Useful reference ressources for those N scale modellers out there seeking previously released models (sorry if these are already common knowledge)

[Michanglais]

Don't know if anyone has mentioned them before but a couple of sites I've been using https://www.spur-n-datenbank.de/ and https://www.spurweite-n.de/ncontent/ndb/ndb-search.asp give tons of info on previous releases in N, along with estimated values and even an ebay.de search option.

 

I also use picclick.com as a search tool for all ebays. It's how I found my HO re 460 New Look on ebay.co.uk - don't know how accurate it is but it seems to save a lot of time going through all the different EU ebays...

I find spurweite-n particularly helpful as it includes a good selection of photos and information on when models were in the catalogues (something I often have difficulty finding out when looking at second hand / pre-owned listings).  
 

Not just Swiss N either of course: I’ve been using it for German N.  Good call, Keith.

Yes, they are both common knowledge to stalwart European N gaugers, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't mention them!

 

I take the values thing with a bit of a pinch of salt as I don't think it is a terribly reliable 'algorithm'

 

 

The 'definitive' list for Swiss N is:
