New Acquisition

Post by dougrail » Thu Jul 07, 2011 12:07 am

At the Talylyln "Have A Go Gala" on the 2-3rd July, I was able to acquire a decent battery diesel in the wake of the sale of my Triang/Novo diesel.

For the sum of £120 asked I was able to purchase a decent diesel locomotive.

An I P Engineering 'Jessie' 0-4-0 :D

-New batteries
-Working frontlight and a fitted red back taillamp
-A speed controller, control situated in the cab
-The 'extra' detailing like vents, smokestack, cabrails etc
-Black frames, silver cranks, mid royal-blue livery, red buffers
-Multiheight couplings

Even better, I was able to trade in for it - I was able to swap a Tenmille Corris Brake Van, and a Mamod Wago chassis kit [assembled] plus remaining cash in order to make the purchase.

Given the blue, and the fact that the TR has a 'Midlander' in green [Forests of Lincs and Gloucs; Robin Hood etc] and a 'Merseysider' in red [Liverpool, LFC, YNWA etc]...there Could Only Be One name...:D


HIGHLANDER.

Pics soon :)
