201 spares

[murphaph]

Hi all,

Does anyone have any 201 spares? I am specifically looking for the pipework running along the side and bogies side frames. 

Feel free to send me a PM if you can help. Cheers!

I wonder if there will be spares available from Paddy when the new run of 201's arrive. Could be a while, I know, but he may surprise us!

Marked as spares but not sure if the parts you need are on either of them

Very curious - no prices or starting bid showing up on either chassis

If viewing on a mobile device from outside of the .ie cachement, you need to change the .ie to .co.uk in the url.

I'm sure that Wiggy is actually the chap from Wheeltappers. Neal or Neil?

What ever happened to @wiggy? He deleted loads of his own forum posts about ten years ago and kind of vanished off the forum.

Does any of you know where to get buffers or the tension lock couplings for an MM201?

[Robert Shrives]

The couplings are standard fishtail NEM couplings IIRC and so any Bachman/ hornby/ dapol would fit.  check with a coupling off a wagon?

Years ago I bought buffers from Peters Spares
They were for a Lima 201
Not sprung but had the right profile
Class 66 I think

Thanks Robert. On closer examination, I realize that the pocket was attached to the coupling and the chasis that needs couplings also needs pockets! It was only when I looked up fishtail that I noticed that it must be a two part assemby.
