GordonC Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 22 minutes ago, 25901 said: Correct, they are a small team and are working the orders with the added issue of contacting people to get their up to date card details. Also worth a mention is the fact they don't work Mondays. See it as a fine wine, the longer you wait the better it gets lol I'm not sure it can get any better than the first pictures of that production model, it just looks absolutely superb and correct 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobbler Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 I received a phone call from the office informing me that my order was ready on Tuesday, double checking I was still ok with my order. My credit card had expired and I gave them my new details blue 25324 and green D 7599 both arrived this morning i received a email order confirmation from SLW and several emails from Royal Mail with delivery details very pleased Richard 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium E100 Posted February 1 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 1 Am I correct in saying that only a few SKU's i.e. D7599 and are here and that the rest of the batch is still to arrive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got the impression they were spreading the batch out to only receive one or two numbers at a time for sending out to make it easier for a small team to deal with 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My blue one arrived today (a pity I'm in the office today, but also means I'm giddy waiting to get home and see the blue 25!). I've got another 25 on order as part of that order from 2021, and as that has not been paid for yet, its presumably not part of the current batch being sent out, shame, as combining the postage would have been a not insignificant saving. Thanks Paul. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Paul. I also have some blue ones on order , website is showing early 2024 for one and mid 2024 for the other so I can't see mine arriving together which in my eyes is a blessing with how much they cost , makes getting the money together easier 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vanbasher Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 All these pictures are making me just a smidge jealous 😆 I really cannot wait for my Tamworth Castle in green to become available. Alas no word on that yet. Fantastic pictures folks, please keep them coming & if anyone has a sound fitted example & fancies doing a demo on YouTube I'd be most interested 😉 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium E100 Posted February 2 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 2 Just logged into my SLW account and hadn't noticed this before but there is a pay option now.

RMweb Gold MikeParkin65 Posted February 2 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 2 If this isnt model of the year 2024 in the bag there was must be something utterly amazing to come in the next 10 months! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s a tricky question. Which competition might that be and will it be entered in the race ? All I can say from a personal point of view is that I have 2x24 and they were and still are light years ahead of the competition in rtr diesel models . SLW strangely is still very much a quality niche section . I keenly await my D7599 sound version. At York Show last Easter I was persuaded after a demo by Phil to upgrade my original order .Sound does work on DC. So fingers crossed. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the things I always think about when voting is ‘did my model operate exactly as expected straight out of the box?’ Its a useful distinction when there is more than one contender. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We may well be moving house when these arrive so I'm not updating to have it as a useful hold point to update my address if required at the same time. 38 minutes ago, dj_crisp said: This looks helpful.

37081LochLong Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Just emailed them because I logged in and saw that my three class 25s are listed but my two 24/1s aren't and those are the two I'm more eager for!

Just been chatting to Jennie and the 24/1's are a while off yet apparently , I'm waiting for 4 of them so not a bad thing as far as I'm concerned as I need to get the money together , between model railways/carp fishing and property renovation this year is working out expensive already , dreading the Heljan 26s coming along as well! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just going on one of the locos on E100s list is a highland 24 so I'm worried why mine aren't on my list unless it's because I ordered them over the phone not the website.
