It's yellow, so surely worth extra?

Every non-working, melted running plate, repainted smokebox penny.

 

A new one is £109.99, so, £10 more.

 

If I wanted THAT one - where would I find a spare motor. Spent 10 minutes googling, on DJM website, Kernow website, Peter's Spares etc and nowhere can I find the part number or replacement part available.

 

Raises an interesting point re. DJM. I like DJM and what he's doing, but what's the parts availability going to be like? Has he selected/engaged someone to carry parts? Does he order parts from the factory?

There are no O2 spares available, because the factory hasn't actually run off any spares.

I reckoned I would pick it up for my Little Man for a tenner tops with the broken coupling and all, how wrong I was!!!

Weathering the new Bachmann SECR Birdcage coach - brave decision.  Does this enhance or depreciate its value, I wonder?

50% markup on a rushed weathering job for a quick buck. They need to stick to weathering wagons.

It would enhance it's value if he was to paint it yellow!

If you read what the seller says in the postage section he has stated a "dummy" overseas £100 postage value to satisfy eBay's requirement but will confirm the actual postage cost if you enquire.  The UK postage is £3.20 not $200. 

 

Bidding started at 99p so the high bidders must be getting carried away as usual

Painting it yellow is only half the story.

What it then needs is Network Rail stickers to make it truly priceless........
