Horsetan Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 16 hours ago, popeye said: That will keep you out of trouble through the winter. It's looking like several winters' worth of work. Definitely not a beginner's kit, but on the good side has 21mm gauge provided for, and there seems to be enough allowance for sprung suspension. If @KMCEis able to get his 800 class drawings scanned, there might even be room to squeeze in a working inside cylinder driven from the leading axle. For now, I'm reading the instructions several times over. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
declan64 Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 An MM NIR111 for a landed cost of 550-560 euro - ouch! Brexit not helping of course. I can remember when Marks were flogging these for 150-160! https://www.ebay.ie/itm/155080738656?mkevt=1&mkpid=0&emsid=e11010.m1951.l7534&mkcid=7&ch=osgood&euid=cacdeac6c6c546818976ed416c374785&bu=43113670129&ut=RU&osub=-1~1&crd=20220724093406&segname=11010 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilot_q400 Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 Bachmann Class 221 Virgin Super Voyager 5-car set. Very good price considering they're selling for almost double over in the UK. https://www.ebay.ie/itm/304575027066?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=5282-175127-2357-0&ssspo=4f3i73bbr9m&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=4f3i73bbr9m&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There doesn't appear to me be news on the next batch of new build murphy models for quite a while now so I guess prices will hold firm. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people work, so they like being able to look at their models. Still, no way of knowing if the purchaser is not going to run it on a layout. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah man thing is well if they find someone to pay that money for it, good for them, but that is away out of what I would consider paying for a loco. if someone pays that 500 that will mean that others may also look for crazy money for any future locos that appear on eBay. This is why even though I do not have one of these, I am gonna pass on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
