Dave,

Without wanting to rake over old muck, are you going to consider revamping and relaunching your Tamper from Nthusiast days???

I think you may do well with that, especially considering modern production techniques, oh and the fact that none of the UK manufacturers has even considered it 

I know it is available in 1:160 but a 1:148 one would go well.

Regards

Neal.

Welcome aboard Dave......
Looking forward to your participation on the forum and hopefully some cracking models over the coming years......

Hello Dave

Good luck with your new venture. I hope it goes well.

I'll second Neal's suggestion for a Tamper. It doesn't have to be RTR - kits are more fun!

Michael

Good to have you here Mr Jones!

Glad too that you have or are in the process of clearing up lingering 'problems' from the past.

All the very best for the future and I look forward to the opportunity to own some DJM locos.

Welcome aboard Dave ! 

Looking forward to all of your N products, I'll definitely be interested in the class 17 clayton.

Hope you new venture goes well, N gauge needs more RTR manufacturers !

yes thirded, more Yellow things please or  even Engineers Red/Black/Olive. (60's/70's/80's vintage)

There, is always the other Dave's stuff at http://modernimagemodels.co.uk/  but they are a bit too modern for my chosen period, but still will probably get them in time.

I already have one of DJ's tampers from his previous incarnation as a purveyor of N gauge models & repaints. Cracking little model, great for cluttering up the depot.

Hello Dave

A small suggestion for a new RTR company...

Could packing be created that fits into Royal Mail's large letter format - 353mm x 250mm x 25mm

Its annoying having to pay parcel rate for something only a little bigger than 25mm thick!

Might be a real challenge to protect a 19mm wide model against the vagaries of the post within 25mm. I think that I'd rather have a well cushioned product box then padded all round in a bigger box, and pay the little extra for it to get to destination in one piece.

I'm another for Trackplant of the 70's/80's. 

One thing that I would like to know is, if the loco's fail out of warranty, where will they be repaired?

Hi Dave,
Glad to see you posting on the forum.
As requested I mailed you both on your website and to your mail address on Saturday night but have received no reply. Just wanted to make sure you received them

Regarding the class 17, are you intending to make a dummy version as, let's face it, they generally went around in pairs

As far as I can see the dummies listed are in twin packs;-


N17-006T   D8574 BR Blue (powered) + D8583 BR Blue (dummy) Twin Pack - £149.95
N17-007T   D8616 BR Green SYWP (powered) + D8561 BR Green SYWP (Dummy) Twin Pack - £149.95

Hi, out of warranty repairs will either be done by an appointed agency, or, depending on how things go, might be done 'in house' with premises and staff in Liverpool.

This will be clarified closer to the first release.

Cheers
Dave

Good to see you are watching and interacting on this thread Dave, I wish you all the best with your venture and hope to acquire the J94 when available. The other two  are out of my area of interest but very interested in how they go and what may follow after.

Best wishes
Simon

Welcome Dave, think a good overall response to the proposed models.
Exiting times ahead indeed and good to see proposed prices in the realistic reach of modellers with spares back up and pre delivery testing.

I know this is a big commitment for you personally and wish you every success.
