Mark Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Mine has just been despatched. Interestingly no mention of the drop in wheels pre ordered so clearly they are coming later and didn’t make the model release. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

norfolkchinaclay Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 (edited) @RBE hi Cav/Alex please help!!! I’ve had a preorder for 56091 in DCR grey (sound fitted) in since they were announced and been let down today by a certain retailer who says they may not be getting them now… sure you know who. I’m gutted! I need to know if they will be getting them or not so that I can order a non-sound fitted one from another retailer as ive rung round and all the sound ones are sold out, with not many of the non sound versions left either now. A couple of retailers have kindly put me on their reserve lists in case any become available if they have any cancelled orders but I really don’t want to miss this one! Alex K.

Marcoblanco Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Anybody fitted a txs sound decoder yet? May go down that route if lighting functions work all ok Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold 97406 Posted January 25 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 25 It’s a lovely runner. I’ve just fitted a boggo decoder for now but I have the headlight, marker lights and one of the fans to play with. I will put an ESU decoder in, but I may just go for the sound upgrade. I have a DCC sound 56093 Tinsley large logo one on order too so looking forward to that. Anyhow, well done, fellas. A great model that will be adorning the little shelf by my desk all afternoon now.

The despatch note and charge only covered the loco but the wheels are still on my pre order list so they aren’t forgotten. My wheels are for P4. Has anybody else had P4 or are those so far released EM? Edited January 25 by Mark Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Dicky L Posted January 25 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 25 Would I be correct in thinking this is the speaker to use in DCC ready versions if we wish to add sound?W Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pays your money and takes your choice as they say. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium E100 Posted January 25 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 25 Any idea if Colletts have got their batch in yet? Can't wait to marvel at 56008 and it's accurate upside down 8! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
taliesin Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Will the sound chip and speakers be available to upgrade a dcc ready version to the full monty version. I ask because I’ve purchased one sound equipped one and not sure I can quite stretch to another before next payday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re looking at sorting this asap but will be a few weeks or so till we can confirm (as you can imagine have quite a few models to get out!), but the intention is to absolutely supply DCC sound upgrade kits if we can!

It will no doubt get the treatment soon! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
