And this one from the school of wobbly locos http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/OO-GAUGE-KIT-BUILT-BR-BLACK-CLASS-2-2-6-2-TANK-LOCO-/190879279011?hash=item2c714aa7a3

The thing is will this stay at this price, taking into account that this model is some time away from hitting the shops. I have one on order with Hatton's and was a little shocked to see the model had gone up by £30.00, if this model go's up again in price then I will be thinking very hard about getting one, it's only an 0-4-0 and being over £100.00 is getting a little on the steep side.

Hi Just had an email about this loco, here part of the email i got today: Dapol have confirmed that the Recommended Retail price for this item is now £108.06, resulting in an new sales price of £91.85. This has been due to the change in the terms of supply to all retailers by Dapol, and follows similar changes by other companies in the model rail industry, therefore we will unable to provide this item at the original retailing price.

My HM are back and nesting under my porch, saw them for the first time on 02/05/16 nice to see them back.

Buffers missing good runners directional home made lighting fitted, (Come with free 100 watt bulbs thrown in, lights up the room very well, but a bit hard to read by!)

If they are going to do the points as well i hope they close the gap between the stock rail and blade a bit.

looks like the first kit built loco i did.

My T9 and my Father's 28xx have done the same thing, looks like they will be both going back to Hornby to get fixed, unless i can get the parts from some where?. Darren

Great set of photo's again,J316, I noticed that the chimney on the signal box is a bit on the lean, great set of photo's,thank you for sharing them with us.

Hi Ray I like what you have done so far, I like to ask where did you get the control panel box from?. Keep up the good work, it's coming on very well. Darren

Strange that OR can sell their one for this price and the Bachmann one comes out at £17.95?.

try youtube.

Well that will be staying in the shop at that price, I would have expected this sort of price for a special ETD, not for a main range loco.

I have one on order since they where first announced, But if the price go's up any more it can stay in the shop.

I think these will come out a little bit more than that by the time they will take to hit the shops, mind you at £60.00 a coach is a bit steep, when kernew are doing the gated stock at £50.00 a coach. I have a set on order and will wait to see when they do arrive how much they will be, if they do rise anymore than this and I am not to happy paying £60.00, I will cancel my order. I would like to get them but I am finding it hard to justify the cost, To get a set of these is going to cost £180 for three coaches and that's if they stay at this price.

What happened to the SR tank loco, it became a County ?

The kit will not let you i am afraid .

PDK make this one.

Hornby too, I believe, has raised extra funds from the shareholders in the not-so-distant past......... Don't think this will happen again.
