Well after what seems like an eternity, 37099 is here, along with 37049. I do feel for "Imperial", who can only long for the spotlight that surrounds Merl! Anyhow. We are allocated 32 of each, which are coming in two batches; and tonight the first batch has gone live. The profits from these, "should", cover the cost of the new Main Bearings for our Power Unit which will be going back together very soon. As we are just back off holiday, we must admit that these won't go out till Friday at the earliest, so if you are in a rush? please take this into consideration. So I give you 37049 "Imperial" in Triple Grey Railfreight livery with Coal Sector markings. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/163212176814 And for some, the main event. 37099 "Merl Evans. 1947 - 2016" in COLAS Livery https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/163212182262 Thanks for your patience, especially those of you that pre-ordered either, or both locos from us. All the best Martin

We've ordered a good number of both, and these will all be for general sale as we don't do preorders on wagons. So a last chance saloon for you and others maybe?

Late to the party, but we're back off our hols and finally taken delivery of these lovelies ☺ Hope we haven't missed the rush? They will be up on our site this evening, along with 37049 which has accompanied it. Keep an eye on our thread in the Model Shop Section for the finer details. Cheers Martin.

Looks great! We're a week behind everyone else due to our annual summer shutdown. Can't wait to get our hands on it, and out to those of you that have preordered it from us, and the balance on the shelves by the middle of next week hopefully. I have a feeling demand for this one will far outstrip the total production run!

Hello everyone. just a quick reminder that our last postal run before we close for our summer holidays,is tomorrow (wed 8th August) Any orders received after 4pm on the 8th,will be processed on the 21St August. Many thanks Martin.

I remember when our man received the consignment of our 512 37003 locos for distribution. He's never been the same since, and has vowed not to even be in the Country when our next foray arrives in the new year! Have fun, and enjoy the proceeds of your hard work. Martin.

From the biggest to the smallest, we stock them all! Welcome back to a couple of old friends as we push on with our Summer of fundraising. 08631 "Eagle" in Network Southeast Livery. A one time shedmate to 37003 at Dereham, and countless shoulder rubbing at Cambridge during the 90's I am sure. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/153116274960 and 08818 in Weathered BR Blue Livery https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/163170409022 Have a great weekend whatever you are up to! Martin.

Just to let you all know a bonus Virgin Liveried 47814 has come back into stock. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/153112760767 Thanks! Martin

Good afternoon to you all. Great to see some of you at the DRS open day yesterday. What a fantastic line up provided by them. As always post events, we upload the remaining stock to our ebay shop. (Yes still no time to work on our website!) https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/c37lg/m.html Particular highlights, and new to us. We have one Bachmann 32-850A BR Standard Class 9F 92220 BR Green Late Crest ‘Evening Star’ remaining. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/153109661651 One set of Bachmann 39-002 OO GAUGE BR Mk2A BFK HST Barrier Vehicle Twin Pack https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/153109658052 And we have a bit of a bargain for you. We found an ex-display Bachmann 31-614 OO Gauge V3 Tank, 67646, in BR lined black livery with late crest. The box is a little bit worn, but the loco has never been removed from the box. -- Now Sold -- Many thanks as always for your continued support. Martin. C37LG Chairman.

We were told last week that 37049 and 37099 should be with us mid august.

Thanks for the public vote of confidence Rob. The pleasure was all ours. We love people with long wish lists ☺ Happy to bestow our charm on anyone that has a curiosity to buy from us! All the best. Martin

And 47245 is live, Ladies and Gentlemen https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/153105163275 We only have three, and are unlikely to get anymore. Although I suspect these won't sell quite as fast as the Colas Class 70's! Which went in......whoosh. Minutes! Thanks to you all for your support, and if anyone that buys one is visiting the DRS Open Day on Saturday? we are more than happy for you to collect it in person. Along with any other items we are currently selling. All the best. Martin

47245 arriving tomorrow ☺

Good afternoon to you all. I was informed at lunchtime that we had a mystery delivery from Bachmann, which could only mean one thing.... A new release! I have just been told this is 47245 and we have three of them. I will put them up for sale when I get time tonight, but if anyone wants to bag one to save me a job? Then drop me a PM. Obviously we will am charging the "going rate" which I have not looked up to be completely honest with you, as I am at work! Until later ☺

If anyone is visiting the DRS open day this coming Saturday (21st July) ?? We are very honoured to have been invited to bring our shop along to the event this year. Do come and say hello if you are there, as it is always good to catch up with our RMweb supporters. It goes without saying that our team have been busy handling lots of big boxes at "Goods Inwards," so you can be sure to pick up lots of goodies. Until we get the open day out of the way, our online stock will remain at a low level. If there is anything anyone is hankering after in the near future? do drop us a PM. All the best, and maybe see you on Saturday? Martin

Thank you for those kind words Steve. That will be another round of thanks heading over to the C37LG WAGs! Our Sales Officer's good lady specifically. It costs me a fortune in Flowers and chocolates every AGM! But we wouldn't be allowed to play trains without their support

No sense what-so-ever My sales team are very proud of their little County, so I always try and promote it for them! https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/Rutland/@52.6419636,-0.9052462 Thanks for making your credit card sweat more than it probably already was tonight!

And to conclude with a few smaller items at the bottom of the box, and may not as exciting...... 38−041C 31 Tonne OBA Open Wagon in Railfreight Red & Grey Livery https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/153085563027 38-046 31 Tonne OBA Open Wagon in Railfreight Distribution Livery https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/163131907658 Phew. What a busy night! But hopefully even busier for our expert team of packers. Goodnight All. Martin

Nice one Sir! Should be away from sunny Rutland on Friday for you. Hope you have got those shades ready for it!

Turns out we've got 4 Freightliner ones as well! Amazing what you find when you scroll down your email! You can find those here: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/163131910796 Cheers once more! Martin
