Small list for me this year...

1970's vehicles
MGR wagons
Assorted BR vans
Random lineside clutter

I'll be doing more looking this year rather than shopping...

Anyone seen that Modellbahn Union has commissioned 3 models from Dapol, all supposedly available at the show in limited numbers:-

A3 Flying Scotsman in BR Blue (ref MU10003 and limited to 200)
A4 Mallard in wartime black (ref Mu10004 and limited to 100)

The A3 was talked about this time last year - then all went quiet    Can't say I care for the Gresleys in black, so I'll give this A4 a miss 

Where did you hear of these ?

Hi Mike,
Small paragraph in this month's Railway Modeller (page 773)

Cheers 

[edit] Just checked the MU website - apparently both the A3 (BR blue  ) and A4 are in stock, 139E each (call it £120).

Hi Gang;

Hopefully a Scotrail Saltire 170 (or two) if the prices have reduced a little from the first 6 week price fixing.
Then anything else that takes my fancy!!!

Later;

Funnily enough, to help extra fund the TINGS extravaganza I'm selling old junk at a local car boot this weekend, I'm also off to one of these 'weigh in' places for old clothes.
Gone are the days of charity clothes bags. What I do now is fill an old case full of clothes and other rags then weigh the whole lot in a oner. You will be surprised how much extra cash you can generate.

Trouble is, my wardrobe is looking rather lean now

Yup!

i'll be the dude dressed in vest and shorts

Last year i went intending to spend £40 on some goodies from the NGS stand, but i came away spending £170 on two Brits from Dapol and a Manor from Cheltenham!

This year i'm going with a budget but no real list of things i'm after, well i say that but there are three things i'm definitely after:
A third NGS Queen Mary
A few more JB Stock boxes
Any cheap 372-136 Farish Black 5's

So no doubt i'll come back with much more

Silly question:

Last year I signed up to the NGS....so this year it will expire....can I renew at the stand?

Hope so, fancy a Queen Mary (and before the resident loons get in, the Brake Van...naughty  )

Apart from that if I wonder over to Dapol and find a reasonable NSE 121 that may find a home with me.

The only other things stock wise I would like are Rail freight BAA's, but seeing as I would like 6 or so this may wait until another time...budget tighter now I am well on the way to growing up

I'm the same as Peter above, hoping to find money from somewhere.  I'll be putting my hand down the settee and hoping to find some cash.

If I can find anything to spend, I'll probably be buying some scenic items for my British layout, Ruffield, and some box cars or similar for my American layout.  If I can find enough, I'll hope to buy a Class 60 or an SD70ACe or similar.

Yes you can, Ann will quite happily take your cash off of you. I always time my renewal for TINGS as I find it easier to pay cash. Not this year though as I bought a 3 year membership last tome and beat the membership rise  ;-)

Still haven't sorted out my shopping list yet, depends how much SWMBO leaves me with after my weeks leave before hand.

See you all there, I'll be on the DEMU stand as usual.

Regards

Neal.

I'm hoping to buy:

Peco Code 55 track and points for fiddle yard

Some NGS Warwell wagons

Some PG Models Warriors and Warwell carrying frames

A couple of sheets of Redutex

Why not renew on-line ?

Because it's flaming difficult getting cash through the via the internet to the NGS 

Not everyone uses plastic....
