    I just can't decide on US or UK modelling. It's made harder by the wife not being impressed for wanting to change and a 'limit' on how many locos can be seen to be had... 

     

    Love both for different reasons...

      Thanks Jack, I have noted how expensive it is to import.  What look like attractively priced units are suddenly as expensive as sound fitted if DCC ready etc... While Rails have started to fill some of the void, I do feel the cost has caused a loss of UK based traders.  I am also quite interested to see the price of ScaleTrains Et44 at £375 at one of the UK dealers, while they are £85 more expensive than Rails for Athearn as well - at those prices, is just making me question whether it is worth it!  Agreed that the new features are minimal as well for the cost - but the same can be said for the UK market too.

      Glad I am not the only one who has that issue... 

       

      Have purposely stayed away from European for that reason!  At least you didn't say Asian and Australian as well :lol:

    Bagged a S Stock bargain on eBay on BiN.  It turned up today after seeing another go for double days later... Very Happy...

      Was very lucky tbh. They've sold out at LTM, even at £440... Even had a very low Certificate No.  I'll keep an eye out and give you a nod if I ever see one.   Didn't expect mine to turn up at that price, but credit to the seller.

    Decided that I am going to adopt the run what the hell i want approach. It's hard work being region and time specific!

    Do i reduce my 2+7 GWR HST to 2+4 or will i regret this (still have a 2+7 FGW Dynamic Lines Set). About to add OOC decals to it as well...

      Was just thinking about freeing funds up. Not sure the layout can take 2x 2+7 sets and the IEP I now have. Aware that the doors are an issue, but modelling licence and all :-)
