Believe it or not they sold plenty of the Royal Wedding commemorative coal hoppers last year !!
Not sure who buys this sort of stuff though!!
I'm sure I'll get used to cream first soon.

bring it on !!! only another 28 wagons to go to make the worst rake of CDA's ever.... Dapol's lovely Class 66 in GBRF Euro "Childrens" livery is the loco of choice....

Pass the bucket  :evil: :evil: :evil: !!!
If it's got rails... you have my full, undivided attention - Steam, diesel and electric, 'tis all good !

I'm tempted to buy one because I've got some good idea for the weathering and then covering it in appropriate graffiti...

I just don't get this at all. HM is an absolute phenomenon who commands respect wherever she goes - how on earth does this honour her? What would have been far more meaningful, and which I would probably have bought, is something like a limited edition horsebox in 1952 BR livery as used to transport some of her equine assets. It would be a low key but meaningful tribute to her, and a genuine replication of her involvement in rail transport.

Or a Southern Railway Schools, named for one that her kids went to.

Or Dapol could release a liveried 67 of class 67026 that has recently been painted by DBS in real life for the Queens Diamond Jubilee.

Does equine assets = horse's arse? ;D
Anyway, on the Kernow site it's out of stock (phew)
