They dont make life easy do they?I built a couple of NQLTRT GUVs a few years back and certainly cursed the underframing aspects of the builds, but they turned out ok in the end - they both went to satisfied buyers.

Inside framed vertical planked Syphon G is one parcels vehicle we could do with in the larger scales ........strange that manufacturers duplicate stuff like Guv's when there are obvious gaps in the market

Phill - After much ear bending from me, Chris Hillier (Hurn Models), is working on a kit for the diagram 062 Siphon G, which has vertical planks and sliding louvres on the lower bodysides. They lasted well into the BR blue era.

Well both the Diag. 062 & 033 vehicles were in the PWP range - I don't know if they ended up with ABS Models or Peter Beasant.
I will look forward to the release of your Syphons......especially the Diag 062Both will again feature in our new range of Siphons & Monsters for release next year.
Dan,
Well perhaps first he could finish the Bogie Sideframes for the Hawksworth Full Brake - still don't have mine!

Apparently, the Siphon G shares the same heavy duty bogies as the Hawksworth Full Brake, so they must be on Chris's list of things to do. I believe someone other than Chris does the pattern making for these though, which might explain why they're not yet available.

there is no chance of Sealink livery if I had the time/money of the more 'modern' liveries NSE or inter city would tickle my fancy.
