A bit of a cross between Slash and Hendrix perhaps?

Evidently these will only be available to order direct from Dapol so there'll be no retailer discount.

What I can't tell from the drawings is whether they actually plan to do the correct 8ft bogies or just re-use the 8'6" ones. Although I guess the fact I can't tell from the CAD says it's a minor issue in N anyway.

Older ones had Fox bogies originally and then ex GNR 8ft Gresley single bolster bogies but avoiding that I suspect is just a case of picking the right prototypes.

Same - the BGs are definitely need for those parcels trains, and I actually saw and travelled on the blue and grey Gresley Buffets when they were still in service.
I really hope Dapol receive enough interest for these.

In some respects, given there is a kit (though now nearly out of stock?) it'd be more interesting to me if they do the steel sided ones, though there were a number of variations in the details.

Hi Martyn,

Take a look at Isinglass range.....

https://www.isinglass-models.co.uk/store/N-Gauge-kits-c171972101

If what you want does not show in N Gauge - refer to the 4mm range, then ask if what you want can be added to the N Gauge range....

Worked for me!
