12 inch to the foot 88DS, anyone?

5k! They're having a giraffe! I'd want something a lot bigger than an 88DS for that sort of money. A friend of mine has just bought a nice little 6 coupled Fowler diesel for much less, although it does require some work to get it back in service it's basically complete and not in bad condition mechanically, plus having a spare engine for it.

I showed the advert to my girlfriend but rather than share my enthusiasm for owning my own loco, she confiscated my credit card instead!!

 

Wonder if it'll still be available by the time I've got enough overtime in to cover it and haulage?

 

Of a side note, am I right in remembering seeing a picture of one of these done up in LoadHaul livery?

One of the 88DS at the DVLR, at Murton, is the unfortunate recipient of that vile colour scheme (I can't bring myself to call it a livery).
