RMweb Gold Robert Shrives Posted July 9, 2013 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted July 9, 2013 Hi gang check out Dapol website - launch pages - product development has a 33 page with a long list of models - looks very good. Just need a world where ScR models could run alongside SR diesels and EMUs! Robert Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verityboo Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 Had my hopes up then that we'd be seeing a decent 00 gauge 33 model soon (as per Dave's previous somewhat mischievous comment on the subject) 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulbb Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Where the Ep's in Ngauge then, presumably?? A 4mm one would be interesting though , as it would go head to head with the Heljan/Rail Exclusive one.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve1023 Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Dave, any chance of a piccie of the Crompton EP? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DapolDave Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 I understand they are being taken this last couple of days. However don't get too excited. A black body, lacking glazing, exhaust, grills, bagpipes, lights, chassis, buffers, motor etc. Unless you like the idea of a Dapol snap together kit ;-) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just need a world where ScR models could run alongside SR diesels and EMUs! Robert When new class 27 was allocated to Cricklewood and Thornaby amongst others, class 26 to Hornsey. Class 33 worked North in pairs on a cement train that worked as far as Teesside. Quite OK to see GREEN 26 and 27 working alongside Class 33 and SR EMUs in the London area, or GREEN class 26 and 33 alongside each other on Teesside for a few years. Hope this helps.

Les Where in Teesside did they work to Les? My sources say they worked to York but occasionally further. I wonder if any pairs got all the way to Uddingston! Now there's an idea for Dave and Co--the notorious Lambton Worm cement wagons! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bending01 Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 For those who are interested there are some pictures of the Class 33 mouldings on mremag. http://www.mremag.com/news/article/first-shots-of-dapols-new-class-33-0-and-33-1/16183 Mouldings look crisp and promising!

I wonder if any pairs got all the way to Uddingston! Now there's an idea for Dave and Co--the notorious Lambton Worm cement wagons! Mostly taken off at York, but have been photographed both at Tees yard/Thornaby shed, and crossing Durham viaduct - which I would take as working through to Tyne yard. The local class 27s seem to have interworked with class 25/0. The Thornaby 27s in any case had smaller fuel tanks I understand, so would have been kept on fairly local duties. Hope this helps.

Mr chapman Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Any news on these? They should be due soonish shouldn't they? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy L S Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Not at all close apparently.. As has been mentioned elsewhere under the Dapol heading on RMweb, although they had got as far as producing some test-shots of the body, for unexplained reasons Dapol now say they have scrapped the 33's tooling and started again. Apparently there is a little more detail in July's BRM, perhaps someone will correct me if I am wrong, but I understand it will likely not now appear until sometime in 2015?

woodenhead Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Not a peep about it on Dapol's site or on Facebook. Interesting way to release something new, you'd think they would make a bit of a song and dance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahame Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 I think you'll find that the class 33 being 'available' is an error by Hattons. I've just spoken with them and they confirmed that it's not actually in stock. After all, we haven't seen the new first shot EP version yet. G.
