Hi all,

At DEMU a the start of last month there was painted samples on display, and they were really nice but I know Arran wants to fettle a few things to improve them.
Cheers

Arran had the 3 samples running on Law at the Perth show last weekend and very nice they look too. They'll certainly be well worth the wait.

Was that not the PCA tankers...? Or did he have both?

Sounds good and things seem to be moving along.

A few wee updates from Arran now and then wouldn't go a miss.

He has posted updates on RMWeb a few times.

He had both running on the layout at various times on the Sunday. The KQAs were tagged onto the rear of a class 86 hauled Freightliner, while the PCAs were enjoying some luxury Deltic haulage!

The KQAs seemed to be running well with some of the new 40ft containers in them. Definitely need sunglasses for the One box!

I've seen a steady trickle of updates about the container wagons. Would you rather promises of updates that never happen or just steady progress towards something you can spend your money on?

Why not steady progress and updates(!)?

There is an update over on the other site for these here:
