Very nice.

I think they were around for a while and the subject of a bit of discounting to shift the last few, but all sold out a fair while back. I bought a "Rance and Reading" one as it had a connection to Chesham where I lived when I was little.

It runs very well. There's a lot of clearance around the crank pins but the axles are geared together.

Handsome loco, but the quartering looks a bit out. I suspect it will run like a three-legged dog.

I woke up to an email. 

Smashing lining on that livery

This one arrived today.



Dapol are selling these off at £65+p&p, but only DC and only in this livery. I thought I'd better grab one whilst I could. Next job is to see if it works and run it in.

Have fun,

No longer showing on rails website. Have they all sold out ? or just withdrawn.
I have one thats surplus to requirements that i was going to carve up for a side project but if theyve all gone the second hand prices will start climbing again.

I've had nothing but good dealings with Osborns in years past. Yes, the response to emails might have been sluggish sometimes, but the good old phone call was always received with a cheery reply and action.
