The last few listings I have done wouldn’t let me write anything other than edit the cringe worthy AI blurb. If I wrote my own it just refused to save it! Mark

That is a 2a. 😃 Mark

Not too sure about the window at the back of the 119 Brake I don’t remember them having sliding vents. I remember them with a single pillar above the horizontal bar. Mark

Just had the dpd email for the Blue and Grey versions. Mark

Problem sorted. Just had to remove the sticky tape and pads.

Mine arrived today and one bogie is locked solid. Both clips are in place but the drive shaft is displaced so I need to get to the top to reassemble it. I have removed all the screws from the circuit board but there is something preventing it from being lifted anybody any idea? Mark

Just heard from Rails this morning and they are going to send the wheels this week post free. They said they couldn’t send them out with the locos because they weren’t pre-ordered at the same time. Anyway hopefully sorted now. Faith restored!!! Mark

I have heard nothing from Rails since last Thursday when they said they were looking into it. No response to my subsequent messages. The P4 wheels are still shown in my pre orders. No doubt if they do eventually send them I will get stung for the postage! The loco is scheduled for delivery today. Mark

Mine has been despatched from Rails. I queried the p4 wheels and they said they were waiting confirmation for these so I don’t know what is going on there. They are still shown on my pre order list. Mark

I have just sent them a message. The despatch note and charge only covered the loco but the wheels are still on my pre order list so they aren’t forgotten. My wheels are for P4. Has anybody else had P4 or are those so far released EM?

Mine has just been despatched. Interestingly no mention of the drop in wheels pre ordered so clearly they are coming later and didn’t make the model release.

Have a look at Slaters. A range of buffers are available. Great Western square shank coach buffers are around 10GBP a set. Mark

Possibly 2e as well. The Hornby effort was pathetic! Mark

Why is it the people who get the best deals on auctions are the least likely to leave any kind of feedback? I have auctioned a number of things recently in mint unused condition which sold well below the price they are currently available for new and they were posted as quickly as possible within my stated dispatch time, excess postage refunded and nothing! Mark.

Not to mention the cast class 31 bogies it was provided with and a moulded centre wheel on the power bogie like Airfix did. Later they changed it to class 47 bogies but never the correct bogie. Mark
