The chances of getting 'one offs' such as 'Lion', 'Kestrel' etc are virtually nil." you never know--one might just take notice. #47

General Discussion / Re: new cordless drill.Last post by Bigmac - May 28, 2026, 05:59:07 PMi still cant understand why the larger n gauge manufacturers dont go all in for a really sure fire popular model that hasnt been produced before. IN my case it would be ex lms princess, or a patriot. Ex GW would be King or county. Southern would be a Nelson. I dont model eastern region.
Of these i think a King produced in high volume and attractively priced would be a world wide best seller. #50

A Peco 5-plank wagon was 40p and a steel mineral wagon 44p. I think the 15' wheelbase tank wagons were about 65p. The Jubilee was £9.50. There were only a handful of UK RTR locos, and half of those were not to scale or in some cases even recognisable as UK outline! Britannia was £7.17. The Farish Holden tank and 94xx pannier were around a fiver. i cant remember prices when i started--around '75 i think. First loco was the lima 4f--then the farish 94xx. I quickly collected all the british outline stuff--then bought a fleischmann 38. That did it for me--i sold all my british outline and went all out for german steam and old electrics. | Please Support Us!
