Our Class 56 project has been progressing nicely in the tooling stage to a point where we are confident we can release the price of the loco without changing it further into the project - with the RRP being set at £189.95. The price of the DCC fitted and DCC sound versions are TBC at this stage.
We’re very excited to receive the first shots out of the moulds and will provide a full update on the project once these have been received.
There’s one final unannounced model in the Cavalex Class 56 range; which Class 56 would you like to see us produce?
Thanks to all of our customers and followers for their overwhelmingly positive reaction to the project so far.
We just wanted to take the time to wish all of our customers and followers a very Happy New year! 2022 promises to be a significant year for us at Cavalex - including the forthcoming TEA tank wagon release in the coming months. Production is progressing well as can be seen by the numerous grey barrels being produced!
