Thanks for all the replies, much appreciated. 

 

After looking at the RoS photos I thought I'd made a decision to go for D7041, then I read about the omission of warning flashes which I'd completely missed!

Just noticed the November releases are now available from at least one retailer in the North West.

Just wondering if anyone has any further info about these two:
3531 GSYP D7041
3533 GSYP D7050

Both seem to be pristine, the same livery and not preserved with the only difference appearing to be running numbers. Upon doing a bit more research, the real D7041 was an earlier version with different boiler and brakes to the later D7050.

I've no idea if there are any visual changes between the two and if there were, would these have been replicated on the model. Unfortunately the retailer only currently has photos of the previous versions (though blue FYE version 3535 show correct photos).

Also, does anyone know if the 'droopy couplings' were resolved on more recent versions? The ones I have were from the very first release and suffered from this.

Thanks.

Evening...

Just to add to the positive comments from yesterdays scanning party.

Despite the inclement weather which saw me turning up absolutely drenched I had a really good day. I hadn't been to the Heritage Centre before, nor seen the APT-P in real life.

It was reassuring to witness Dave and Mick's passion, enthusiasm and motivation behind the project.

Also I know we can ask questions and request features on here but being able to talk to Dave and Mick in person was a reason I'm glad I attended.

Of course it was good to meet fellow crowdfunders too - as we all share a common interest!

So thanks to Dave, Mick, Michelle, Brian and the Heritage Centre staff for a great event!

Hat's off to Brian too. After the steps had been persuaded to depart the grassy area, Brian went back to tidy things up, which he didn't have to do but it made our photographs a bit nicer - so cheers!
