RMweb Gold Accurascale Fran Posted September 27, 2021 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted September 27, 2021 Hi everyone, Shipping kicked off for these (and the coil As!) this afternoon and will take several more days to complete. In the meantime some previously sold out MDO/MDVs and Coil As are once again available on the site due to cancelled orders so if you were looking for a particular pack check out our website and move fast! https://accurascale.co.uk/collections/mdo-mdv-21-ton-mineral-wagons Cheers, Fran Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

w124bob Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 Looks as if the hand brake should work does the 15 wagon pack come with a free brake stick! A superb bit of detailing there. 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

phil gollin Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 . I see from the e-mail I got notifying me of the despatch of my MDO's and MDV's that Accurascale's UK base is situated on the old Merton Priory site, quite near one of the old Tri-Ang factories and near the Wimbledon-West Croydon line (now Tramlink) and dismantled MertonPark to Tooting line. I hope that inspires Accurascale to do something associated with the Wimbledon-West Croydon line ? One lives in hope. . 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have loads and a deltic together, that means by default we'll wait for the deltic, but drop us a line and we can arrange to split the order for you if you wish. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately that will cost me an additional 15 pounds shipping for the two coal packs. When I communicated with Accurascale earlier this year, Accurascale suggested adding the coal to the Deltic order to solve the check-out cart problem, because the cart would not allow me to add the coal to my previous wagon order. Unfortunately the two orders weren't linked at that time in your system. That's OK, they are great wagons, glad to have received them so promptly.

RMweb Gold McC Posted October 2, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 2, 2021 Tracking we're finding is at LEAST a day, in some cases two out of date of late. We see 'delivered' updates 48 hours after actual delivery for example, seems the tracking systems are running on a backlog or similar. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although England is nearer to Ireland than the US is, the ship setting out from Liverpool to carry orders back to England has to heave to in the middle of the Irish Sea, whilst customs board it to search for contraband sausages. On the way back the ship has to be boarded again so that Nigel Farage can open every box of wagons, just to check that no illegal immigrants have concealed themselves inside.

We see 'delivered' updates 48 hours after actual delivery for example, seems the tracking systems are running on a backlog or similar. I wonder if the weekend is having an effect? I had an email from Royal Mail on Friday advising me that mine would be delivered before 3pm on Saturday by Parcel Farce. That struck me as distinctly optimistic as they don't deliver on Saturday afternoons - if at all on that day. And, not surprisingly they didn't arrive. I had two more emails this morning - one at 08.10 to say the parcel would be delivered by 3 p.m. and another at 08.35 saying - absolutely accurately - that the parcel had been delivered. The bloke who delivered it must have 'ticked it off' on the system as he left the front door and I'm not sure if it was Parcel Force or our normal (letter) postie who delivered it. So apart from their ill-founded optimism about Saturday delivery what was recorded by them today was accurate and the delivery confirmation email came to me - if not you - very quickly. Nicely packed parcel with no damage noticeable to the contents and including a delivery note from Irish Railway Models - oh and nine delectable wagons thank you. I can't wait for the 16 tonners to go with them (always worth dropping a reminder ) 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
