    I like the wide range of rec-tanks Dapol do, especially as specials. Does anyone know when these finally stopped being used?

    I'll check out Hattons later if I get the chance. Other than that it would be tonight.

    They do gave a good selection of this type of wagon.

    Cheers

    This one was a limited edition from Dapol for Buffers but I don't think it's in stock any more. They may do another run.

    Thanks every one had a bit of a scout around looks like out of luck may have to wait for the buffers rerun
    Hattons Ajm and a few others no joy lots of other nice stuff though better stop looking before I buy some thing I don't need.

    Thanks again
