RMweb Gold mudmagnet Posted July 8, 2015 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted July 8, 2015 After much deliberation, I've decided to offer Orchard Road for sale! I will sell as the exhibition layout, I.e. complete with curtains and light frame / sign. To be sold WITHOUT any stock, controller or power supply for the point motors. I currently use a NCE Powercab, plugged into the front, and will leave the socket if required, but otherwise will remove for you to connect your own DCC controller. The layout packs into an enclosed box, with the legs fitting into the frame and the lights are separate items. I've exhibited extensively in the South West, but also appeared at Stafford, Warley (2014) and RMWeb live. Also featured in Model Rail and Hornby Magazine. I am happy for a new owner to continue exhibtining (with a couple of caveats to be discussed privately) and have two bookings if you want to take these on and exhibition management happy to accept the same conditions that I've agreed with them. The layout will need to be collected in person from my home (North Devon) and cash payment upon collection. I've so far not advertised elsewhere and want to gauge interest first here, so please PM me direct, please not on the thread, with questions and serious offers. I do have a figure in mind and to be blunt not prepared to accept anything much less than this figure. Again, I won't discuss values on the thread. Thanks to everyone who has commented both here and at exhibitions. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold mudmagnet Posted July 22, 2015 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted July 22, 2015 Mr Magnet sir, I see you've booked heavy rain for our trip down to Barnytubby show on Friday. Please ensure we have good weather for the rest of the weekend. Unfortunately I don't have full control over the weather. We would like a warm, but not too sunny day (not quite beach weather) for Saturday. What time are you planning to arrive? After setting up, we will be off to Wetherspoons again!

RMweb Gold Stubby47 Posted July 23, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted July 23, 2015 Don't know that route, is it better than A39 all the way? I've just realised that I was trying to avoid the roadworks at Temple - but that route doesn't... I might change it to the A39, or go all the way to Okehampton before turning northwards. The A30 is dual, most of the way, so should be quicker than the A39. See you about 4:30 Saturday... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
