John directly at [email protected] . Regards, John Isherwood. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

If you dont fancy it what about wizard models he seems to take over other small suppliers Please understand that this NOT about me seeking to interfere in John Talbot's intellectual property rights, or in his decisions concerning his former productions. I am merely seeking to distribute, to those who can use them, several thousand castings that were about to be destroyed. PLEASE keep to this subject - indeed, there is little point now in further comment until such time as I am in possession of, and have sorted, the castings. I wanted to let modellers know that the Appleby 4mm. range is not wholly defunct; albeit it will be a case of when they're gone, they're gone. John Isherwood. 6 3 Link to post Share on other sites

cctransuk 7,093 Posted August 6, 2020 Author Share Posted August 6, 2020 (edited) Thanks to John Talbot, I have now received the remaining 4mm. scale etches for raised I C I lettering on ICI bogie limestone hoppers, as produced RTR by Hattons, and in kit form by others. The stock level at present is in excess of 200 etches, and one etch is required per wagon. Hattons still have stocks of the TOPS-era heavily weathered hoppers without ICI lettering; https://www.hattons.co.uk/ici ; these wagons can easily be backdated using the above etches, and my numbering transfers; (see Sheet BL183 at https://www.cctrans.org.uk/products.htm ). The etches are available to purchase at a bargain price of £1.00 per etch, plus just £1.00 P&P for any quantity of etches; the etches will be despatched in a Jiffy-type bag. The etches are sold on a strictly 'first come - first served; when they're gone, they're gone' basis; THERE WILL BE NO MORE! For ordering information, go to https://www.cctrans.org.uk/products.htm . Payment will preferably be via BACS or Paypal; (in the latter case, add 10% of the order plus P&P total to cover the Paypal fee). Written orders with cheques can be accepted, but these orders will be cancelled if all etches are sold prior to receipt. Please include an e-mail address or SAE so that unsuccessful orders can be acknowledged. It is anticipated that these etches will sell out very quickly - please do not delay if you can use them. Regards, John Isherwood, Cambridge Custom Transfers. https://www.cctrans.org.uk/products.htm Edited August 6, 2020 by cctransuk 1 Link to post Share on other sites

cctransuk 7,093 Posted August 11, 2020 Author Share Posted August 11, 2020 This is a Hattons TOPS era ICI limestone hopper; (still available to purchase); that has been backdated by the addition of Appleby Model Engineering etched ICI lettering and Cambridge Custom Transfers number and owner's plates. The ICI etches and the transfers are both available from https://www.cctrans.org.uk/products.htm John Isherwood. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
