I got in touch with Rails' customer service today to see if there was an update on the pre-orders for the Hattons Genesis coaches. This was their response: "We haven't yet started to raise the orders for the Genesis coaches but will be doing so in the near future. As long as you had a confirmed preorder with Hattons, we will fulfil this preorder." So, no updates yet but it looks like we can expect to hear from them soon Edited April 9 by Flying Snail 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, no updates yet but it looks like we can expect to hear from them soon The info I had tends to concur with this; summer to early autumn. I had ordered a single example of each. When I did so, the full brake in black’n’tan was sold out on pre-order - I think I got the last one. it’s just occurred to me - if Rails are posting these things out instead of Hattons, what’s the situation with customs charges? Should I get them sent to my “safe house” address in the north? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its relatively straight forward - no customs charges (and no UK VAT), but you will have to pay Irish VAT and the customs handling fee Edited April 9 by Flying Snail 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
