Alan Cumming had an inspection saloon for sale. How could I resist?

I had a bit of a splurge after a series of disappointing eBay purchases. I vowed not to buy second hand anymore, so ended up with this little clutch of new GF locos

Class 47, Class 37, Class 20 and 08. I have a class (petroleum) and another 47 (distribution) on the way.

A good collection reflecting the time period

The 47 RFD and 31 petroleum joined the shed today

Can someone tell the foreigner driving the artic he's on the wrong side of the road!

LOL.....I'm ballasting the back of the track so everything is a bloody mess at the moment. I will be glad when its all done and dry as the disruption makes it feel like I'm taking a step back.....Damn my OCD

So, didn't want one. Then I thought, "If I don't get one, they'll never come round again". Then I thought, "It doesn't fit with anything I'm doing".

Then Rails had one on FleaBay with their usual make an offer do-da. So I got tempted, what can I say, I'm weak.

£87 including postage. NO idea what I'm going to do with it but hey-ho, who doesn't love a large roster?

I do love the unusual.

Newportnobby · May 16, 2021, 08:51:50 AM

I was in the same situation when they came out. A Clayton in Oxfordshire??

I just wanted one and, if they'd done a double pack with one loco as a dummy, I'd have had that instead.

It is a lovely model, though.
