I'm not too familiar with Dapol's N gauge Class 73, so can someone please clarify if DCC-ready, etched grilles, separately fitted handrails, directional lighting are new features? If so isn't this like a partial re-tool?

I've got an older Dapol 73, it doesn't have any of those features apart from partial directional lighting (no red lights) and all the grills seem to be part of the moulding.

Maybe some pieces are separately fitted but my version is running on a split chassis.

While I doubt it'll happen, hoping for a Southern 4-6-0
