We were gonna go DCC, but we couldn't afford to chip every single loco!

Yeah, clearance sales because they want rid of them!

Heljan being massively over priced does not make 15% less a bargain. True, but in this day and age, every penny saved helps! :wink: The price is a real barrier to my enjoyment of the hobby, and I'm sure I'm not alone in that respect. :cry: I can assure you mate, you are not alone. :( And it's about...

Considering the overpriced Heljan 47s, I think this is great value for money. Some stands were selling them for up to £80! :o Now to me, £80 is far too much, but £64.50 is ok. :) As for the DCC, I'm unsure. I know that there is a DCC funny black sleeve thingy that you have to insert before you us...

Yes it will set me back just a little bit eh?! :lol: But I'm only 17 so I'd rather spend my hard earned on models than drugs, alchohol and cigerettes! :x I too hope that Hornby do the EWS version instead of the EW&S version, as I prefer the later one. The Corus one would be great too, but then so wo...

I'm also looking forward to the new Bachmann 150s. I'll definately be getting all four of those!

As for the 60, I'm gonna get the Mainline blue one, the Mainline grey one and the EWS one too!

As soon as money permits of course..........

Yeah I mean the new liveried ones due to be released by Bachmann this year.

They are:-

WYPTE Metro
First Keolis Transpennine Express
First ScotRail

I'm not bothered about the ScotRail one, but that one is due to be released before the others.

Hi all, I just thought I'd add my comments about the new Hornby 60. :) I have to say that they are FANTASTIC! The lights, the livery, the shape, the detail the WHOLE DAMN THING! :D I picked one up today from Rails Of Sheffield at the Festival of British Railway Modelling in Harrogate. It was only £...

Hi there,

For the Class 60 around £35, as it is a respray and unique.

IF ANYONE ELSE IS SERIOUSLY INTERESTED IN ANY THESE ITEMS PLEASE LET ME KNOW ASAP, AS THEY ARE PART OF A BATCH OF MODEL RAILWAY ITEMS THAT ARE DUE TO BE LISTED ON EBAY TOMORROW. THANK YOU!

Hi Chris, Neither of the two items you have asked about have had anything done to them, except the 37 has the coupling removed at one end (not by me) and a Lima snowplough fitted (by me to tidy it up a little - looks better now.) The Bogie PTAs are in retail condition apart from one tiny chip. We we...

I wish Hornby would do replacement motors for their s**tty HSTs.

Even if they did though, it would only be to the same s**tty standards as a normal one.

That's why we have all the Lima ones instead...............

Hi there, We were looking for around £15 including P + P for the Lima Mk3. For the Bachmann 37, probably around the £35 mark, as it is weathered. Thank you for your interest. We also have some others:- 2 x Lima Virgin Mk 2 TSOs (C + B) Lima Class 60 Loadhaul 4 x Lima 102T PTA Bogie Tipplers in BSC...

The one I'm selling is in a similar state to your picture.

I'm not too sure about DCC, it's too expensive for me! I couldn't face doing hundreds of engines with it!

Anyone interested in the following? If so, let me know.

Lima 37154 Transrail
Bachmann 37419 EW&S
Lima Mk3 TSO Virgin 'B'
