Seems quite solid for me now so keen to hear feedback from those who were seeing slowdown.

So we’re now migrated. Let me know!

Thanks for that. I’ve been running extensive testing myself too and it does indeed appear that the underlying physical server hosting us is having issues. I’m currently making arrangements to shift the resources up a gear and move the instance to a more modern and capable server. I’ll update posts when we need to stop the forum for a few hours to facilitate.

I’ve activated external monitoring too and it’s also seeing nothing. Super odd

Am monitoring and can’t see any issues?

Could it be your ISP? Or wifi? I’ve been monitoring and haven’t detected any slowness

No actual outage reports. Maybe an ISP issue or related to all the DDOS issues?

Due tomorrow.

Planes are fierce quick yokes

Final production samples and a shipping update are due in the coming week. Not long now and they look and run amazingly.

It's taken a bit of time to get it working, but all orders now get this suite' of tools, and we're still exploring how to apply them to existing.

Actually 'new' orders now support a full suite of editing, including shipping changes and application of discount codes after the fact (unfortunately it's only working for orders placed in the last month or so, and going forward)

Nothing concrete whatsoever as yet.

Thanks all. there may even be an irish spin off

The EP is a single variant from a tooling suite that has 17 different builds allowed for. Once reach decorated stage we will have each version in this run to share including a range of differences in joins, placement and even glazing.

The sample is a 375/6, so a South Eastern example, which do exhibit the mastic sealer joins.

The blue/grey are the same livery as the first run, so will match / are designed to build longer trains using the missing Mk2c coaches. On the introduction of the 111 Class locos you started to see more Enterprise sets with a BGV at each end while the driving trailers were relegated to secondary services.

It certainly ran around multiple locations for various photos and as these things usually do, a photo of it running in anger is always possible to show up. Sales so far peg it as popular as the best selling green ones so certainly lots of you like the look of it.

There should be decorated running samples on show and possibly running

It’s never too late, most people wait until the models are delivered

In the same period I’ve seen our energy bills triple and food shops probably the same. It’s all relative. Not the end of the world just inflation.

Yes we’ve seen direct costs in china and germany (esu) rise by at least that in the period. A raft of wage increases and state mandated changes have driven labour costs in the factories quite a bit more than even Western inflation.

Uk consumer price inflation since that original 92 price is running at a little north of 37%. My point is that the ‘base cost’ of the 92 should be around £250 these days before you add a decoder at all. Another manufacturer just launched a scottish steam engine that’s 250 quid and it doesn’t even have a tender. Well happily take all the kicking once we can continue keeping pricing well below where it should be and selling out as a result to the 90%

Can you share some example links? The only time there should be a link is if the linked image is gone
