I am sorry i dident reply,yes i still have this lima engine,if you want it.

if anyone wants the two i have left,they are over 7 feet long,they can have them for free,but they will have to collect them .

I have a 216 lima engine,body in very good condition chassis not so great.engine is fine with a chip.

Pictures would paint a thousand words . Thanks 

What is the location ?

Just sayin’

Hi Joe, the location is Clare

i forgot to put in the measurements,as i am new to this ,two frames measure 7ft long x 3ft wide one 5ft long x3ft and 4ft long x 3 wide.

I have 4 layout frames for sale ,two 7 foot one 5 foot and a 4 foot all for 250 euros,all in excellent condition.you would have to collect them yourself

Hi,

After years of pleasure collecting, building and running my layout at home the time has come to take it apart.

I wonder if anyone here has advice for how best I could sell everything such that it ends up in a good home. Ideally I'd have an enthusiast who was interested come and dismantle it but perhaps it'd be better to do it all individually. Unfortunately as I get older it's harder and harder to get under the layout to fix connections and replace wires etc.

Here are some photos - I also have a video I could post. Any advice is appreciated.

Another good cheap ballast is canary grit. It is meant for the bottom of the birds cage, but it is small grey stone chippings (just like branded model ballast) and comes cheap in massive cartons from pet shops. I've never actually tried it myself, but I don't see why it wouldn't work

this is a very good idea
