  1. I've seen the images of the samples which look good. However I've noticed something wrong with the Intercity Swallow titles - the font is not correct! I've long wondered why the letters never looked quite right on Dapol models (86, HST, Mk3s etc)... and it's because it is a similar, but not actually correct. I've quickly put some images together: Top left:Bachmann 90 Bottom left: HST power car Bottom Right: graphics from a trusted site Top right: Dapol DVT The Dapol version is squashed vertically. Look at the top of the 'E' - it's much shorter than the correct artwork. The swoop on the 'R' is slightly curved on the Dapol version. There are many subtle differences, but it's not authentic. Can this not be rectified?
  2. Great to see improvements in the colour palette. The MK3 Swallow DVTs were way off in multiple ways, so good to hear an improved run will happen. I will note that the Blue/Grey coaches still have the incorrect font for "Inter-City 125" - this has always been the case (apart from the buffet car, which is the correct font. It's a shame to see this not being corrected, especially as I've seen it's been noted in the past.
