THE FABULOUS BOOK IN THE BOX
We hope you enjoy the complimentary book about the APT-E written by Gareth Bayer, Kit Spack-
man and Paul Leadley. It truly is a work of art. Do you love the gorgeous APT-E/APT-P painting in
the centre spread as much as we do? We commissioned it from well-known British railway artist
John Wigston. We’re considering releasing it as a limited edition print. Please get in touch to let
us know if you are interested.
If you’ve bought your model on eBay for silly money and there is no fancy-schmancy APT-E book
inside, you might want to give that seller “negative feedback.” He’s nicked your book. You can
buy it at the shops for a mere 20 quid.
CHECKING AND ASSEMBLING YOUR APT-E
This is the trickiest part about owning an APT-E. If you can get this right, your APT-E will provide
you with decades of pleasure and joy. Screw it up, and you will throw your APT-E against the wall
in frustration by the end of the afternoon. Our warranty does not cover overarm throws.
Please note that if you wish to replace the wheelsets with EM or P4 wheelsets, we advise that you
test your APT-E thoroughly and run it in on OO gauge track first.
