Quote from: njee20 on April 01, 2026, 11:58:20 PMTo be clear I've never had any issues ordering from Steve, quite the opposite, and I've placed loads of orders. I did once get OO gauge decals (having ordered N), he replaced them, but with the wrong set, and then got it right third time; he was super apologetic and very responsive.

I don't understand how people manage to get custom stuff from him though!

Hi Nick,

Depends what the custon stuff is.

If it's simple - just use the website section for custom decals

Last things I did were for NCB internal user coaches - Clean workers only, Bath men only, Ambulance plus NCB lettering with Numbering. Got them within 3 weeks.

Just to balance it all up, I have had several orders sorted by Railtec, never had a significant issues. this includes a couple which were rescaling as well as standard stock items and special orders for name and number plates, the most recent arrived yesterday as a class 73 numbers and plates with my wife's name.
Excellent service and superb quality every time.

Best wishes

I'm with @njee20 . I've never had a reply to any of my downsize requests.

It's and interesting technique, might be worth a shot. I'd worry I'd get what i actually ordered

I saw that!  What's driving that price?

Seems to be super hit and miss, I've never had an acknowledgement of a request to resize anything! I like the idea of ordering in OO though, I may try that.

I find it really surprising that Farish did the 60 (and now the 20) before the 37 got an upgrade. It's a decent model IMO, but crying out for a sound option.

One of the Clacton area group has a sound 37 with a file by Kevin at Coastal dcc.

Don't know how much it cost him, but about the best diesel sounds I've heard.
