Stevelewis Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Peco 009 L&B Bogie open wagons both variants in stock at ARCADIARAIL 01706 882900 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevelewis Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Photo attached of the PECO L&B open with a 2nd photo with a L&B van for size comparison. Quite a nice item, look forward to the L&B Bogie Vans which Peco are considering! Only criticism is the lack of weight the open only weighs 12gm as a comparison a 4 wheel ROCO H0e open wagon weighs 28gm so a load will be required to aid track holding!

Stephen The smaller retailers sometimes get deliveries sooner than the big boys AND quite often their prices are less than the big boys* I speak from experience!!! * note the big boys mentioned here have no connection with the USA 4-8-8-4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium cnw6847 Posted August 26, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 26, 2016 is there room underneath the bogie open for some lead? If not perhaps a false lead foil floor will do, suitably scribed for planking Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertiedog Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Hmm, Peco say they still have to deliver the bogie wagons and Hattons, for instance, have no dates for the deliveries as yet......how come some shops have the items?.. when Peco deny delivery....very odd.

bertiedog Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Well a second one ordered and paid for via Derails, very interesting to receive an item Peco say is still to be delivered.....Maybe Peco think it was the brown SR one, not the grey L&B version of the long awaited bogie wagon. I only really need a couple of the bogie wagons at present, as the L&B hardly ran goods only trains. Please don't say that somebody has the L&B Heljan already!!!!

Stevelewis Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 The delivery situation is not all that odd It is quite commone for smaller retailers to recieve stock before the Big Boys, I believe it is something to do with the shipped quantities as an example when the Farish 4-CEP first saw the light of day Arcadiarail in Shaw had their delivery. around a week before Hattons their delivery was in the 20 unit region, Hattons was around 300 I believe. Tim at Arcadia was actually talking to me on the phone last Weds when the Bogie opens arrived from Peco I was ordering a H0e loco so I got a Bogie open put in the parcel as weel to see if they were OK ( and it is) I actually buy quite a lot from Arcadia, always arrives next day ( His PO is next door) and prices are very competitive Loads of Continental H0, LGB, BEMO etc in stock as well as UK brands Almost forgot Minitrains as well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Derails Models Posted August 31, 2016 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 31, 2016 Not together I hope!! Is it single track?!! Luckily no! Yes they are separate and it is single track but we are in the middle of a reasonably short token section, meaning trains following each other are about ten minutes apart! I realise my post wasn't great for clarity, sorry 'bout that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertiedog Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Hattons and others I presume have the wagons now so original order will also be in the post. I will use Derail again though for future wagons and some more coaches. Stephen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ndg910 Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Anyone know when the slate wagons are expected in the shops? Hattons are a bit vague and RM says 'due soon' in their Peco advert. Perhaps Little Dan has heard on the jungle drums? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold PaulRhB Posted October 18, 2016 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 18, 2016 They are in production, they had a sample at the FR posted on NGRM, so probably for ExpoNG at the end of the month at a guess? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still using cave paintings at the moment, otherwise known as Windows XP - our website system doesn't like Windows 7, I don't like 8 and I haven't even looked at 10 yet! At the moment, 3/4 weeks estimated. Will keep you guys posted! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndg910 Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Ok Ive been patient but no sign of the slate wagons or have I missed them? There was a FB post in October I think of them riding the Ffestiniog and they were promised in a couple of weeks. Can someone enlighten me on delivery or have I missed them?
