rob D2 Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 slightly OT but the wagons show not to be Loose or Hump shunted. Do they still hump shunt in the UK? There's no humps left. I have seen loose shunting in relatively recent years - not sure if it's still allowed though now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Saunders Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 There's no humps left. I have seen loose shunting in relatively recent years - not sure if it's still allowed though now York up yard hump still exists but was extended from a dumb end to the departure road when resignalled in 1990!

emdpowerrules Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 (edited) Dapol back to their best with these, hopefully the MJAs will be to the same standard. I do however seem have a little problem as one of mine won't roll and I can't quite see what the issue is Graham Edited March 30, 2016 by emdpowerrules Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium amwells Posted April 2, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 2, 2016 Looks like these have been a massive success - all the green ones sold out (I haven't been able to get 001 and 002), and the white ones becoming scarce. Well done Dapol, now for another batch?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done Dapol, now for another batch?? Agreed with you there amwells. Collett's of exmouth (01395 224608) still have 001 & 002 in stock - might be worth a call.

Well done Dapol, now for another batch?? They Look fantastic, managed to nab my local model shop's (Alton, Hants) last 4 (one of each code) green wagons - no white ones! The shop owner was impressed with these he was saying as its a very good quality model and at a very good price! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

icphotos Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Almost sold out everywhere. Shows what happens when you make a good model at a realistic price. Unfortunately arrived wrong side of payday so missed the boat on buying a full set. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sawyermodels Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Thank you - duly ordered! Thank you very much. These will be dispatched tomorrow, Tuesday. I will email you the tracking number once posted. I have noticed that you wish them sent to a different address which is no problem at all.

Shoey Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Congratulations amwells! I'm pleased you've managed to gather a full set now. Can't believe how fast these have flown out from shops! Just shows it CAN be done. Yet another well done to Dapol. Very happy modellers all round. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
slg Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Had a message from Hattons to say that 001 is now cancelled. I think that something has gone wrong somewhere or maybe it means no more 001 will be made. If so can we have 007 to 012 ASAP please! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium newbryford Posted April 5, 2016 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted April 5, 2016 If there's one thing that Dapol do above the other manufacturers - particularly with their modern era wagons, it's a good choice of wagon numbers to begin with and then releasing some more later.

Harry Lime Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Just had a phone call from a fairly large supplier saying that they have also run out and do not know whether they would be getting more stock Is there a case for more of these wagons to be made? It would be interesting to know how many others of us would like to buy more of them, rather than having to go down the "used wagon market" route.
