I know we operate in a niche little sphere, but I do find Rails secondhand stuff to be generally overpriced. You can get a new MM 141 - admittedly in BnT - for £180, yet they are selling a "pre-owned" one for £230. Seems a little confused.

This seems to happen a lot at Rails, not just the Irish items either. And they are not known for paying decent prices for the second hand items so the markup must be rediculous.

Yes, a lot of stuff has been sitting there unsold for ages, I periodically check to see what's come in. The coaching stock seems to sell, though again some has sat, especially the weathered stuff.
