THE LOCOSHED

 

Sorry to report we have had some website issues for a few days this week while our website hosts upgrade and move the server whatever that means but it has caused the site to be down for quite some time.

I am hoping it has been resolved now but if you encountered  any issues please just give me a ring at the shop on 0161 772 0103 and we can process any orders over the phone.

This Will seem strange thinking about this as we endure the latest heatwave but we now have Tickets available for the 2025 Christmas Manchester Model Railway Show in December, this will be a very special show in the clubs centenary Year, Adults £14 Saturday. £11 on Sunday with accompanied children going Free. Can be bought in person via our high street shop.

You may have seen an offer on line for Tickets at £10 , that was for the first 100 people to apply on the Saturday or Sunday who are on the clubs mailing list ,  sorry not available at our store.

KIT BUILT OO gauge GWR ex-TVR Class O1 Tank 0-6-2

OO gauge

Preowned, in excellent condition.

A very good runner when tested for it’s age and type.  Very well built with diecast body and superbly painted and lined out in GWR Green.

The paintwork in virtually unmarked and the only issue we can see is a very slight nick out of the “G”  on the left hand bunker transfer, otherwise all other lining is intact.

Ideal station pilot and suburban passenger loco.

Originally in service with the Taff Vale Railway.

Model is built on a Wrenn chassis; reasonably clean, well lubricated. The trailing wheel is a friction fit; be rest assured that this does, surprisingly, stay on when running. Couplings are stamped metal Tri-ang pattern tension locks; the rear example cannot have a hook for it collides with the trailing wheel.

Numbered 775, with brass number plates. Not DCC ready.

Model is unboxed but a suitable example will be supplied for safe postage.

Model condition 8/10 Box condition n/a
