Merchant Navy In All Three Gauges
Dapol recently announced the fantastic amount of money that the modelling community had helped us raise to support the Royal British Legion, a total of £1910.00. this was donated on 29th November 2024.
As we are sure you will be aware the 8th May 2025 marks the 80th anniversary of VE Day and the end of hostilities in Europe. to commemorate this occasion and to continue helping support an organization that does so much for our nations greatest we are proud to announce the launch of a commemorative VE Day range of wagons.
Each of the three military services will be represented with their own wagon in each of the three scales in which Dapol make models. A donation will be made by Dapol to the Royal British Legion for each model sold. Please make sure your preferred Dapol stockiest has pre-ordered your wagon(s) for the armed services by the 14th February 2025.
We have had numerous requests to produce a wagon for the Merchant Navy to commemorate their service to our country and here they are. if you would like to own one or more of these wagons please ask your preferred Dapol stockiest to place a pre-order with us on your behalf by the 28th February 2025.
