RMweb Premium Coryton Posted January 7, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 7, 2017 We do, surprisingly! We're not a box shifter either, we have a physical model shop in the Forest of Dean, we just run a tight ship and make savings elsewhere that mean we can offer very competitve prices. Thanks for your orders by the way, they're very much appreciated. I'm currently processing and adding them into our system, you should start receiving updates very soon. I'm glad to hear it, given what I read not so long ago about Hornby reducing margins on trade prices. I see despite the competitive pricing you test locomotives before shipping too. Most commendable. Will you be adding the Railroad tank engines to your range? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Derails Models Posted January 7, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 7, 2017 Do you ship abroad (i.e. Canada)? I'll drop you a PM I didn't see the class 37 and 31 with tts on your list to preorder. Will you be having these in? Will you be adding the Railroad tank engines to your range? Indeed we will, these are also in the listing queue. If you could drop us a PM with your emails and I'll contact you once they're uploaded. Once again sorry for the delay, I'm slowly plowing into the backlog! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

leopardml2341 Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 I do apologise sincerely gents, it is in progress but it's a busy day here today so we're slowly plowing through them, it will be coaches first with wagons to follow, I should get quite a few done this afternoon/evening with the remainder early next week...then the Bachmann range release! Oh boy, why do I do this...? Thanks for your efforts, I'll keep checking back in the hope that I can put some of my hard earned your way Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold big jim Posted January 8, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 8, 2017 got one of the wire cutters from lidl earlier, have a lot of wiring to do this coming week so i'll see how it performs, seems good value at £9 especially with all the bits and bobs of crimps, terminals etc you get with it also in the market drayton branch in the futher reduced section they had LED desk lamps down to £5:30, you may be lucky and be able to pick one up in your local branch Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
srihaggis Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 For stripping wire those strippers will be fine (the rotary knob at the top is your adjuster for how far you want the blades to dig into the insulation), but I wouldn't advise using that tool for crimping the insulated terminals. Ok, yes it will do the job, but i'd sooner use a tool with a ratcheting mechanism designed for the job, as then you will get consistant pull-force results and not random due to hand fatigue etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems that any order in excess of one pack of each results in the message that the requested quantity is not available. This hasn't changed my opinion that the company is a shambles !!

RMweb Gold Derails Models Posted January 9, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 9, 2017 What happens if you order through Derails, and pay up front, then price goes up by say £7. john John - Good question, you're probably not the only one asking that. The customer is given total choice of what they would like to do with the order in the event there is a price increase we cannot absorb because it takes the item below cost price - we really do try to avoid it at all costs but occasionally the increase could be too much for us. Also to add, if the price goes up and you've paid a £20 deposit, it is made refundable should you wish to cancel at that point. This is theoretical I must add, for example we did not have to put up any existing pre-orders in 2015/16 as we could absorb the prices, and we'll be checking 2017 in the next couple of weeks. Hope that helps. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-BOAF Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Don't know if this has already been posted, but Rails are offloading Britannia Thomas Hardy for £109 - I can't quite believe this for a top of the range model... Someone might be interested. Similarly A3 Book Law for under £100 (though with the QC issues on this model, not surprising...). Silver Jubilee A4 Collection for under £400 (i.e. each loco under £100). Who said the days of 'large locos' at around £100 was past. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then again, I subsequently found out the 7MT's are a minefield of detail differences so maybe not everyone's first choice if intended for renumbering, 'tis a thing of beauty though no argument.
