RMweb Gold 96701 Posted February 20, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 20, 2015 The Mary Shelley School of Modelling has another graduate: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TRI-ANG-Hornby-R350-OO-GAUGE-SR-CLASS-L1-4-4-0-RE-FINISHED-WEATHERED-UNUSUAL-/351320066224?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item51cc4ec8b0 "Please study the photos as the finish of this loco is a matter of personal taste" If it's all the same, I'd rather not....... If you're going to practice weathering you might as well practice on a piece of old tat. what I don't quite get is why try to sell it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Il Grifone Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 (edited) The Mary Shelley School of Modelling has another graduate: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TRI-ANG-Hornby-R350-OO-GAUGE-SR-CLASS-L1-4-4-0-RE-FINISHED-WEATHERED-UNUSUAL-/351320066224?pt=LH_Default Domain_3&hash=item51cc4ec8b0 "Please study the photos as the finish of this loco is a matter of personal taste" If it's all the same, I'd rather not....... 769 The finish is certainly a matter of (bad) taste. So is the tender. The correct one is far from 100% accurate, but this one..... The sad thing is that she could possibly have been worth £39.99, if not b****red up. 782 Edited February 20, 2015 by Il Grifone Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

N15class Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 What were these people thinking? How much Its a lot of money to pay for a kit that needs rebuilding and possibly new parts and some replacement wheels. I expect this one is still around somewhere. I know similar new with wheels are about this price. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
