The 313s aren't quite ready to ship yet but we will have a production sample on display.  Plus we will have EP1 samples of the K-type Pullmans that you've helped us with.

cheers

Ben A.

Woah! Happy!

From the recent Model Railways Direct wagon sale, I present a couple of Peco 'Ford' items (B'Day pressie for a friend who has a penchant for 'Ford' stock*) with the centre 2 weathered 12T vans being for me. All 4 for £55 inc postage (cue smug grin :) )



* The pallet vans were a lucky find as I think, between them, @Trainfish and @AndyRA have captured the world supply ;)

A rake of 10 Dapol 7-plank wagons I've bought, these ones not for me but for my uncle who want's me to do repaints on them & custom decals fitting at some point. One for me is a second new Class 47 sound fitted version in the wrong livery in for a bit of a conversion  >:D

My haul from TINGS. Managed to haggle a little off stickered prices - saves the poor devils having to lug it all home again  :angel:



The Dapol M7 was BNIB and just £60 - ran it this AM and it's spot-on: goes like a train...  ;)

The green-livery Standard 5MT required a small tweak to the drive links to stop it clacking, and otherwise looks and runs like new.

The Dapol Hymek was also just £60 and supposedly a noisy, poor runner - it's actually mint, all accessories present, and runs very well, but you can hear a tiny plastic cog somewhere is rubbing against something, so I will dismantle and fettle in due course - more than happy just as she stands TBH.

Managing to get a couple of ever-elusive Bulleid coaches in BR(S) green was a big bonus - they seem to be scarce and pricey (£29 upwards usually, when they do show up), similar for the Dapol Maunsell coach (which FWIW is the nicest coach I've ever handled - detailing is superb, and the linking gangway bellows very well implemented.  :thumbsup:
I have literally no idea what I'm doing...

Looks like a very good bag of swag at some very good prices.

You certainly hit the jackpot with those locomotives! Well done! :thumbsup:
