A lot of 16 ton all steel minerals were quite often acquired via third parties, Standard Railway Wagon were buying from BR, refurbished and hired to the NCB. There were 16 ton minerals sold by BR hired to the NCB returned and then hired to ICI for mainline use carrying Soda Ash, with some later going to BSC at Port Talbot as IU’s. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they had a link down to Doncaster, which is where the NERly started. https://www.lner.info/co/NER/ Paul Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am just hoping that either WoR have more runs of these, or Rapido produce some. The four versions must be damn near sold out now ? And there are so many Staffordshire options Andy Y !!!

Moderators AY Mod Posted August 2, 2023 Author Moderators Share Posted August 2, 2023 We only launched our NCB Internal User wagons a couple of weeks ago and we’ve been amazed by the popularity plus it has also been interesting to look at which of the products have been the most popular. Far and away the most popular has been the pack of four wagons for £114.99 followed by wagon No. 1 at £29.99 which is unsurprising as that is the style of wagon which was most widely seen around the country plus it’s the most striking one visually. So much so that we’re having to extend the run of that particular wagon to ensure we can meet the demand and balance the availability. As this demand was evident before the deadline we have with Rapido to produce what’s needed it has meant that we’ve been able to adjust the size of the run of Wagon 1 so no-one is disappointed and so that everyone who orders by the 21st August is guaranteed to receive their choice including all those who have already ordered and paid. This also means that we’ve also been able to agree, thanks to Rapido’s excellent approach to communications and quick responses, production of two further wagons in variations of the ‘large white cross’ style which gives a little more variety and the potential to build up rakes of wagons with the typical variety of these locally-painted wagons. Welcome to Wagons 5 and 6! Each of the additional wagons are available singly at £29.99 but also as a pair for £57.99. We have also created some other packs of wagons including Wagons 2 and 3 as a pair for £57.99 and an additional ‘large cross’ pack of 4 which includes wagons 1, 4, 5 and 6 for £114.99 and a pack of 3 'large cross' including waons 1,5 and6 for £86.99all this has been possible because of the increased demand so we have our lovely customers to thank for this! We hope you can forgive us for producing slightly more than we ever intended to of one particular wagon but it has helped us make sure we can keep as many modellers happy as possible. That is all good news but what this also means is that if you have registered your interest for any wagons which may still be available it looks increasingly likely that they may not be available or the choice is restricted. If you have only registered your interest and want to be guaranteed of getting your choices, please place your confirmed order and payment through our shop by 21st August.

I buy many things from the UK, books, railway items etc and think that 12.00 GBP per delivery is quite reasonable as most people will want at least a pack of four- Can you please try and get this sorted by the cut.off date (31-08) so that we too can have a chance of ordering some. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeoffBird Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 P.S., At less than 130.00 GBP they would fall under the current IOSS regulations and should mean less paperwork in shipping them as the dispatcher just charges the UK VAT as usual and that is it!
