However, the Bachy 66s have been around for some time and I, for one, have loads of them. I will not replace them with Hattons models. If people want a cheap 66 then the Hornby one will suffice. In a nutshell, there will not be significant demand.
I think that Hattons will end up with loads of stock and egg on their face, I’m afraid.
I also believe that Hattons, in supplying wholesale, knew what they were doing and were daring Bachmann not to supply.
Good for Bachmann in sticking to their terms of trade.
