Anybody else seen the announcement from Bachmann about the ltd edition set they are to make featuring an LNER J72 0-6-0T, and Standard 4 4-6-0 no 75001. They're making 1000 only, it'll be a moneyspinner if you get one and sit on it for a while I reckon.

I'm going to wait until I go Warley, as they may have it cheaper there. At ontracks it is £120. How much is it on hattons?

Thanks Rog. I think I will wait to see if anyone has it at Warley, if not then I will go to ontracks.

I remember last year at the lauch of the dynamis there were people selling it at Warley for £80!

Ontracks has a very good deal on the offer. Every penny saved helps. I will order from ontracks if they dont have it at Warley. I have never ordered from hattons, but I have from ontracks. It is a very good retailer.

I've had stuff from both before. I prefer Hattons as they seem more reliable and give a better feedback on what's happening with your order.
On one of my orders from Ontracks I had a train pack and a couple of decoders.
It turned out that the train pack was out of stock but the decoders were in stock.
As I had asked for next day delivery (mainly for the train pack) with insured delivery, I was quite annoyed (spitting nails actually :twisted: )when the two decoders arrived the next day and the train pack a week or so later and not even needing a signature on receipt.

I have ordered stuff from Hatton and found that their system is very good. The only comment I would make about them was that their packaging could be a bit better. When I ordered points and point motors they arrived fine but were not very well protected. A rough ride in a post van could have damaged them!
