    Whilst we are hopeful this information is accurate, manufacturer lead times are frequently prone to be delayed. This information is to be used as a guide only.

    We hope that this email has been useful.

    Units!

     

    175 fairly wide area of operations, North west, Wales.

     

    323 bit of variety in colour two main areas of operation.

     

    Really suprised no one of the big boys have ever had a go at PEP family, 313, 314, 315, 507, 508. I know it would need a number of sides, there being many subtle differences in window arrangement and roof detail but the overall shape and look remain constant. Loads of liveries a long life with years still left in service wide sphere of localised operation.

    I was the same Mike, only wanted the DRS pair, in the email from Jamie Walsh yesterday you can read her own personal disappointment the way this project has crashed.

     

    I'm not keen on Vi-Trains products so I'm hoping it doesn't go that way, but good luck to them if they take it on, I'm sure we will soon find out.

    I agree Martin - All of my Vi Trains 37's were replaced with Bachmann ones after bits kept falling off.

     

    I stuck to Heljan for my 47's eben though there a bit wider than they should be.

     

    I have a Heljan 33 207 in West Coast and to be honest really happy with it.

     

    Just a shame Heljan appear to have given Phil and Jamie the runaround.

     

    We'll see what transpires ??

    Assuming I could find one anywhere

     

    Could the 00 D1029 Western Lgionnaire be modified with NRN Pods and up to date WArning Flashes and Name and Number plates to represent Westermn Champion ??

    Andy's given his blessing for me to post this pic that he took of the grinder on Pete Harvey's "Peter's Street"

    Frankly I think he's having us all on and he's photoshopped a picture of the real EU1 onto Pete's layout ;)

     

    Seriously though, having seen the model today when it was handed over to our Sales Director I am truly impressed and Pete has surpassed all expectations in this project :)

    All I can say is awesome !

     

    The results of this will hopefully give rise to a few more on trackplant items

     

    I think it's time to look at upskilling myself in the art of soldering and working with etched brass !

    I've just had a quick look at Precision's website and admit I am impressed. However I want some custom transfers, and do not feel up to designing them. If I supplied a broadside photo, and basic colouring, would they do them? The 2 subjects I want are (1) alternative numbering/letters for a Model Rail Sentinel (2) department No.91 & cabside lettering to renumber a Bachmann green 03. Neither are particularly complicated I would have thought.

    Best thing to do would be to email John and request a quote :)

    Cheaper to buy a new yellow one....... and repaint into DRS blue

     

    Cheers,

    Mick

    Yes but when the DRS one never got round to working a Pendolino drag on the North Wales Coast. I need Virign Liveried ones :beee:

     

    Want to do 57 309 "Brains" and 57 311 "Parker"

     

    Guess I'll have to scour Trade stands at the exhibitions as Ebay is way too expensive ! :O

    I have to be honest there are some strange goings on.....

     

    Prices seem to follow no particular trend and it would also seem Evo Stik has made a comeback. I mean £250.00 for a Bachmann 40 WTF???

     

    I'm looking for certain models to add to my collection and also some to rework into other locos, I appreciate that some of it is the luck of the draw but I thin there is some tat also and possibly even people bidding who don't have a clue !
