Saturday afternoon TEA time!

We’re pleased to announce that dispatch of our TEA wagons has begun following arrival of the wagons from China last week. If you haven’t already confirmed your delivery address to us, please get in touch as soon as possible so then we can dispatch your order. We can’t wait to see the wagons on customers’ layouts!

We have contacted all customers regarding the second payments for our forthcoming TEA wagons ahead of production starting next month. If you have not heard from us or have any questions please let us know. We are still open for new pre-orders via our website below, however this will close once production commences, with our retailers stocking the TEAs when they arrive in the UK.

Whilst it has taken longer than we would have liked to receive the painted samples of our TEAs and achieve the weathered finish, we are really happy to showcase the Total TEA, weathered TEA and KBA pre production samples.

View the full update here:

From day 1 we have set out to innovate and push forward the RTR models we are producing. Not only with innovations never seen before on our BBA/PGA wagons, we want to raise the bar on factory weathering. Whilst it has taken longer than we would have liked to achieve the finish, we are really happy to showcase the weathered TEA and KBA pre production samples. Produced by multiple layers of tampo printing, using slightly different colours and tones; we feel we have achieved an authentic weathered finish.

We’re looking forward to showing off more photos next week - as well as the Total grey TEAs

We are pleased to advise that the first Engineering Prototype samples of our TEA have arrived. There are a few minor tweaks to be made which will be implemented ahead of the first painted samples due over the next couple of months. We are very pleased with how these have turned out and would like to pass on our thanks to everyone that has supported this and all of our projects so far.

Stay safe.
