Warbonnet Posted March 28 Posted March 28 So, the "Expression of Interest" deadline has now passed. Did we get enough orders? Has the Electrostar made it?? Find out in the video below! You heard right, it's right of way for Electrostar! We want to thank all of you who have supported us since our initial announcement, and put your money down to confirm that you want one of our units. This strong vote of confidence has shown both Rails and ourselves that the project is indeed viable! Not only have you got our first run over the line, you have also helped modellers in the future too! "How so?" you may ask. Well, we know that many modellers had been asking Rails and ourselves for other Electrostar variants, such as the GWR and Gatwick Express units. So, buoyed by the confidence shown in our first run, we will also be tooling the 387/1s and 387/2s, as well as 379s which will form run 2! On top of that, we have more confidence now to pursue more units in the future of other classes and types. So, our CAD is off to tooling, and in approximately 4 months time we will have the first samples to show you. In the meantime, you can still pre-order run 1 both via the Accurascale website or the Rails of Sheffield website, or in store at Rails Of Sheffield with a £50 reservation fee. Pre-order below!

Mol_PMB Posted March 28 Posted March 28 Good news. Hopefully this will restore the AS team’s faith in multiple unit models. I suspect a lot of the features developed for this and the ICRs will find uses in other future models. I look forward to the day when we have to through-wire our Park Royals to act as AEC intermediates 2 1 Quote

Which sort of 2600 are you thinking of? 1950s not 1990s for me! 1 Quote
