Shaking the bucket

Being confronted with some expensive car repairs has forced a reassessment of my modelling priorities and I’ve decided that all equipment that is not directly of use on Broomloan Yard or Culreoch is going.
Below is the first wave of items.

Only D55 and 45120 have seen any kind of action and all the rest are as new, never having been run.
I’m looking for £65 for the lightweights. All the other diesels and the Fairburn are £50 each. I suggest £5 postage for first class or £8 for special delivery. I’ll make up any difference myself. There will be more locos, stock etc to come later. I feel this is a good moment to downsize!

    Hi Dave,
    If you have 2 xD95 I will take them both. Let me know the total payment and method. In the past I know you have taken payment by paypal (gift).

      Thanks Pete but somebody else wanted the other. I was going to keep one but I didn’t want to disappoint anybody! Is there anything else you can use?😊

        Hi Dave,
        Nothing more from the present models, however if I have read you right , you intend to sell some more of your stock. I feel like a vulture.
        
        cheers Pete

  OK lads, the address you need is brindlesmith@aol.com
  Pete; the Mk1s are a BSK, CK, SO and RFO. The roof ribs have been reduced on both. Some basic weathering has been applied but they could use a wee bit more. Say £12 each for these?

  Hi Pete. I’m just parcelling them up now. Had to take some WRHA items to Whitrope yesterday and the car’s been in for its MoT all day. Now playing catch-up!

Hi Dave, bit late to this but worth the question – is the Blue DLW still available? What blue grey mk1s are still available

Cheers
Graham

  Aye, it’s still here if you want it, Graham. Still a few blue and greys here too, I’ll need to look later to confirm types. Any preference?

    Ok great. Brake types, BG or perhaps BCK mostly but maybe a TSO? I’ll happily take the Lightweight if that’s OK.

  Graham, I’ve checked the Mk1s. I have the following available. 3 x BSK, 3 x CK, one each of BCK, SK, FK and BG plus 2 x SO.

    Ohh, quite a selection. Would you be OK parting with a BSK, CK, SO and the BG plus DLW? If happy and know the total, let me know and will send a PayPal transfer.

Sure, I’ll let you know about the coaches later. Pretty sure I can help.
