Project Update
The Design team are currently reviewing the samples and are on the whole very pleased with what they have seen thus far.
Four small corrections have been identified up until now: some of the No Smoking signs need to be re-located onto the correct window, the window bolections need to be painted mahogany on the GWR Twin City and the Shirt Button examples. The suffix W needs to be removed from the BR Maroon model. There is also a small adjustment required to enable the optional auto gear to be fitted to the model without fouling the bogie, this is already in hand.
We anticipate these models to be in the shops sometime during the second quarter of 2025.

Project Update
We have received a fully working Engineering Prototype (EP) which has had several improvements made to it based on the feedback provided to the factory based on the 1st shot evaluation made a months ago. the design team will evaluate the EP and provide necessary extra feedback to the factory for further tweaking of the tooling suit.
Artworks are currently under review and will be forwarded to the factory when they are complete and any small niggles have been ironed out. we will then be waiting for decorated samples to be prepared.
