Lawrence Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 I ordered a K4319 Saha 201 Chuo Line from Gaugemaster on October 23rd, I'm still waiting Not wishing to put too much of a downer on to this, but you may have a long wait...they are notoriously slow. It took them well over a year to finally get the KiHa110 I ordered off them...by which time I had given up and already bought two from HS. I have also been told to forget about the H0 DE10 I ordered... I'm in no hurry, fortunately, but they say it is on order and that I will get it, just didn't say when Link to comment

Guest JRF-1935 Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Hey Guys, Forgot to mention I received the Kato # 10-489 "Takara" set. Glad I ordered the Kato set and Not the Micro Ace set as I noticed from the pictures from HS Japan and HW Japan that the Micro Ace set seems to "sneak" in 2 Chiki 5500's with regards to the Kato set that has a full consist of Chiki 5000's + Yo. Did anyone else notice this? - or buy the Micro Ace set and receive 2 Chiki 5500's without the side mounted brake wheel? Just wonderin........... Rich C Link to comment
Claude_Dreyfus Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Claude, if it's of any use to you, HS currently has the DE10 in stock, I've just ordered one. http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10016882 Thanks for that Mark... I may well investigate that in the very near future... In the meantime, an order has been placed for the Kato D51-498. Hopefully will arive in time for the show we are attending... Link to comment
marknewton Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Thanks for that Mark... I may well investigate that in the very near future... I'll let you know what mine's like when it arrives, which should be soon. Cheers, Mark. Link to comment
HST. Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Just ordered a Tomix J.R. Limited Express Series Kiha71 "Yufuin no mori I" from Plaza, been looking at it for weeks and finally gave in this morning. Dave. Link to comment
Nick_Burman Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 HO = Tenshodo Toshiba Steeplecab. Unsure if it is going to be the Nankai or the Meitetsu (single headlight) version - I ordered it from a friend who is a pro modelmaker (and a NMRA MMR) in Rio de Janeiro and has connections in Japan, told him it could be any version so long it did not have a sealed-beam headlight. He ordered two (one decorated, one not) to his Japanese connection with that proviso, however we don't know which version will come. At last notice he said it was the Nankai loco (hoooray!). Should be docking sometime towards the beginning of the next week. N = Tomytec Tetsudo Collection #2. Found one on Ebay sometime ago,from a Hong Kong based vendor. Will keep a couple of cars and put the rest for sale/trade. Cheers NB Link to comment
Guest JRF-1935 Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 11 more Tomix circa 1987 freight cars plus 1 YO w/lighted tail lights and the SO80 Crane and Chiki 7000 in GREEN ! Arrived Sat - got most for less than the listed 1987 catalog price. Rich C Link to comment
