Title: classes 26 & 33
Post by: steve836 on April 29, 2020, 02:56:26 PM
 Not sure this is right place but if not i'm sure a kindly mod will move it.
I am on Rails of Sheffield mailing list and they have just e-mailed me to say that they are offerinc class 33 and class 26 diesel locos in N gauge at about £20 off. Not my area but thought if anyone is after one they could approach them.

I've just checked their website. No offers that I can see there so I guess the e-mail must have a loyalty code or something?

The email listed new releases priced at £112-ish, not special offers at once in a lifetime prices.

RRP shown as £132 ish. As I said not my area. Just thought it might be of interest to Southern or Scottish modellers.

These are the new livery releases.

I am annoyed at the timing as no way I can justify the two I would like.

But £112 with free post isn't bad these days.

Sensible, but no.

In these times spending a frivolous £112 on myself just won't make sense.

Hopefully things improve before these become hard to get hold of.

You're so strong willed >:D
As someone remarked( can't remember who) I can resist anything except temptation.

Ha!

Strong willed maybe, but guilt is a powerful thing. Wouldn't enjoy them and that's the point isn't it?

How can it be guilt when I've had two from this batch on order for almost four years!
Gluttony perhaps. Greed yes. But not guilt.
