The boat is due at the docks next week, so fingers crossed for a smooth journey through customs and import to the warehouse.

 

The Rails, NRM and DPS exclusives will be palleted directly to those providers once cleared and checked in to the warehouse for onward dispatch.

 

I'd have thought that it would take more than a week to get from the Med to the UK. Maybe it has Napiers bellow decks.

We are happy to share most things, but that's in the "commercially sensitive" bracket I'm afraid!

 

Cheers!

Ah... I see most have been sold to Ukraine.... maybe to start towing Russian tanks off the battle field....

 

I see the crafty plan now...

They sneak up on the enemy lines, before scaring them off with a sudden deltic roar and finally the little but heavy loco pulls away a 60 ton tank...

Heres to next week or so will be a big weight off you guys minds if the customs clear quickly,

I imagine Birmingham gridlocked with motorscooter style local deliverys from Uberaccurascale to get them out with the utmost urgency, as to some it sees life or death.

Hope everything goes to plan ,thanks for the updates and if its as good as the A class we are in for a treat.

Not sure what weight limit a scooter has but I suspect one 55 may reach that, even without the rider.

So with the Class 55 delivered, I guess you are ready for the next big loco announcement then?

 

One does not necessarily lead to the other. Give 'em a chance. 🤨

I'd rather see a confirmation on the 89 before anything else gets announced to be honest. I know Accurascale's hands are tied with that though. 

 

This wait for the Deltics has convinced me to sell a few unused locos and put in an order for 55015 with the DPS, so that's four on the way now for me (2,9,15 & 22)

Confirmed? You make it sound like something's been announced and you're reporting news.

 

Just so no-one else gets sucked in nothing's been announced. 🤬

Do the Deltics come with the Winged Thistle headboard?

I thought I remember reading this somewhere, but I may be making it up (or getting wires crossed with the manors which do have headboards).

If not I'm tempted to order a couple with Fox Transfers for my pair.
