@adipullenLNER Hi Adrian, we are sorry to hear that. Do you have an outstanding preorder for any of our Genesis coaches?

@HattonsModels Shame am banned from from rails of Sheffield

@rwsnwr12 @_buggleskelly_ Hi there, we will share details of your orders along with the email addresses, which should match up with existing accounts.

@HattonsModels @_buggleskelly_ how exactly do they transfer over if I just had to make an acurascale account? Just by having the same email address?

@MrNormalDraws Hi, I'm sorry to see there has been an issue with your order. I'm unable to see any details so if you can send us a private message or an email to info@hattons.co.uk.

@HattonsModels Not only that, but they only send me half of the order without telling me if they had anymore or if it's a divided order. I tried contacting them soon after, but they were closed by the time I got my order.

I don't vent a lot in this account, but I want to inform about an order I made through @HattonsModels that wasn't fulfilled. I ordered 12 station buildings from the site as I heard they were closing, but they never gave me a tracking number on the order.

Goodbye from all of us at Hattons. Our website has now stopped taking orders and our physical store is now closed. However, you can still speak to our customer service team for a short period if you have any order issues.
