The thing that sticks in the craw is that even if you report this sort of thing, very little seems to be done about it... Mark

Yes, I'll be interested to see if the buyer gets his goods too. Speaking of trying to avoid PP fees, one of our regular 'sellers of note' is openly suggesting paying by means other than PayPal on a couple of high-value sets of coaches - I wonder if he'll get into trouble with eBay over it? Mark

LNER autocoaches/railmotors/push-pull units
MarkC replied to Chuffinell's topic in Modelling Questions, Help and Tips
Thanks guys - it does look like maroon - the joys of b/w and/or sepia images, eh? The pic I was originally thinking of is on P81 of Robin Lidster's "Scarborough & Whitby Railway through time". Mark -

Also, the pic of Diagram 14600-614E might be maroon too Mark -

I am, yes. I'm looking for the pic I referred to before, but I've found this - another pic on this link http://www.lner.info/locos/Railcar/sentinel.shtml Scroll down to Diagram 88 Cheers Mark -

I've seen a photo of a Sentinel Steam Railcar in what appears to be NER style lined maroon, taken on the Whitby-Scarborough line. I'll see if I can find it when I get the chance, unless someone beats me to it Mark -
Just one point with this - these bids were placed before the 'additional information' was added by the seller - isn't there something about being able to withdraw bids if additional info is posted? Yes, I know it's been pointed out that it did mention 'box only' in the initial listing, but just a thought? Mark

I've lost out a few times, yet had some cracking bargains too. Sometimes what you think is a silly, low bid wins. Just persevere - remember, if you're not in it, you can't win it... Mark

Incredible... Mark

Finally went for £63 - plus postage... Wow!!! Mark

This was the tunnel from Falsgrave to Gallows Close at the start of the line to Whitby. It's been filled in, iirc, in order to allow building work on top of it. Mark

And, as most of us will have thought, it was a slip of the pen finger - got a nice email back from the chap - good luck to him

Well, I've just queried it

Hmm - once is happenstance, twice is suspicious, thrice is enemy action... One does wonder...

Transpennine Upgrade : Manchester/Leeds
MarkC replied to beast66606's topic in UK Prototype Discussions (not questions!)
This is a bit late 'coming to the party', but the Class 124 Transpennines were also restricted to 70mph - they had the same mechanical kit as many other 1st generation DMUs, and were 'Blue Square' for multiple working. -

"THE MODELS IS SUPPLIED WITH COMPLIMENTARY TRAVEL / STORAGE BOX" Sadly someone will probably fall for that...
