Show your Latest GB Loco and Rolling Stock Purchase.

I bought this a couple of weeks ago, it completed a couple of hours running in and the front bogie came unscrewed.  Back to the shop it went, there were no others left but I was promised that a replacement screw could be obtained from Barwell.  With the new screw fitted it is back on my layout.

I've wanted a LMS Black Five for years because I had a Hornby one many years ago; one in BR livery seemed like just the thing for my layout.





I do love the colour combination of lined black loco with crimson & cream coaches.

Added a class 70 to my modern fleet ...

Bought it direct from Freightliner's own online gift shop as it was cheaper than anywhere else.

[Trainfish]

Nice one Westbury. Even though it's not really the era I'm modelling I love my class 70 also bought directly from Freightliner.

As for my recent purchases, I bought 12 of these wagons from the local flea market/collectors' fair for £50.

S15 in Southern livery - not my era but paint job looks good.

Not able to post images at present but pics in my S15 album

[Caz]

Are these the pictures you are trying to show?

[Dancess]

Yes. Many thanks

Bought a couple of Peco 16T mineral wagons on Ebay:



Also a Graham Farish Class 08 shunter in green with wasp stripes, similar to the one based at Leamington shed in the 1960s

Purchases at Trainwest:

Three 'Dogfish', to go with the other seven in the set I already have

£201.15 spent this week which was a saving of £21.90 on the marked prices below. All but the unboxed wagons on the right were bought at Trainwest in Melksham 

EDIT: I forgot, I also won a 73 on ebay

Also at Trainwest I added a further 12 wagons to my EWS fleet pictures to follow

[Westbury]

Couldn't resist this when I saw it on ebay...

[smg id=24008 type=preview align=center caption="Graham Farish S&DJR 3F"]

New, split from set I believe

Was a a good price and a lovely little runner...

[paulprice]

Well I had a couple of additions to the fleet, well 3 actually.....but I have been a good boy lately, and Fleabay unearthed these.

The Jinties are the older Farish model, which I think is still a rather good model, which is good because I now have 7    One of them was a terrible runner, but after messing about with it, I discovered the chassis was a little bent, a bit of gentle pressure and all was well again. I must admit they will not be in this state for long, I have plans, 0-6-2T plans to be more precise.....

The Ivatt was a bargain, £30 and totally mint, in fact it looks like it had never been run, the only thing is a slightly damaged ladder on the tender.
I know its not a patch on the latest Farish example but I always wanted one as a kid and now I have one, who knows she may even escape the weathering brush, well maybe

Already mentioned this elsewhere, but Trainwest saw me come home with one of these...

[smg id=24048]

Very please to have got this set as I didn't feel like joining the Dapol club just for one when it was new.

Runs very nicely, and saw some service on "Cross Street" during the afternoon

Bought some new wagons from Chris in Prague.

Chiquita banana wagon


Castle Estates insulated van


Castle Estates tube wagon


Castle Estates 10-foot wheelbase van


"Sam's Cider" van



Latest Ebay purchase, two unpainted kit-built vans.  I'm not sure what sort of vans they are but they seem to be vacuum fitted so I'll have to paint them BR Bauxite.
