We are now in position to give a more definitive update for the Sidings 4CD box sets. The manufacturers are looking to have the stock with us by the end of March. It isn’t as soon as we would have hoped, but they’re erring on the side of caution with this timeline. We will then need to get stock to our distributors and then into shops, so the timeline will be slightly different for retailers in the UK, EU and rest of the world. This story will be updated when we have specific dates.

To shed a little more light on what’s been going on behind the scenes – in addition to getting the missing photo booklet added to the packages, the boxes themselves were not produced to the specification we ordered. In consultation with the factory, we made the decision to re-manufacture the boxes so they’re more in-line with the previous Craven Faults box sets. This has taken much longer than anticipated, but where Craven Faults is concerned it feels like it’s worth going the extra mile to get these things right.

Many thanks for your patience in all of this. There is light at the end of the tunnel.
