RMweb Gold Enterprisingwestern Posted August 7, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 7, 2020 A suggestion. Is there a way to buy in bulk but without multiple numbers of instructions (which are on the website anyway if needed) and packaging? Order incoming but just trying to save the planet a little bit! Mike. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike. Currently they are all packed individually. If you wish for us to reduce the packaging for multiple kits on your order, we can do that. Best email us the order at sales@five79.co.uk all the best, Matt 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Firecracker Posted September 22, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 22, 2020 Just to praise the superb service! Ordered a brace of kits (MDV and Tunny) yesterday at 14:25, got the despatch notification at 16:06 and the two kits (with very nice mouldings indeed) have just popped through the letterbox here. Excellent, you’ll be getting more of my money at this rate! Owain 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewartingram Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Same here. I ordered the LNER coal wagon yesterday afternoon. It was delivered by Royal Mail (not our usual Dolly but a stand-in who delivered a bit later than normal at about 11:15. In between tinkering with the car I did some odd modelling jobs, I even got the kit built by about 16:00. Stewart 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium 03060 Posted September 22, 2020 RMweb Premium Share Posted September 22, 2020 Likewise .....would just like to say thankyou for the excellent prompt service, placed an order very early yesterday morning for x7 N gauge OTAs which I have literally waited years to get hold of some and was pleasantly surprised to find them in my post today. I'd like a few more soon, along with some Tube wagons....just need a few more pennies ! Regards, Ian. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are coming, I'm moulding brake levers currently for the five remaining variants of the ballast wagons which all take the same ones. I am juggling various products in different scales all at the same time though, so estimate at a guess sometime October for the remaining ballast wagons. 3 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy M Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 (edited) I don't usually go for the 'me too' posts, but credit where it is due. I ordered x2 RC443 - GWR 20T Ballast Wagon (Tunny) Dia P23 kits at 22:00 on Tuesday, and they arrived first thing this morning. The parts are beautifully crisp, good instructions and the unexpected bonus of a bag of whitemetal buffers/vac cylinder and brass coupling hooks. Thank you Five79, I'm very impressed and will be returning for more! Regards, Andy. Edited September 24, 2020 by Andy M 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold The Johnster Posted September 27, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 27, 2020 I rather fancy one of those pigeon brake vans! They were not used exclusively for pigeon traffic, and only needed to be swept out to be available for normal parcels use; BR classed them as ‘BY’. Conversely, many ‘normal’ NPCCS vans could be used for pigeon traffic; the main requirement was fold-down shelving to stow the baskets, which of course had to be returned empty to their owners. Thus BGs, GUVs, CCTs, PMVs, Southern bogie B, BYs, BZs, Pythons, bogie Siphons, were all suitable for pigeons. I’m a big fan of BR steam era NPCCS, for the variety, and the filth. It is a first class excuse to include Gresley, Thompson, Stanier, Maunsell, and earlier main line profile stock on a small BLT. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold The Johnster Posted October 3, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 3, 2020 No. He gets a whole Shakespeare speech about how it’s not his fault and everybody let him down. Henry I doesn’t get a Shakespeare play but is, according the chronicles, the victim of death by ‘a surfeit of lamphreys’. Probably preferable to what happened to Edward II... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've looked it up it an you're right Johnster. Apologies from this History graduate! King John did however die of Dysentery, which is not too dissimilar a fate to dying of Lampreys, as I understand it. What a last week he must've had - losing the crown jewels then passing away from a severe case of dickey tummy! CoY Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
