What absolute rubbish! 🤣

I dunno if it's just me, but one thing that kind of niggles a bit on the original Hattons model is the fact that the cabside handrails always appear a tad overscale (0.4mm - see photo) and might have benefited from being slightly finer - I generally find that 0.3mm looks better? Best Al

Hi @Revolution Mike B @Revolution Ben I have a defect on some of the ECOFRET wagons that I received back in February. I have made contact via email on March 19th and again on March 30th - I have received no response to either email. I have also tried to contact via RMWeb direct message, firstly on April 5th and again on May 4th - I can see that both messages have been read, however no acknowledgement or response to either. As two full months have now passed with no response or attempt to deal with the issues reported, I feel I am sadly running out of options at this point... I would appreciate some kind of response or attempt to resolve the issues reported. Please kindly advise. thanks Alan

A question regarding 66001 in EWS livery... and is there a possibility that cabside mirrors could be included, so that this loco could be modelled in later condition? thanks Al

Hopefully at some point in the future 66623 in its original Bardon Aggregates guise may be a consideration... 😊 Best Al

I always buy them from Hobbycraft, who offer free UK shipping on orders over £25. Best Al

66779 - I don't own the Bachmann version - it's nowhere near accurate to begin with, but I'd buy the AS/Hattons version in a heartbeat - and I'd guess that many others would too... and 66721 for that matter. Al

Exactly the reason I like it so much... 😆 Al

66507 is in 'as built' condition. Best Al

@Grimleygrid Stunners! 😍

...

Remember that RevolutioN are essentially a two-man band and from what I can gather they seem to have been tied-up for some time with sending out Cartic carriers to customers. We obviously know that the Ecofrets are here (and have been for a while, so I believe). I doubt that they are being held up on purpose, so I'd guess that patience might be key. 🙂 Best Al

So that competing manufacturers can potentially copy said information...? 🙄

Agreed. As suspected, Dapol's version of InterCity is closer to InterCity 'Swallow' livery. It's difficult to tell from the photo, but has the Executive Dark Grey improved from the previous 'virtual' black, I wonder? It looks as though it may have done so? Al

InterCity livery is basically Executive Dark Grey and Executive Light Grey, whereas the first batch of Dapol 73s were closer to black and white. 😖
