coor lovely, It is surprising how much stock one accumulates! I adore the Corris carriages, they are nice and square and boxy so I may have a go at building one. I had a loco lines kit but it just went wrong! Thanks for sharing

I like the red and cream bacony coaches for some reason, they have some sort of charm to them and look quite unusual yet simple in construction.

It was given to me by mick mobley. scratch built by someone somewhere?
The old corris carriages will never be replicated in working condition as the small wheel base and long over hang is not pratical. plus the corris now use side buffers instead of the sling and jaw method

Suppose, but weirder things have hapened.
Like the slab wagon, ones on my wish list now.

GIVEN????? Was Mick ill?? He's NEVER been known to give ANYTHING away!!

Seriously: when the MDLR got vandalised, the fact that there were the pictures of the undamaged line, and of the vandalism, on the line's Web Site was very useful when talking to people at my insurers who didn't really understand what I was going on about. It was also useful for the Police to see the extent of the damage........

Fantastic collection of rolling stock you've got

Merddin Emrys · Post by **Merddin Emrys** » Thu Mar 25, 2010 9:26 pm

What a great collection

and you've made me remember that I have to check my house insurance for the items I now have!

mhlr · Post by **mhlr** » Thu Mar 25, 2010 10:07 pm

Hmm good idea, I've done that for all my locos and kept serial numbers for them, but not done owt about the rolling stock. Not as mine are worth that much though LOL!

MDLR · Post by **MDLR** » Thu Mar 25, 2010 10:33 pm

Yes - but if they got stolen, how much would it cost to replace them? Don't forget to include your time, as well as materials and/or kits............

MoelygestLR · Post by **MoelygestLR** » Thu Mar 25, 2010 11:49 pm

I think i should do this for insurance purposes too!
I rekon about 3 grands worth of stock and locos! probably excluding time spent on kits!

dont even start on the LGB track and the buildings!
