Title: Etched nameplates for Clan Line
Post by: silly moo on March 15, 2016, 11:26:09 AM
I have decided that my Farish Merchant Navy Clan Line would look good with the addition of etched brass nameplates. The ones on the loco are not very well printed.

I went ahead and ordered a set from Fox Transfers but they say that on checking the ones they have in stock, they are not happy with the quality and they will only be doing another run in ten months time. They will be giving me a refund.

Does anyone know of an alternative supplier?

I did do a google search but could only find 00 plates.

:thankyousign:

Purely a shot in the dark here, Veronica, but if Modelmaster do them maybe the NGS shop might be able to help...........

I'm a bit confused, after telling me that they don't have plates of good enough quality to send me and issuing me with a refund, Fox Transfers have just sent me an email stating they have shipped my order  ???

I'll have to watch the postbox.
