Just passing on the news as we all expected several titles to be in stock around now, but the publishers Crecy seem to have had issues as they now advise that October/November releases for these two titles are put back to January 2024.

 

We already have advance orders for these which we will honour when the publishers actually release them, meanwhile we are still taking advance orders for those customers who want to roll them into our Christmas Bonus Offer, which means we will send out what you order now and the two delayed titles to follow in January.

 

All very frustrating for everyone of course, the titles affected are:

 

British Railways Freight Terminals Since 1960

 

51pKcV-SvAL.jpg?v=1697191325

 

British Railways Diesel and Electric Locomotives

 

5169212rwAL.jpg?v=1697190741

 

Also suffering delays are Lightmoor Press with these two titles now due late November rather than the anticipated late October.

 

The Railway Over the Stainmore Pass Post-War Boom and Bust on the North Trans Pennine

 

lmstain1.jpg?v=1697116326

 

 

Also caught in the same delay is:

The L&NER Delivers the Goods Volume Two The Scottish and North Eastern Areas

LMLNER1.jpg?v=1697115594

 

These two are expected to arrive with us late November so will be shipped ASAP upon arrival.

 

Our own new title Sir Nigel Gresley The L.N.E.R.'s First C.M.E. is very much still on target for release on 15 November as planned.

Delivery of The 2024 Railway Quiz Book from Transport Treasury Publishing has been made in the last 24 hours, likewise we are already seeing the steady uplift in sales in preparation for Christmas with orders coming in thick and fast, also a good number of customers making use of our Wish List facility on our website. This way you can do your best to get what you really want and steer unwitting relations and friends away from the likes of sock, jocks and hankies and all manner of rubbish they seem to buy us for Christmas and birthdays.

 

So do help them out and draw up a list on our website or make it very clear what you really fancy.

@Strathwood Kevin,

 

is there any more news on when the next Celebration/Steams Lament books might be appearing? I know you were hoping to get some out in time for xmas. just so I know if I need to hold off sending Santa my wish list or not!

Thanks,

Martin

Hello Martin, absorbing Irwell Press and taking up wholesale distribution for over ten other publishers, giving us now in excess of 1700+ titles in our warehouse, this alone has certainly kept us all busy this year. However, behind the scenes I have been putting together and completing a large number of titles that would otherwise have come out this year, but will now start to flow in 2024, thick and fast. So, by all means send Santa your wish list asap. We will announce all our new titles as they go to the printers each month in 2024.

 

All the best,

 

Kevin
