RMweb Premium Roger Sunderland Posted May 6, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 6, 2016 Try Craftsman kits or DC kits as a first option Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheesysmith Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Or look at howes of Oxford for the Heljan sprues for the 128. You can get a lot of the bits fitted to their DMU from there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
47375 Posted May 7, 2016 Author Share Posted May 7, 2016 Thanks all, I did try Craftsman a couple of weeks ago but couldn't get a response, will try again as they seem to do the jumper cable block that looks correct Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Tomlinson Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Thanks all, I did try Craftsman a couple of weeks ago but couldn't get a response, will try again as they seem to do the jumper cable block that looks correct There has been a long running thread about Craftsman - I think in the "Smaller Suppliers" part of the forum. Unfortunately they seem to have been unable to supply product for some time, and orders placed and paid for have required customers including myself to pursue refunds. I'd suggest you beware and investigate properly before parting with any money. It would be great if the range became available again as it has many useful items, but I wouldn't hold my breath...

47375 Posted May 7, 2016 Author Share Posted May 7, 2016 Thanks for the information, I had sent £10, 2 weeks ago for some parts which I doubt I will get back.... Or receive the items. Disappointing really that people still take the money when they are not supplying items.... I have tried emailing and ringing this week without response Have read through the thread which id seen it soomer, least it was only £10 Cheers Mark Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
standardblue Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Or look at howes of Oxford for the Heljan sprues for the 128. You can get a lot of the bits fitted to their DMU from there. This sprue seems to have all the buffer bran jumpers, pipes, etc: https://www.howesmodels.co.uk/product/Heljan class 128 DPU sprue E (black) ( 92 ) (Posting from my mobile, hope the link comes out OK) I need the jumpers too, so will be ordering that, thanks to this thread.

However if you did an online order and used Paypal you can get a refund from them, and Paypal then reclaim from Craftsman. John. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
47375 Posted May 8, 2016 Author Share Posted May 8, 2016 Thankfully PayPal so I have logged a dispute then a claim to get my money back.... Makes you wonder why people can't add a simple note to their website to say we are not trading at the moment! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold JCL Posted May 9, 2016 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 9, 2016 Hi, I had an email from DC kits the other week in reply to an enquiry about class 114 parts. It seems they don't have any/many DMU parts available. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
