I have popped into the shop - but I suspect their main business is web sales... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold 46444 Posted March 16, 2023 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 16, 2023 (edited) Heads up that Derails have announced two Forest of Dean related 7 Plank private owner wagons in today's Rapido announcement. Cannop Colliery: https://derails.co.uk/cannop Dean Forest Coal Co: https://derails.co.uk/dean-forest-coal Limited to 200 pieces on each wagon. No relationship. Just a happy customer with an interest in the railways of the Forest of Dean. Great news for Forest modellers. Both have been pre-ordered. We just need some decent Berry Wiggins bitumen tank wagons now. Cheers, Mark Edited March 16, 2023 by 46444 2 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for posting the links above Mark, appreciate that. 😀 They are already selling like hot-cakes! Regarding the Berry Wiggins tankers, Dapol are helping out with that one albeit a general release and not an exclusive to us:https://derails.co.uk/4F-059-005-Dapol-14T-Tank-Wagon-Berry-Wiggins-Black?search=Berry Wiggins 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Butler Henderson Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 Its a nice touch that a number of businesses are doing but being a coeliac they typically get taken to work for someone else to scoff; the exception is the business that sends Haribo out. One business included some individually mint chocolates but no where did the packaaging say what was in the chocolate. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CUCKOO LINE Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 Bourbon biscuits with mine ! Can we nominate Derails for next years retailer of the year ? Around here Royal Mail seem to deliver their parcels even when nothing else arrives or is delivered, they most have a magic way with RM. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philipjohn52 Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 Have had nothing but excellent service from Derails and are my first port of call. Have an excellent after sales service and am looking forward to my pre ordered locos in the next few months. Inclusion of biscuits is a very nice touch and I wouldn't hesitate to nominate them as retailer of the year. 1 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

However much I love Cornish Pasties I don't think I could managed that many... They can be traced back to the Dean Forest Railway who kindly save and flatpack those boxes for us upon delivery. Rapido were very nice and provided the box dimensions in advance so we could prepare and stock up as those flat style boxes are hard to find! The other one that's a problem for finding boxes is the EFE LSWR 3 and 4 coach packs and the Rapido APT-E... 6 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
d46037 Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 Excellent service from Derails. Ordered 37001 and D6702 after seeing they were in stock on Saturday 18th November,they arrived in a very well packed box about an hour ago courtesy of Royal Mail. Have only had a cursory glance at them so far,but they both appear to be lovely models. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Ramrig Posted January 12 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 12 Thanks Dan and team for a really rapid service for the replacement of my faulty Hornby 2MT.

I will certainly be using them again in the future. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium ColinK Posted January 16 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 16 As my local model shops didn’t have what I was after, I recently used Derails for the first time. Very helpful on the phone and my loco was delivered on the day requested. No biscuits, so perhaps they knew I was trying to loose a few pounds. Lots of pounds on the loco, both in cash and weight (over 3 kg). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helmdon Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 8 ton L&B open wagon arrived yesterday, brilliant service as always. Favourite online model dealer by a long way. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
