Title: Dapol Schools in BR green
Post by: BramptonBranch on October 19, 2017, 05:18:36 PM
Hi All
I would like the Dapol schools class in BR lined green, they issued one as Repton I believe.
Is/was it a special rare or just out of stock everywhere?

Cheers
Andy

I guess it's just out of stock. Double check the big retailers and your local model shop if you have one.

You are about a year too late. Everyone who wanted one bought one.
There won't be a re-run, but Dapol will probably do another in BR green in a few years time.
A lot of people want more of the SR pre-war Maunsell Green version too.

But Dapol have to sell the hideously bright green SR malachite ones first :)

DCC Supplies in their Dapol Outlet section have a grade B one for £63.94 if you can't find a new one. They are sold as seen but I have had a couple of locos off them and not had a problem with grade B ones. They also have a lined BR black one with early crest for the same money. Mark

I've got a brand new unused "Repton" inherited from my brother who sadly passed away recently.  It was a replacement from Dapol.  However I already own an excellent " Reston" and have no need for a second.  I have given the new one a test run an it works perfectly.  Interested?

Hopefully they haven't sold you the duff one I sent back to them a few weeks ago. Supposedly a Grade B runner but arrived with a detached con rod.
