WRENNEIRE Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Darstead produced Tin Plate coarse scale models back in the day They have had a reinvention in the last couple of years and although they stated they were staying true to the old companys values their new range of locos looks stunning, very detailed for coarse scale Theit coaches still have the tin plate "toy" look but their new wagon range looks impressive Couple of UK based agents so it may be available a bit cheaper from the UK, at least the postage would be half or so.

Weshty Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Puts a huge bid in to see what the highest bid is and if its too much he retracts, complains about postage being too high etc. Jayzus but that is just scandalous.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WRENNEIRE Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 These are available at any of the fairs I do with Chris Dyer RRP £165 or €200 depending on the rate However liveries and running numbers are limited to whats available on the day S/F will not have any new Irish outline bits till Feb at the earliest and then it depends on what he has produced, not what you want Looking at the Box for the A that sold its for A7 in Black/Orange/White livery so I reckon there are some more bits to come from this seller An L149439-1 set that this seller had listed was sold to an American friend of the forum for €103. A bargain compared to what this set made 3 years ago! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He makes a fine wagon does Tom. An unusual prototype as you say, too - makes an interesting comparison to modern day Tara wagons. -Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

railtec-transfers Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 They look like a stunning little freight rake! What donor us under the D303? The shunter is a Hornby. I think it's almost the last of Hornby 08s that I have laying around. When I get the chance to do myself another 301 class it'll be a Bachmann, of which I have several with sound. I wonder how similar the 301 class sound is to the British 08?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
