dibber25 Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 The Model Rail Bachmann Class 66s in Metronet livery will be arriving in Peterborough tomorrow (April 22) and we will start fulfilling orders ASAP after that but there will be quite a backlog of orders to clear so it will take a week or two. If you haven't placed your order yet, don't delay, as these locos won't hang around! £97.99 (subscribers get a full 10% loyalty discount and pay £88.20). Phone 01487 834352 (9am-5pm Mon-Fri).

dibber25 Posted April 22, 2010 Author Share Posted April 22, 2010 They're here - they look very nice and the one that I've test run is smooth and quiet. There's a nice pair of etched nameplates, too. CHRIS LEIGH Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natalie Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 Hi Is there anyway of confirming that a loco has been ordered from yourselves? I think I have one reserved but as I'm getting on a bit- being over the age of 40 now (and I have no wirtten confirmation)I can't rememember....

mike tugsandsheds Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 Hi I spoke to a very helpful gentleman on the Order Line (Number as above) to check my order I placed in October was still there. It was and they'll be taking payment next week. Best bet is give them a call. I'm really looking forward to this Model, as it's something a bit different to go with the other GBRf 66's I've got ! Cheers Model Rail ! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold tetsudofan Posted April 27, 2010 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 27, 2010 Spoke to the very helpful gentleman on the Order Line yesterday (to order the S&T wagon) and he advised that payments for the Cl.66 were being processed. Checked my credit card account today and see that Model Rail have already sucked some money out . Can't be long to wait... now. Must say that everytime I've phoned the Order Line the service I've received has been first rate. They are a pleasure to deal with Keith Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natalie Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Thanks for the replies. I shall have to give the order line a ring when I am in a position to get at an outside phone after I have finished my long days on Wednesday- as outside phones in my workplace are a big no-no!!

Chris Nevard Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 To shamelessly whet your appetite, here's a pre-production mock-up on Chris Leigh's Black Dog Halt late last year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike tugsandsheds Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 Mine has arrived an will undergo detail and Nameplate application this afternoon. I will then take a look at some reference pictures for weathering I'll post some pics Monday once it's done ! Looks good straight from the box though !

Tony Walker Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 Much to my surprise the post man came knocking on Saturday with a parcel, I knew it wasn't the Dapol weathered silver bullets from Kernow, as they had arrived on Friday, but it was the Model Rail Bachmann limited edition class 66 in GBRf Metronet livery. So for those of you that have ordered this one, here's a couple of photos to whet your appetite. The small printing on the cab sides is very good, as is the rest of the printing, excellent job by Bachmann. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike tugsandsheds Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 Well here she is.... I've fitted detailing at either end and nameplates, also lightly weathered the exhaust area and I think she looks great ! Well done Model Rail for producing an interesting variation on the Shed Theme. Please let the next one(s) be DRS 20's Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natalie Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 Hi Just to follow on from my earlier question I took the advice of the replier and have spoken to the order line at MR. The nice gentleman confirmed that I had indeed placed an order and that it was number 213- so I am a happy bunny! Hopefully I shall have a 'we missed you' note waiting on my door mat when I get in from work over the week and can go and collect it on Saturday!
