Shane McD Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Hi Lads, Apologies for opening some old wounds here... Back in Christmas 1977 - Yes, 1977 - I received from Santa a C.I.E. Orange Livery Train Set comprising of the R.768 Hymek Class 35 Engine along with two carriages - R.720 Mark 2 Open and R.721 Mark 2 Brake. To the best of my knowledge it was boxed as one set along with track (standard oval) and a cardboard tunnel (I think). There is no record on the HornbyGuide website of this set or the carriages - the engine is mentioned under "Uncatalogued". Any hows, I still have the engine (in fact I have two) and the carriages. Thoughts on the value? I see someone selling the carriages individually with a box (not even a complete box or the right one) for £60 each!! The engines are in need of a lot of TLC and one actually is presently not operational. Cheers, Shane McD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
