A1 Peppercorns / TORNADO

It is a matter of regret that the Darstaed model of TORNADO has not yet appeared but other production has had to come first. Most collectors, including myself, do not realise how much time, effort and above all, cost goes into bringing a new O gauge model to fruition. But all of you will know that this problem is not unique to Darstaed! But when it comes, it will be a fine model.

We have an exclusive agreement with the A1 Trust, owners of TORNADO, to produce a coarse scale model. Anyone else trying to do so will in breach of this agreement. Anyone is free to make and market an A1 Peppercorn. What no-one else can do is advertise and sell a TORNADO version.

The Darstaed model will come in a beautiful mahogany box produced in SE Asia by a manufacturer of cigar humidors and will cost around £850.

Numerous orders have been taken and you are asked to indicate your interest if you have thoughts of buying one. This is without deposit or obligation but does help us in planning production.
