...and yet these items will suddenly become worthless for Inheritance Tax purposes if the seller drops dead.

More so if the relative has no idea or interest and brings in a dealer to clear the collection.

Yet suddenly change again when they offer them for sale.

£115 sterling for a Hattons six-wheeled passenger brake - thus about €150 maybe, plus brexit / customs / postal charges..... and these things were about £40-odd new.

I know there's some validity (perhaps less than many think) in the idea that if someone's prepared to pay a certain price for something, in a free world, why not. Go for it, and if you don't want to, toddle off.

But there is also the wise old adage that "fools and their money are easily parted".

Despite missing the black and tan one, due to a mistake by Hattons in my order originally, I will not be answering that ad.

Aha! The elusive 217 class. Must confess the introduction of such a class passed unnoticed by me, as did a "yellow livery"............

But £46 is a much better price than the stuff mentioned above.
