Hopefully :D

It has been a few years since these have been available. I was wondering if they were going to be consigned to the 'never to be seen again' pile.

I was quite shocked to see the prices of unbuilt second hand kits last year at Exeter, still I suppose that is market forces at work. It will be interesting to see what price they are reintroduced at.

Ha ha! That's about right - the machine gets replaced just after I get fed up of waiting and build my own - see the rolling stock thread!

Still, I think mine will work out cheaper, I think I costed them at about £6 or £7 each...

It will be good to have the Coopercraft range back, the world of 16mm isn't the same without it...

They don’t seem to have a lot for 16mm.

Still like your’e slate wagons though, at that price you have an order from me of 10….. :thumbright:
