Anyone received a sound fitted loco yet?

Hello @The Ghost of IKB

This one was reported up thread:

A March emgauge70s update.

Maybe a one off though, for sound fitted?

As reported earlier, when I spoke with Phil at York RME, he said that my sound fitted D7599 would be 4 to 6 weeks.

Hopefully I will get the call sometime in June '24. Perhaps in time for my Birthday in July 🤞

I’m a July birthday too! 😁

I ordered the all singing / dancing Tamworth Castle Ice Cream Wagon as a treat for my 50th. I’m 53 this birthday but I shall still wait patiently as I seem to recall having to wait well over 4 years for the Class 40 (40141 IIRC) from Bachmann (who do this as a day job! 🤣).

Ok I was under the impression some had paid and were still awaiting delivery, if thats not the case fine, but the other comments still stand about not insulting people.


Yep, I paid in full about 5 possibly 6 months ago.  I don’t expect that to get me my models any quicker though.

PMB will be only out at Portsmouth in November  but the Rat will also be in use on Cropper Street at SWAG (28.4), Stowrail (19.5) and Ross on Wye - 17-18. 8.)

 

I,ve got my own SLW 25.

 

TBH it was the layout that caught my eye.

Maybe its on YouTube ?

50% of the promised waiting time (as specified at York show) gone

I have given up getting excited that it might happen in the time given I have lots of 25 Locomotives on order it may take 5 years to get them all!I understand it’s a small team & customer service is often very  personal & excellent.The Loco’s are so good we just want to get our Hands on them!!

I’ve gone for a couple and fitted sound. I’ll be getting a couple of Bachmann early body ones too, then the SLW ones will trickle in. One cannot have too many Rats (or 40s)!

Too late - Heljan D5243 will be joined by SLW D5234 whenever that arrives. And I have to say that the Heljan model is very good indeed, beautifully finished, silky smooth runner and despite its lightness has no apparent haulage problems.  I did notice that with the Rails and Kernow discounts it is the GSYP's that sold out first.
