Model Forum / General / Railroads / May 2010Atlas Editions
In the April edition of Hornby Magazine was a leaflet detailing an offer for a model of a Corgi RTW 1/76 scale bus for £1.99 with free P&P Atlas Editions. Has anyone who also applied got theirs yet ? Chris I applied almost 2 months ago, not got it yet.

Doesn't the law say that they have to send it to you within 28 days? >> In the April edition of Hornby Magazine was a leaflet detailing an >> offer for a model of a Corgi RTW 1/76 scale bus for 1.99 with free [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] >> >> Chris  SignatureJane UPDATE Got this from Atlas Editions Customer Services today :- " Thank you for your email. we can confirm the order was processed for you, unfortunately we experienced delays in receiving stock of the Buses. We have now received them and yours should be dispatched within the next few weeks. Please accept our apologies for the delay and for any inconvenience this may have caused. " "within the next few weeks" bit open ended ! Good job I did not pay for it during the order phone call ! Atlas Editions appear to have a problem with deliveries of everything if the web is anything to go by ..... they claim to send out over 40 million packages per year ! Chris > UPDATE > [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > if the web is anything to go by ..... they claim to send out over 40 > million packages per year ! It's a come-on to buy a series of down-rated model buses produced from Corgi moulds at 15 quid apiece. Fine if they're models you want and you don't mind missing details like mirrors, wipers, number plates, etc. The old adage applies - if it looks too good to be true, it probably is.

Chris >> > UPDATE >> [quoted text clipped - 25 lines] > > That's why I like 'Railroad' Hornby ! I like 'Railroad' Hornby too, as it's half the price, but I don't think £15 for model buses (after the first two) is 'cheap'. Hatton's has lots of older EFEs for £15, and many even cheaper bargains on Corgi, Britbus and CMNL, including an Eden Project Citaro bendy for £10 (RRP £30)!

Me too, suspect railroad 9F is the tots favourite loco (even diesels lose out), he loves Duchesses of course but dont give him so much freedom with them. Cheers, Simon My London Transport RTW double decker and Southdown Bristol Lodekka FS finally arrived today ! Will not be able to use them on son’s layout as mounted on display stands but he’s happy with them. He also got his wall chart, pin badge, DVD, collector cards and travel clock. Was not impressed with packaging, clear plastic bag !

Very nice, but no Fleet Number on side of bonnet (RTW4) although there is one shown on the photo of the model. Cheers. Peter Mine arrived today. The rear window rattles in its frame. Not bad for £2! Send for the second one and cancel I think.

I believe their series of 1:1,250 warships is also produced in a rather slap happy way too with decals missing and so on. >> Mine arrived today. The rear window rattles in its frame.
