Yes, Garry was right to tell me not to doubt, the 64XX and St Ives Branch B set coaches have arrived. To avoid thread drift, I will take the discussion on the items to the appropriate threads on the forum. All I can say about both the loco and the coaches is wow. It has to be one of the nicest, most well constructed locomotive that I own in any scale. Just a reminder that Lionheart are still offering the St Ives B set of coaches for £200 https://www.lionhearttrains.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=53 They are still an absolute bargain for that price with interior lighting, a working tail lamp, die-cast bogies. They are superbly finished. If you have any O gauge BR Western Region tank engine, these are not to be missed. The correct tank engine would really be the forthcoming 45XX from Dapol / Lionheart. I will be eagerly awaiting these to be delivered. it’s certainly a box that I didn’t manage to sneak past my wife that’s for sure! 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinda tempted to have them to make my 3 steel carriers a train before my Accurascale ones turn up. These container wagons are cheap too I think, as they should come as pairs (no responsibility assumed if they don't ): http://herefordmodels.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=369_370_377_386_389&products_id=5673 http://herefordmodels.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=369_370_377_386_389&products_id=6922 Just over £30 a pair and I am pretty sure they are 60ft wagons so a good £/m ratio.

Trojmiasto Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 (edited) I was thinking about the format of this thread following on from newbryford's reminder regarding its purpose. Personally, I recently missed out on the Lionheart deal which I thought was absolutely fantastic. I know that I looked at the latest updates on the page on the day, however I didn't check back on the thread later on. The main reason for that was because all of the updates to the thread were around the subtleties of the Amazon pricing algorithm, none of which contained a bargain and to be honest with you I got a bit fed up with checking back constantly as it felt like people would just keep posting along those lines for the rest of the day. We are getting to a similar position again now. The odd poster is putting up individual items, but the majority are from the same location - Ellis Clark and Hereford Models. Thats great, but in amongst that there are various posts on items that people have had (including the Lionheart models), opinions on whether something is a bargain or not (including myself in that!) and queries over postage charges for individual suppliers, to name a few. Is anyone here familiar with the site hotukdeals? I can't help but feel that the format there would greatly help the content of this thread. This question is really addressed to a moderator, but in essence would there be a possibility to have a dedicated section of the forum to bargains akin to the Modelling Questions, Hints and Tips that this thread sits in now? When a bargain is found, people just simply start a new thread within that section and any discussions or feedback from that bargain is contained within that specific thread. Then, the core topic at the top remains the bargain, and this can be edited by the original poster should they wish to add any further bargains, along with the discussion below. For example - you would have a Ellis Clark thread started by the original poster who posted the link to it initially. Then, any discussion on bargains from that page, or any links to bargains from that site would all be contained there. They wouldn't be in the thread dedicated to, Hattons, for instance, so you are not having to trawl through pages and pages of comments not related to bargains - you can literally just go to individual threads and find what you need. Likewise, you wouldn't receive notifications for threads that you didn't want to follow, such as the `A. Oakes is no-where near where I live so why are you posting about it' brigade. The threads will rise and fall as and when new bargains are posted. What do others think of this? Edited May 3, 2020 by Trojmiasto 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
