Nice video. Don't worry about the fan noise; some of my old Beatles records have fan noise in the background.

have you got yours yet?

Here's a couple of videos (please excuse the fan noise in the background of the first one)

Thought I'd take a few pictures now she has her details on.

Just got mine, she has to be model of the year for sure.

Don't think locomotion/rapido could have done any better!

An update as such is that the problems with the UK delivery only affected half of the batch of Silent models, which I know is not what we wanted to happen at all and I do apologise for the delay in getting back to all customers affected and this has understandably caused me to postpone sending out international ones until later this week, which I aim to start sending out from Wednesday. Tom will be on site with me at Locomotion tomorrow and I know he has been in constant contact with the couriers in sorting out the error that occurred.

Great to hear .

Likewise. Last Monday, I received the letter with the new replacement chains to go with my model that has still not arrived. At the moment I don't know whether it is lost in the "post" or whether it has been dispatched or not. It is this aspect that I find frustrating and the complete lack of customer contact (other than via messages on this forum). However, waiting for an excellent model is not an issue (nor is the possible loss of my name and address which some seemed very concerned about). And before someone says that the models were sent out with tracking, I also know from personal experience that things can get lost or delivered to wrong addresses even with tracking.

I’d love to oblige but

 

I’m still waiting.

Same here.

Hello everyone, like the previous two posts I have now received my Chains, lucky that all the details are correct, just waiting for the model now.

Lovely bit of film – thank you for posting it. That’s the late John Bellwood, CME of the NRM, driving. He also drove the Single in an episode entitled The Quest for Speed in the series Steam Days with the late, great, Miles Kington. Sadly, that episode isn’t currently available on the BBC.

 Oh right, didn't know that thanks!

Hello everyone, just found post on YouTube uploaded by GCRofficial of the stirling running on the Great Central .

Hello everyone, just had a look on the locomotion website and a new section has popped up on the stirling.

Still haven't received anything yet, getting a bit concerned.

I haven't received an email either.
