We have also taken the time to update our 2014 fixture list https://shawplan.wordpress.com/exhibition-diary/ where you can find which exhibitions we are attending this year. Its been a busy year already one way and another, and we’ll provide further updates on new products soon. If you’re unable to get to Scalefour North, we are at the York Model Railway Show over the easter weekend. We hope to see you at either or both shows!

18th October 2013

Well its been a while since we’ve posted anything, but we’ve been busy in the background! One of the summer developments which has taken a while to achieve is putting all the components into an online catalogue, so its easy to find what we do and the price of the items. Weare still developing the website but hopefully this major step forward will help you the customer, as well as ourselves in the office!

Please take a look at the link at your convenience.

Laserglaze Developments

We have an addition to the Laserglaze range too. We have completed tooling for the windows for the Bachmann and Mainline class 03 and 04 diesel shunters. Please note this only covers the original body moulds rather than the current version. The contemporary version is currently one of the work in progress items. We also have in development a window pack to fit the Hornby 2-BIL, further news on these in due course.

Extreme Etchings

With the Class 37 being one of the most popular locomotive types, we are working on a modification kit to provide new roof panels to model the 37/9 variants. We are hoping to release this kit in time for the Warley show in late November. Both single and double exhaust  ports types will be produced, price code TBC.

This weekend we are at the Peterborough show, drop by and say hello!

DEMU Showcase 2013

5th July 2013

GEDP4010
English Electric Cab Roof Vents

This weekend we are at one of your busiest shows, DEMU Showcase. In the run up to the show we have been working on new products and these cab roof vents are one of the new items we hope to have for showcase.

We’ve designed them so they fold up from a one piece etch which automatically forms two fixing pins to help fix them to the cab roofs.

Come and have a look at these and our other ranges this weekend, we look forward to seeing you there!

Railex Aylesbury 2013

This weekend we are at Railex in Aylesbury, and are pleased to announce some new items.
Following on from our last entry we have included some new laserglaze products and there are also new releases in our extreme etchings range. The images below shows our components used on a Hornby Railroad class 40, they include laser cut windows, etched headcode surround, frost grills, roof fan and grill and front cab window surrounds. What a difference it makes!

On to our new releases,

EELG4023A Lima Class 117 DMS Extra windows conversion pack. Price Code G
This allows a modeller to converting an unpowered DMB to a DMS to reflect the normal DMU three car unit configuration using Lima components. This kit covers the extra windows required.

EELG4030 Airfix/Dapol LMS Suburban 57′ All Third Price Code K
This kit contains sufficient windows to covert a lav composite to an all Third configuration

From our extreme etchings we are pleased to announce etches in 4mm and 2mm scales.

These are to scale and correctly profiled to give an accurate shape to the cabside windows on any 4mm scale Class 47.

All the above are ex-stock for Aylesbury, we look forward to seeing you there!

Derby, DMU’s and Roaring Forties

9th May

This weekend we are at the Derby show with four new releases in the Laserglaze range. We have recently added three of the popular DMU’s which we are asked for.

EELG4025 Hornby Railroad/Lima 121 ‘Bubble Car’

EELG4023 Lima Class 117 DMU Power/Trailer Car
(one vehicle) Price Code K

EELG4024 Lima Class 117 DMU Centre Car
(one vehicle) Price Code K

EELG4025 Hornby Railroad / Lima Class 121 Rail Car
(one vehicle) Price Code K

Each pack has sufficient glazing for one vehicle, based upon the original releases. The Class 117 DMU was released with brake compartments in both vehicles and the packs reflect that, rather than a corrected trailer car. The Class 121 Rail Car has been tooled specifically for the original Lima moulding which is now in the Hornby range. If you’ve done a cut and shut using the 117 unit then order 117 unit kits as the glazing apertures are different dimensions.

EEFG4001 Hornby RailRoad / Lima Class 40

Some customers have been giving the old Lima Class 40 (now Hornby Railroad) a makeover and swapping it onto Bachmann Chassis’. This can give a pleasing result as can a full makeover of the Railroad or Lima model by itself. To help those modellers we’ve added a laserglaze kit to the range which covers the side cab and body windows.
EEFG4001 Hornby/Lima Class 40 Cab/Body Side Windows
Price Code K

We have decided not to do the cab front windscreens for this model as they are of such poor shape, however an easy conversion for the front windows can be achieved using our class 37 standard window pack EEFG37-12a which are shown on the image above.

Come and see us this weekend, we have news soon of further releases in the heritage range of coach glazing, we look forward to seeing you there!
