Dave47549 Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 I am having a clear out of Nickel Silver and old stock Brass GWR number plates. Nickel Silver ones are now just 50p per pair and on sale Brass ones are £1 per pair. These cover a lot of locos - 2251, 2301, 5700, 8750, 1400, 4800, 5800, 6400, 7400, 9000 as well as ex Cambrian and other miscellaneous absorbed and non absorbed locos. See https://www.coastlinemodels.co.uk/bargains-galore-postal-changes/ Shouldn't this be in the Buy & Sell section? Keith Dunno & don't care. All I know is it's just given me a shove to order a couple of plates & I got them for a bargain* price, so I'm a happy bunny & thanks and good luck to the proprietor. * A staple requirement in Bargain Hunters Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold 57xx Posted September 9, 2016 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 9, 2016 Kernow MRC have got a Hornby GWR 28xx on sale at a 44% discount. http://www.kernowmodelrailcentre.com/p/39473/R3106-Hornby-Class-28XX-Steam-Locomotive-number-2807 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
aforsyth Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Worth mentioning for anyone who has an 'old' Hornby Elite DCC controller hanging around: Hattons is selling the Hornby PC software RailMaster (which is apparently provided with e-Link too) for £5 only, down from £49. RailMaster would seem to add new life to Elite-based control (particularly if the PC monitor is touch sensitive), making it far easier to operate locos with multiple DCC sounds, for example. http://www.hattons.co.uk/36087/Hornby_R8144_RailMaster_PC_Model_Railway_Control_System_on_DVD/StockDetail.aspx I might pick this up myself at that price!

See https://www.coastlinemodels.co.uk/bargains-galore-postal-changes/ While only one of the two plates you stock was included in the offer, I still think the usual price of £2 for a set of plates was a bargain as it is. For the sake of adding some paint it's a lot cheaper than usual for GW plates (and the postage was cheap as well.) Will be putting in an order for a custom batch covering the rest of the non names locos for Brent in due course! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought a couple of the Lidl daylight LED lamps for the workbench today - really well made, good light spread, and easy on the eyes. Recommended ! Regards, John Isherwood.

Dazzler Fan Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 + They come in a nice White 100W equivalents too.

Dazzler Fan Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 A bit mystified by this .................... John, Why? I was referring to the couple of Lidl daylight LED lamps you bought for your workbench. LED bulbs also come at 100W; with warnings on the packs against use in enclosed fixtures too. Noel Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ejstubbs Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 Why? He's probably confused because, while very probably accurate, the information you provided was not relevant to the product under discussion. Yes, the product has an LED bulb in an "enclosed fixture" but it's designed and sold as that, not as an aftermarket LED add-on/enhancement to an existing product. (I'll admit that that fact might not be immediately obvious, given that the item being discussed no longer appears on Lidl's web site.) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold phil_sutters Posted September 23, 2016 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 23, 2016 Planning on a large period development with pantiled roofs? I have just used a few square inches of a part-used roll of B&Q embossed lining paper to tile a small lineside building. I think I have enough to do the rest of the town and most of the surrounding area and all for less than a quid! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheesysmith Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 I have had a email update from the new modellers shop that Hornby class 50 ETH detailing pack is back in stock. If you are modelling AC electrics or even the EMUs, this pack includes the MU jumper cable from the class 50 as well as the ETH jumper, so comes in very useful. I haven't had time to check if it is in stock at other Hornby spares suppliers yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold unravelled Posted September 24, 2016 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 24, 2016 In the ex Alders store in Croydon, the model shop outlet is now sellling most items remaining at 50%. This is mainly modelzone stock. Not that much remaining, but various Oxford diecast items, Woodland scenics kits at £8.00, grass mat, paints etc. Also various thicknesses of clear plastic sheet (A4ish). I'm going back with a torch, as the lighting leaves a lot to be desired... Dave Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenny Emily Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Beales in Bolton will be closing soon. The Hornby stock in there isn't marked down much, and I expect that's because it still technically belongs to Hornby. However, expect a lot of shelf worn older stock to turn up somewhere else in a firesale when they do finally close, as none of it could really be moved on as pristine new stock. Quite apart from the fact that some of it has been sat there for years, such as the class 423s and the first release of the newer model Eastern region brake vans and Catfish.
