Just for info, I took the decision today and cancelled my Dapol order for two locos and am going to use money saved to buy a new camcorder to film the real thing. So if any one is interested there a two more Dapol Class 08's out there for reservation but sadly there is no guarantee you will ever get them.

Is the latest October slip in forecast this year or 2017? Thanks to Tower Models for progress update but it is a really shame we have to learn of Dapol progress via a third party. I guess the delay is more than to do with production issues of the Class 08 not the Terrier batch which has just filled the available empty production slot. As I said I'm guessing about the latest delay excuse and would look to Dapol to be a little more forthcoming and responsible for communicating real progress themselves. Shame as I was looking forward to a really positive change in 0 gauge ready-to-run when Dapol first released their Class 08 announcement in ...? Er... what year was it... I can't remember it was so long ago. Time for for me to move to another hobby as this one does not deliver as expected and have wasted so much time waiting for products to arrive late or just don't arrive (this is now sadly typical of many suppliers using offshore suppliers).
