Hi Rob

 

Martin's boots are certainly  a big pair to fill, but Gavin our vice chairman has taken up the role with plenty of enthusiasm.

 

Here is our second day offer. Theses never made it to eBay, as they were sold out at Warley & Peterborough 

 

4-- 39-650DC    BR MK2F FO First Open Blue & Grey DCC  £62.50

 

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/163451824462?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649

 

I hope that you all had a great day yesterday, I'm going to see my team get thrashed by the present Premier League Champions, but they surprised me  with a win in west London on Saturday.

 

Have a good day whatever you are doing.

 

Cheers

Good Morning Everyone

 

Thanks Pete for the kind words, we try to give the best service we can. We know that we are restricted due to having no test track, and that the fact  I have no modelling experience, but I package, and post all the models, and my wife does all the brown paper wrapping. If you are interested in adding some more BAA's keep the 2nd of January in your diary.

 

Here is our fourth day of offers. No so much of a price reduction, but three locos which feature the number four, all three being rather popular and two which haven't been on eBay for a week or so.

 

5-- 32-650DS     D3 Skiddaw  £181.50 plus £4.50 postage  https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/163455156293?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649

 

5--32-651A       44006  Whernside  £117 plus £4.50 postage  https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/153319841419?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649

 

4--32-819          47814   Totnes Castle   £117  plus £4.50 postage  https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/163455158311?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649

 

Can anyone on this forum help me with a question from one of my customers. He asked about the clean stripe that is on the side of 44006, I seem to remember someone  on this forum mention this is a feature on this model. Unfortunately I can't seem to find the thread. I've looked a couple of the models, and both have the same feature. If anyone could point me in the right direction, I would really appreciate it.

 

I will be going to the post office this evening, any orders before 18:00 will be included in today's postal run.

 

Cheers

Day seven of our offers, and our last for 2018, I was going to do something else, but having realised that I have to visit my local post office this evening, due to having family around all day tomorrow. I've changed my mind, and I'm offering something which I think will be quite popular. Cut off point is 18:00 again.

 

Have a great evening everyone, and thank you for your fantastic support during the whole of 2018, l look forward to it's continuation in 2019.

Happy New Year Everyone

 

Thanks for the kind words Gary. We obviously want you all to purchase as much as possible from us, to help towards the bill for the restoration of D6703/37003. We openly encourage people to buy from there local  model shops, as they are trying to put food on the table, and a roof over there head. This is one of the reasons why we limit our stock to diesel locos, and latter era coaches and wagons. 

 

Here is today's offers. A bit of a marmite selection, one which I thought we would struggle to sell because of reviews, but we sold our first allocation within a week. One which I thought would be popular, we have struggled to sell.

 

4--39-765   Mk1 TPO  POT  Stowage Van Royal Mail Travelling Post Office  £38.45  https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/153324402010?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649

Many thanks again for your support yesterday, the month of December, has possibly been one the best in the group's sales history.

 

Cheers

I ordered 4 along with some Mk2As. I also bought some Mk2s in a previous eBay offer and all items have arrived very quickly and well wrapped. It’s definitely worth checking out the C37LG store on eBay! Thank you to all of you and i’m Glad my money is going towards a good cause! Edited by sub39h

Thank you Subegh for your recent purchases, they certainly caused a domino effect, which has meant all the  MK2F TSO's, and the MK2 NSE coaches sold within the hour of your transactions.

 

Our ninth offer, is one that brings back so many happy memories for me. Seeing pairs of white stripe 37/0's and railfreight 37/5's bringing these wagons to and from Corby, powering through my my home town of Oakham.

Cut off point for the post office today is 18:00.

 

I'm going to advertise what is tomorrows offer, as it is going to be a one day ONLY event, for one of the models. Being a class 37 group, it would be rude not to feature class 37's on our final day.

 

I will be listing four class 37's, three of which are a relisting of our popular great priced models

 

8--32-781B  (37041)  £117 plus P&P

 

4--32-788  (37284)    £117 plus P&P

 

16--32-392   (37688)   £121.50  plus  P&P

 

The star of the show though is sixteen  32-393DS, which will be on offer for the one day at £195.50 plus P&P, these will be listed before 08:00 on Saturday and altered to £201.50 plus P&P on Sunday.

 

I'm asking politely though if you would show me, the C37LG and your fellow modellers  the courtesy of only purchasing one model, if anyone does abuse this I will email them asking them to reduce there order.

 

Thank you for all of your support during our twelve days of Christmas offer, I hope that you have enjoyed it as much as I have.

 

Cheers

I'm sorry for some price changing over the few days, this was done due to a genuine mistake by myself which was inexcusable. My apologies to all retailers for this.

 

Kind regards

Just to let you know we have at the moment thirty nine items on sale on our eBay site  https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/c37lg/m.html

 

If you are interested in purchasing something from us, three models are no longer on the latest availability list, or the 2019 Bachmann catalogue.

 

I have ordered a large order from Bachmann, and have received two thirds of this due to the group's credit limit (which is our choice). I might receive more of each item, but their is a strong possibility, they might be already out of stock in the warehouse.

 

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/163484916464?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649 39-755 TPO blue & grey  : six available

 

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/163505169268?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649 39-765  TPO red  :  three available

Many thanks

Good Morning Everyone

 

At last I can give some progress news on D6703/37003. Within the next couple of months it will be going into the depot at Leicester to have the power unit fully repaired. The down side to this is that the big bills will now start coming in, with a full bodywork repair plus maybe other things that might be hidden away, this is where we ask for your support.

 

If you are thinking of purchasing something from us, then please do as all monies will go towards the restoration.

 

As stated in my previous post we have received the final part of our order, included are just four more of each TPO's

 

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/163532889564?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649 39-755

 

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/163535470681?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649  39-765

 

We have lots of other Bachmann goodies to hopefully tempt you. Thank you for all of the support you have given to us already, and I hope that it continues to help get our loco back up and running.

 

Cheers

Hello everyone

 

Thanks Phil & saxo for the comments, we try to provide the best service we can provide.

 

A new nice looking gronk, arrived on my doorstep. We only have six left as some have been purchased by our members already.

 

32-122  ( 08834 in distribution livery. A nice model for an Stratford based loco like  our own D6703 )  https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/163588205417?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649  £106.20  

 

Not new, but new to us is a NSE RMB

 

39-265  https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/163588211182?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649  £33.50 plus £4 P&P

 

I would also like to promote a class 37 which, seems to be watched and viewed by many people, but hasn't sold as well, as I expected. Unfortunately it is as low as I can go, otherwise we won't be making enough profit to go towards our restoration of D6703/37003

 

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/163586235565?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649 32-392  (37688)  £117.50 plus £4.50 P&P

 

Finally I have put our popular metal badges on eBay again. If these  float, three of them are getting low in stock. 

 

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/153408008805?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649  55020  £4.00 plus 75p postage  only 20 left

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/163586257311?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649  50049  £5.00  plus 75p postage  only SIX left

Just a minor thing, the photo you have on the Ebay listing for the NSE RMB looks like the N gauge version. The description and product code look like 00 gauge, but the photo has N gauge couplings

Well the news we are all very excited about has happened. D6703/37003 entered the shed at UKRL Leicester depot, to start it's PU overhaul yesterday.

As I've stated before, if you have ever thought of purchasing something from us, now is the time. The bills are going to roll in thick,fast  and rather large. Sounds a bit rude, that does!  Thank you to all the people who have purchased something over the last few days, a gentleman in Solihull especially.

 

All the best
