Why vinyl?
Electra Rail Graphics overlays are printed on high-quality vinyl, which allows you to re-livery your model with minimum fuss. We have two media types, white vinyl with cut windows - ideal for modern, bright liveries and clear-backed vinyl, which is used for more classic vehicles with complicated window arrangements.
Why is my order taking so long?
Since June 2023, Luke and Kylie have taken over Electra Rail Graphics from Adam and print the vinyls in-house using a printer / cutter. We aim to turn around all orders as quick as we can but there are occasionally problems. Some designs do take longer than others to complete and we do both manage full time careers. The printer can be a very temperamental beast and some vinyls may take one or two tries to get them just right.
I e-mailed you but haven't heard anything back....what's going on??!!
Yep, this does happen now and again. We are very much modellers first and business people second, so if we've have forgotten to reply or you have not heard anything back from us after three days, please give us a nudge. As a two person operation, real life can sometimes interrupt the serious business of model railways. We can also be reached via the Electra Rail Graphics Facebook page.
Please also note that we have changed the email address which is now enquiries@electrarail.co.uk
Can you do vinyls for a Class XYZ?
We are always happy to look at new products. The main criteria for new lines are:
1) Is there an RTR model or 3D Print to use as a base?
2) Will it appeal to a wider market?
3) Is it do-able? We will at least attempt most liveries but some may need additional artwork.
4) We also require the permission of the owner of the branding to allow us to reproduce their logos.
We may not own the particular model in question, so we might request a loan to get the dimensions scanned in and prepare the artwork.
I hear Electra Rail Graphics has been taken over - what will happen from here?
Adam has sold Electra Rail Graphics to Luke and Kylie- who have purchased a new printer. We plan to carry on as normal whilst making as many improvements as possible to the existing graphics as we go along.
Where can I get news and updates?
The Electra Rail Graphics Facebook page is updated periodically with product info, real world railway news and announcements.
