I have acquired a couple of Farish 0667 coaches but I believe there was also a brake version of this 4 wheel coach.
Does anyone know the Farish catalogue number for this coach and, if you know of any that may be available on fleebay etc.
:thankyousign: :beers:
Size matters - especially if you don't have a lot of space - and N gauge is the answer!

Bob, I also have two of the 0667 and yes there is/was a brake version. One was on ebay many months ago, but I got beat at the auction, (it went for silly money),  :doh: and I have not seen one since  :'( I live in hope! If one does appear on ebay, will we be bidding against each other   ??? David.

Thanks Dannyboy. Don't suppose you know the Farish number of the coach by any chance? I guess you might wanna keep it secret if we're both looking for the same Hen's tooth.

Bob, the catalogue number of the brake carriage is 0677, the link shows the carriage, (about a third of the way down).  :beers: David.

P.S. If I come across two of them, I will let you know  :D

I have noticed a few of the four wheelers on eBay recently (1-2 months back) and some of them were well marked but others were simply "farish coach" or "n gauge coach." Often the people auctioning them apparently don't know what they are! 0.o I would love a rake of these but can't justify them to myself just yet!

repaint some Weetabix ones!!!
It seems that most Farish 4 wheel coaches are expensive so, for someone who does not yet have the skill to repaint such items, I would rather buy the correct coach if I can find one.  :beers:

The seller has a large amount of overpriced stuff, eg two *near mint" Siphons for
£32, two new ones from Hattons £22.

I know it sounds a lot but £30 for those S&DJR 4 wheel is not bad and paying that price will get me what I want.
The last lot I saw was nearly £45.
