Re: Bachmann Crab on code 75 ?

Oops yes manual zooming required :lol:

Well I am still unsure if any of the newer 2011> models had shallower flanges or not.

In case any other people wonder, I purchased #13098 part no. 32-175, made circa 2003. The flanges on the driving wheels are 1.1mm, and my Peco Bullhead code 75 points have ...

Re: Ebay

Sorry if this has been asked before.

I just went to create a listing for the first time in a while, and now I can only see the postage options via ebay. Previously I could arrange my own postage and just list how much I would charge. Can I still do this somehow or is it all tied into ebays system ...

Hornby GWR Prairie

Bought with damaged box, the Loco has never been run aside from testing with a 9V battery.
The model is in excellent condition, and complete with detail pack pictured. I had removed the body to see how much room there was inside for a DCC sound chip etc.

I am asking £47 plus £3.50 UK postage ...

Hornby 4-2-2 Single in early LMS x2 + R2806 set (LMS single and 3 LMS ex Caledonian coaches

Hi, due to a bit of over excitable ordering I have one R2806 set spare to sell or split, and the loco's from the other 2 sets to sell, so I thought I would see if any interest here first.
