Maybe if we all got on Heljan case they may wilt under the pressure :roll: :lol: (well they do OO why not O)Phill Dyson said:Yes it was far better than the Hornby version, I've still got mine somewhere.........complete with an early attempt at weathering , a RTR O gauge version would be nice.....but I'm not holding my breath :roll:
They'd have to do better than their OO one, though... that had some howlers too! All the same, chances are it'd cost less than the JLTRT kit... [/quote:31xz1r6q]Jordan said:[quote=""lancer1027"":31xz1r6q]

Not many I would have thought, especially when you consider the Heljan is better & less than half the price, I do hope Heljan continue to produce them, as the last batch seem to have just about sold out now , sadly though perhaps it was a slow seller & has put them off producing a Western ( the 47 & 37 seem to have sold a lot quicker)Jordan said:I also think a decent Heljan Western would sell... I don't know how we'd ever find out, but I do wonder what the impact of the Heljan Hymek was on sales of the JLTRT Hymek, as they were released around the same time, and also prices of the Heljan one have fallen.
The Easy build coaches i have seen looked pretty good value.Phill Dyson said:I did hope that Heljan's venture into 7mm might have been followed by some other manufacturers , I will have a good look at the Mk1's when the production ones come out( I saw the prototypes at Telford) but as you say there are a lot of good kit alternatives about at a fraction of the cost :? & the SMR/Concept RTR MK1's look very promissing too
I do love those Dapol Hymeks , 2mm/N scale could do with a nice Western though.
