PatB Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 The track and DCC units probably add up to somewhere close to the asking price (at new prices). Whether it represents a sensible and cost effective way to obtain them, though, is rather another matter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Il Grifone Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 (edited) I see the stock isn't. Interestingly although there are wagons on the layout in the photo most of them seem to be derailed... Layouts frequently have stock on them although the small print then states that it isn't included. it's presence, especially if derailed as here, shows a couldn't care less attitude on the part of the seller IMHO. Unfortunately, all the work put into a model rarely is reflected in the sale value. You would probably get more more stripping it all down and selling the separate parts.

So it seems like someone is exiting the hobby. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Il Grifone Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 (edited) Cartmel again! https://www.ebay.co.uk/p/Hornby-Dublo-3-Rail-32012-D1-Corridor-Coach-LNER/1978943995 One of Dublo's clearout of surplus LNER thirds from 1954 (I can remember them on sale and wondered about the grey roofs, but I didn't have enough pocket money (some things never change!). Without the box there is no way to prove it's genuine however*. Swopping the roof is simple and thus as a rarity it doesn't rate and it's hard to justify the price which is high even by Cartmel standards. Changing the wheels doesn't help with originality either. * Not that the box would prove very much. Edited August 21, 2018 by Il Grifone Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
