Wolf27 Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 Hi All Received this email a few minutes ago With immediate effect Eileens Emporium have taken over Bill Bedford Models range of etched components and jigs. It will take a short while to get all the products onto the Eileen's website, so please keep checking. As part of the take over, Eileen's intends to make all items available from stock as well as improving descriptions and instructions. Clearly this will not happen immediately, but as you would expect, Eileen's website will be open about availability. Bill Bedford will continue to supply, the present Locomotive, Loco Frames, MU Motorising and Wagon kits as well as the made-to-order coach etches. A new range of coach kits is also under development. An announcement will be made when a website detailing the new products is up and running. All outstanding orders will be honoured by Bill Bedford. -- Bill Bedford Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium 2ManySpams Posted March 29, 2010 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 29, 2010 I got this too. I take it it means that Bill is concentrating on manufacture and EE are doing the sales and promotion sides. Interesting to read they want to carry stock of his items - the coach sides have taken 2-3 months to arrive in the past from Bill as he presumably made to order. Hopefully it's a good move for the hobby. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
