Hattons enter n gauge market as manufacturer

[Dizz]

Wrong in so many ways for my South Devon/Cornish layout but just have to own one. I could come up with a reason why it would be working along the sea wall at Teignmouth, going over the Albert Bridge into Cornwall and on to Redruth, but at the end of the day............Rule One rules! 
I pre-ordered mine this morning.

It could bring the housebridge down!!!

I dont think hattons have had such publicity on the forum have they?

Most definitely not for me but there's certainly  a few locos that I'd love someone to take on and build.

Keep dreaming............or at least get the layout powered to enable something to run!!

Hattons are to be congratulated on such an ambitious loco as their first N Gauge project. If should get a lot of "Rule One" sales on the basis of being such a spectaular prototype.

I have dropped Hattons a mail asking if the RHTT can get the shrink-ray treatment. That should be a real seller...

Ok so I am obviously not allowed to have an opinion based on my personal experience. I will keep them to myself from now on, just remember without criticism they will never improve their products.

Would you be the same Paul80 that has been bagging Dapol on the RM Web Garratt thread?

Just wonderin' ?

Already strengthened in anticipation of DJM Kings running into Cornwall sometime next year

Ah, so they've seen sense and gone for two motors now.  That's got to be better.

Wasn't at all interested in this. But the CAD work is really selling it to me.

The Beyer-Garrett is just awesome, I'm down for one already. One motor would do me, but then I'm never going to have room to drag 40+ mineral wagons, or even HAVE 40+ mineral wagons. There's no way I'm missing out on this one.

Some of the connoisseurs amongst us like @Newportnobby will probably have a couple, y'know, one parked strategically behind the breakdown crane as another slowly hauls a large rake in front of it.

Several decades too early for me. Normally. But. Rule #1!

Wonder if I could invoke these being used on the Fawley oil trains instead of the 9Fs that were at Eastleigh? The Dapol 9F doesn't cope with 20 class B tanks.

Bob. July two years ago mr devereaux wrote the fawley finale article in railway magazine. Google fawley oil steam trains its there. Click the link . It gives history plus suitable locos and barrier wagons.

You've got your work cut out selling this model to me. I've no intention of buying one

Nobody has suggested you'll be buying one!
