  1. Bit like any preserved vehicle really, plane,train,boat or automobile.........
  2. Wont know til its over either way. Well now its been posted on here its hardly going to be a bargain anymore
  3. If you are intending to bid pm the seller offering to pay postage before the auction ends as you may be refused bidding automatically otherwise
  4. Ah sure its "in perfect used condition"
  5. 'Fools and their money'
  6. Got the last 1 out of Hawkins St today - like the old days seeing the model being removed from the display case and placed into its box.
  7. Doubt whether you will hear much of this again sadly - and why pull a 3 year old thread from its slumber...........
  8. More than one bonkers collection out there - I know of one with 37 141's, 12 181's, 18 071's, 3 111's, 32 201's, 2 208's, along with 55 Cravens and eventually 72 MK2D's. At least this collector feels no need to put a crap website online to show it all off with, that anyone would care of course
  9. Yup, still stocking up on substandard material.
  10. All that money and he cant afford a decent website
  11. 225 is little more than a rolling shell now on accommodation bogies, most useable parts including the fuel tank removed
  12. 0000 Paintbrush.........
  13. You obviously have not heard of the term 'Wealthy American Tourists'. At least on a train you get constant scenery and not sea and sky for half the journey. This train will sell out
  14. Test the brake fluid by rubbing a small bit of it with a cotton bud onto the model. Its been known to dissolve certain plastics.... Also take a sharp knife to the model to remove all the mould lines..
  15. i dont care anymore
  16. Ah, that old chestnut - Next!!!
  17. I quite like that, and an easy shape to model. Could even be modelled and a mould made of it..........
  18. All the progress made and Silver Fox continues to be stuck in reverse gear. Feed the gullible and line your pocket while your at it Dont forget how upset people are re some RTR coaches being the wrong colour etc. At least they were what they were were. They were not gristle dressed as steak
  19. The ideal chance to create a proper replica of a D and its lost......
  20. Did you read this bit on the ITG site? If your offered money for something thats going to sit and rot/get wrecked otherwise take it. Preservation involves a lot of realism, not just hopes and dreams
  21. Sounds like he had bitten off way more than he could chew, the only company that has got better after a takeover is Shawplan
  22. Can do a lot better, SSM being a good starting point
  23. Where are you based, how much are you willing to pay and do you have kits/donor Mk3's
  24. IE did want the RPSI out at one point but given the interconnector will not not happen there is no rush. The eventual plan is for a separate base. As a member of the Dublin carriage crew there is plenty to do
  25. And what happens when their boiler tickets expire . No need for them all to be in service together. Dont forget the carriages too, thats where the revenue/passengers travel
