You do...

They are out there at significantly less than the RRP if you do a bit of hunting (which is what I assume you meant), but the way you phrased that post makes it sound like you think you are special and that you should not pay the going rate like everyone else...

Far from it, I know there are bargains out there, I just need to get out and hunt one down, I know a couple of places that have them sub £90 which is a bargain, I just hope they have the LMS liveried version.

Another house move despite "never again" has given me a second floor layout so Geominster Mainline & Heritage Line will be modified and enlarged with siding storage.

My Facebook Diary is Geominster if anyone wants to view it please ask, it is a private group requiring acceptance, thanks.

This then is my third version modified which has been improved from previous efforts and lessons learned.

Geominster was my first project which has now been dismantled. Having learnt so much from  previous Geominster projects this is the latest one.

Latest Youtube video is here.

Several retailers had them at the St Neots show.

Saw an LMS one on Cheltenham Model Centre's stand at Huntingdon Show today for £84.

I might nip to the Macclesfield show tomorrow to see if they have any?

The Ivatts seem to be available pretty cheap - LMS in particular, though I bought a BR one for £50 just the other week. So keep your eyes peeled - you can do way better than £84!

Cheers,
Alan

8 (eight) new Pullman coaches too - named ones being Pearl, Ruby, Robin and Thrush. They've diversified into birds!
The birds are Pullman Kitchen Firsts, the precious stones are Pullman Parlour Firsts.
The unnamed ones Nos 332 - 346 (E332E - E346E) are Pullman Kitchen Seconds, Nos 347 - 353 (E347E - E353E) are Pullman Parlour Seconds.
I ordered "RUBY" from Kernow as soon as it became available for pre-order, so long ago now that I cannot recall precisely when (but it must have been 2015) along with other new models.  The rest of the order was fulfilled after a reasonable delay - but not before a price increase was announced.  "Ruby", however, seems to have sunk without a trace.  I have been in correspondence with Kernow about the fact that Farish marked the vehicle as "out of stock" rather than "available for pre-order", but was assured by them that the model had not been received by them.  Farish are today still showing it as "available for pre-order"
I got wind of a rumour some time ago that certain items of Farish stock were stuck in a container in the hold or on the deck of a Hanjin Shipping vessel which has not been permitted to dock because the company went udders upwards and no port is willing to let the liquidator run up debts he may be unable to pay off.
Does anyone know any more about this?
