Just a quick point on the data stock level. It's important to distinguish between Hornby's entire stock of products and Hornby's website. Much like other retailers, hornby.com receives an allocation from the Hornby warehouse. I presume it receives first priority for additional allocations. That's why the 08 shunter on hornby.com sold out repeatedly and then was restocked. Basically, Hornby's warehouse allocates more of their supply to hornby.com as needed. The data stock level is a helpful tool to track the pace of sales, but it can be difficult to gauge when exactly something will be sold out for good. 

 

And with that nerdy explanation, I shall see myself out... 🤣

Thanks, that makes sense and is a better explanation than I managed, even if not entirely dissimilar. It makes it harder to judge actual stock levels of course, but the website is a decent guide to broad stock remaining. If Last Few is showing, they’re presumably having to juggle stock allocations for what they have left.
