Rapido Trains UK
You are able to pre-order items from the Rapido Trains UK catalogue direct from me, and at the same time add in customisation options - saving you the trouble of taking delivery, sending it to me and then waiting for a 'slot' in my workbench before work can be undertaken.
My target is that models will be weathered within 7 days of me receiving them from Rapido.
To place a pre-order, please contact me to discuss your specification using the contact form or you can find my email address on my Facebook page (no Facebook account required).
Please note - I only offer these services on OO gauge models.
I can offer the following:
Locomotives:
- Basic 2 stage weathering £35
- Deluxe 4 stage weathering £60
- Modelu crew sourced, painted and fitted £30
- Real coal load (if a steam locomotive) £15
- Buffer beam details fitted £10
- Etched works plates / name plates sourced and fitted £25
Wagons and goods vehicles:
- Basic 2 stage weathering £30 single / £60 triple pack
- Deluxe 4 stage weathering £45 single / £90 triple pack
- Open wagon loads (either minerals on a foam core, scratch built (such as timber) or sheeted - please enquire to discuss your requirements) £25-£45
Coaches:
- Basic 2 stage weathering £35
- Deluxe 4 stage weathering £50
Below you will find a selection of models available to pre-order, however, if a model you would like is not listed please do get in touch - as if it is available I will be able to offer the same service. Wagons and coaches not listed, but can be ordered.
I aim to offer a 10% discount on the RRP where possible. DCC ready and DCC sound available.
