squeaky Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 I would question whether a broken Lima 09 is either worth 40 quid or in "good used condition". Not only is it missing a few parts, why is it a dock shunter?? Clearly someone hasn't done any research, a quick Google of Lima 09 and you can see that it is missing it's rods!! They have even got a Blue one with connecting rods so you think they would mention they are missing on the grey one Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grovenor Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 wouldn't touch them after my one experience. Rgds.Mike Rails idea of a good standard shows that they have a very dim view of their customers' commonsense. 18100 looks a bit better, at least it is straight and has the right number of wheels.
