Guest theonlydt Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Looks like some of the 77's/ EM2's are left. John. You're correct, my apologies. Had an ebay setting (postage location) that showed no items in stock - when there are actually still 39. Sorry guys and girls, my bad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grampus Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Afternoon all, For all (any?) Class 50 fans in the Lincoln area, I picked up a copy of Haynes Owner's Workshop Manual on the Class 50 (I think this is a fairly recent publication?) this afternoon from 'The Works' in Pennells' Garden Centre for £6.00 - compared with a cover price of £22.99. If anybody else is interested, there were a fair number of copies when I was in there at about 3.30 pm. Certainly worth the asking price in my view, especially since we only went there in the first place for gardening inspiration!!! Happy hunting, Paul Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Torper Posted February 21, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 21, 2018 (edited) Not trains I know, but I also like model boats. If anyone fancies dipping a toe in the water, so's to speak, there's currently an offer of three editions of Model Boats magazine for £1 - https://mb.secureorder.co.uk/MODB/PPC18/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI1M7byeq22QIV6hXTCh27qwN_EAAYASAAEgLxT_D_BwE . It does require a direct debit mandate and unless you cancel you'll subsequently pay the standard rate of £10.99 a quarter (best read the small print first).

Guest theonlydt Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Not sure how long it's been at this price, £130 down from £220. 30-525 Bachmann Shakespeare Express Train Pack http://www.kernowmodelrailcentre.com/p/42345/30-525-Bachmann-Shakespeare-Express-Train-Pack Guessing this is the whole "why don't people model preserved trains/railways?" thing. One loco, three coaches and a diecast bus for that price is pretty decent. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black 5 Bear Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Cheltenham models have been splitting these sets for a good while now. The Loco was selling at £85, whilst the brake coach is now £15 (I bought two of the latter). No Pullman coaches or the Stratford tour bus appear to be on sale though. Agreed, £130 is an absolute bargain ! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold sjp23480 Posted February 27, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 27, 2018 Do they still claim "each manual based on a full strip down and rebuild"? Sorry, didn't look that closely but it certainly had a lot of reference picture of A3s in various states of construction and servicing. It would probably be a useful reference work if you are building a kit of the same. Steve Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
