WCML100 Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 (edited) Thanks again guys for chatting to us at Ally Pally on Saturday! Here is the shortest rake (consisting of 16) I mentioned of these lovely wagons. Running on 6M34, watch from 2:15 Now I know it has happened in real life I can model this length (& all the correct type for the version you are releasing of this wagon too!) 😁 PS: can't remember if I asked, do we have running numbers confirmed yet for each livery?

We are working closely with the factory to get the PHA/JGA project progressing to the production stage of the process as soon as practically possible. We are just awaiting updated samples from the factory, which are due imminently (The factory is currently making the samples), for final approval ahead of the project moving to the production stage of the process. The wagons are expected later this year. We will provide updates as and when we have further information. Thank you for your patience. 2 1 1 3 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks 😄 Morning WCML100, sorry for the delay in replying, I have not logged in for a few days. It was a shame that you couldn’t make DEMU this year, we had a few goodies on display that might have been of interest! We will be posting a project’s update over the next couple of weeks which will include photos of the latest pre-production samples. Hope that helps. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RBE Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 POST-DEMU SUMMER UPDATE BARDON PHA/JGA WAGON PROJECT We are working closely with the factory to get the PHA/JGA project to the production stage of the process as soon as practically possible. Unfortunately, Covid has impacted this project, with the delays caused by the epidemic and other resulting issues in China, causing a backlog in the factories. Updated decorated samples have arrived from the factory for final approval ahead of the project moving to the production stage of the process. We are now just awaiting a production slot at the factory for the PHA/JGA wagon project. We will be contacting customers shortly requesting second payments in preparation for production. The PHA/JGA wagons are expected early 2024 and make a perfect working for our forthcoming Class 56 and Class 60 locomotives.
