class"66" Posted July 13, 2015 Author Share Posted July 13, 2015 Yer think I was leaving high school round 1995, when Ews,mainline,loadhaul arrived on the former British rail.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob D2 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Ah but don't forget, they didn't arrive at once. Load haul, transrail and mainline appeared in 94, Then Wisconsin Central brought the lot ( and rfd eventually ) and started EWS And who in their right mind, thought, three different bidders would buy LH,TR and mainline to compete against each other for small slices of a small market...

Marcus 37 Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Now you know you don't really need those Tarmac hoppers. You can sell them to me for £26.00 to match my other 8 and make a pound profit in the process. LOL. Good bargain though mate. I'd try sending the 60 to Hornby. Their normally pretty good. Had to send our sound chipped 31 back as that smelt of burning. Turned out it was the chip not the motor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
