CONFIRMED
RELEASE FROM ATLAS EDITIONS I can confirm that the following model has now been released: 4649123 ERF LV Flatbed CONFIRMED RELEASE FROM OXFORD
DIECAST This model is believed to be identical to Atlas Editions model 4649105 but is marketed in Oxford packaging and with an Oxford stock code. I understand from Oxford Diecast that as part of the licensing agreement with Atlas Editions, Stobart will take 500 of each Atlas model for sale through their own shops and Oxford Diecast will be releasing a few of the Atlas models in their own packaging. The Oxford models will not go on sale through Oxford until they have been released by Atlas Editions for 12 months. Monday 30th September 2013 |

BACK
FROM HOLIDAYS I had a great holiday and managed to fit in some Eddie spotting with a couple of hundred new spots recorded. I visited Carlisle and Newark depots during my travels and thanks to the Tracking App for my iPhone I managed to spot loads on our journey to and from Scotland. My wife joked that she should get honorary membership to the Spotters club for her skills using the App whilst I was driving and my daughter was shouting out fleet names as we passed them! Whilst visiting Carlisle Deport I photographed Stobart Rail Scania R560 Fleet number RV232 as represented by Atlas Editions model number 4649121.
