RMweb Gold Colin_McLeod Posted March 15, 2014 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 15, 2014 well i sold my peak, then got a message to say he had cleaned off the weathering so it looked pristine, that to me is madness. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Bachmann-Peak-class-45-renumbered-and-weathered-32-679DS-3rd-carabanier-/201039877810?ssPageName=ADME:L:LCA:GB:1123 Madness or not, its like something I might do.

84A Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 (edited) Interesting way to make a bit on your £2.99 spend I guess - rip it apart and sell (roughly) 2/3's of it on: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/00-gauge-locos-great-british-locomotive-collection-a4-gresely-loco-tender-body-/380864283309?pt=UK_Trains_Railway_Models&hash=item58ad47c2ad I'm wondering what became of the chassis now... EDIT: Had he included the magic word `spares' in the title, both would have probably have fetched circa double what they have on them now.

RMweb Premium John M Upton Posted March 15, 2014 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 15, 2014 The 'Lucky Dip' loco kit. God knows what this is/was supposed to be (the bit stuck to where the funnel should be looks LBSCish) but may be worth a punt for a laugh: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/331151914329?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horsetan Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Interesting way to make a bit on your £2.99 spend I guess - rip it apart and sell (roughly) 2/3's of it on: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/00-gauge-locos-great-british-locomotive-collection-a4-gresely-loco-tender-body-/380864283309?pt=UK_Trains_Railway_Models&hash=item58ad47c2ad I'm wondering what became of the chassis now... EDIT: Had he included the magic word `spares' in the title, both would have probably have fetched circa double what they have on them now. Oh, that's "flossytusslepot". He seems to make a good living selling otherwise very hard-to-get Hornby spares. What surprised me was his ability to get hold of the "rare birds" - damaged L1 and 42xx bodies (some of them spectacularly damaged), though even he couldn't acquire a broken Hornby B1! When I first noticed the volume of Hornby-China scrap passing through his hands, I did wonder whether the average British RTR buyer was now getting increasingly clumsy, or whether he had some private arrangement with Hornby to take all the damaged returns off their hands. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazmanjack Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Did Hornby make an A4 named 'Shadow' ??

RMweb Premium petethemole Posted March 16, 2014 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 16, 2014 He's put 6 plinths up as well, as a single lot; postage £5.50. Possibly mis-described though; it appears they are under gauge for 00. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/OO-Gauge-Model-Railway-Display-Plinth-/271426248892?pt=UK_Trains_Railway_Models&hash=item3f3243e0bc#ht_348wt_1190 Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kintbury jon Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 (edited) Agreed. Part of my interest is the fact that it's window arrangement (location of luggage area) is incorrect for a Jaffa CEP. Edited March 17, 2014 by kintbury jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of my interest is the fact that it's window arrangement (location of luggage area) is incorrect for a Jaffa CEP. looking at some of the pictures there is a lot of reflection around the transfers. Most likely it will also need a respray with dullcote or something to hide the transfer film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The paint job does not look too good, you can see heavy overpainting with a brush particularly on the orange. In the one photo it looks like the paint has been damaged by some sort of solvent.
