The cheap Class 60s appear to have gone for now, but as with everything on Amazon, the more people that look or buy, the higher the price goes.

 

However, I’ve just ordered these two items, R3412 BR Early Crest S15 for £82.69 with free delivery, as cheap as I can find anywhere when you take postage into account, plus you can pay in 5 instalments if you wish, which makes it a pocket money purchase for a decent 4-6-0 locomotive.

Also, for those Southern region modellers, a rather cheap Maunsell at £20.84 as I type, 2p less than I paid 5 minutes ago :no:

The links are for Amazon Smile, you can nominate a charity and Amazon make a small donation fir all eligible  purchases.

 

The S15 does appear to be from the batch that has dodgy motors, so it will be worth running the model while still under warranty , so you can get the motor replaced if necessary. Maybe Hornby have done this on latest ones?

Kernow have found a couple of Hornby Royal Scots (46165 The Ranger) in their stockroom, it was previously showing as out of stock.  https://www.kernowmodelrailcentre.com/p/56201/R3558-Hornby-Royal-Scot-Class-Steam-Locomotive-46165 

Several places have this model on offer, but this is the cheapest I have seen it: £89.99.
Good luck!

The next 4 diesel related bookazines by Irwell Press are available for a bundle price of £35 with free delivery as and when they are published from classicmagazines.

Priced at £12.99 each seems a reasonable offer to me.

Usual caveat, just a happy customer.

365games.co.uk (Hornby stockists) currently have 10% off everything with the code BLOWOUT10. 
 

One particularly good deal that stood out is R3632 Unrebuilt MN in Express Passenger Blue - currently £161 elsewhere but on here for £153, which with an additional 10% off brings it down to under £138.

As yet they haven't

 

That doesn't mean they aren't allowed to.

 

It looks like there isn't massive stock levels anywhere so they probably aren't in a rush to shift.

 

Bure Valley have it at £136 BTW in case anyone interested gets screwed by the Amazon algorithm.

Another Amazon deal, don’t know how to do a link from the app but if you search for 

 

Hornby Gauge Going Home 70th Anniversary of The End of WWII Train Pack

 

it will bring up the black 5 and 3 coach set for £289 but there is a used one listed below for £120 plus £4.02 postage, seems pretty reasonable going by eBay and google prices
