Came home to a pleasant surprise (wondered how far down the list I would be being a "W") of my three wagons today.

Not had a chance to play inspect them yet, but sturdy packaging and certainly look like the wagons they should be!

Will sling them behind something triple grey and report findings at my next opportunity.

I think they must be going out on order of when purchased.

I've still got a second order to receive as i pre ordered 2 empty ones when first advertised and a further 2 a year later with the containers.

Yes I didn't order mine until September, so I think it must be in order of orders.

I know mine are on  the way because I got an email from Arran showing the parcel with my address on it!

This was because right at the last minute I remembered that my address had changed since I placed my order. I email Arran who retrieved my parcel from the Post and readdressed it. This was all done over a couple of hours last week.

Absolutely brilliant customer service.

Got my two with containers on Wednesday, very lovely indeed. I had ordered a couple of years ago as well.

I picked up a further 2 at Falkirk model rail show today.
Were only a couple of quid dearer than the pre order price.
Got six now.

Mine arrived by Royal Mail at 5pm yesterday(Saturday) the post person apologised for the lateness in the day.
The wagons look lovely but I wonder why the boxes are so long?

Slightly curious about this myself. I wondered if this was the closest "standard" size box that was available. It does at least provide room for a lot of foam protection.

Yes thought that myself, maybe its to suit the Realtrack triple PCA cement wagons which the length would be perfect.

So tonight have had a good look at my three as well as a run / play.

Most impressed and I feel they represent very good value for money. They are an imposing wagon and run perfectly (on Kato track) being pulled and propelled, loaded and unloaded.





I gave them my favourite traction for the occasion.

It's a good spell of releases for the "modern" n gauger at the moment  :thumbsup:
