Title: Wanted, to Buy - Peco L&BR Vans and Opens
Post by: Andrew Emery on April 06, 2017, 16:39

Wanted, to Buy - Peco L&BR vans and opens, in scrap condition.

Dear All,

Some time back, a load of my Peco L&BR vans and open wagons were damaged in an accident overseas. I am in need of some spares, namely van and wagons floors, with the locating tabs for chassis and axles. The wagon can be a scrapper, damaged, disfigured, mutilated, whatever, and the tabs don't even need to be attached - just so long as they are included.

As the Society Sales do not normally buy-in scrap models, wrecks, etc. (no jokes please...) it was suggested I post a request here. If you have any failed conversions, unwanted bodies, paint jobs that went wrong, crunched-under-foot accident cases, please drop me a line and let me know.

Kind Regards,
Andrew (Arthur Daly) Emery

Hi there,

Have you asked Peco....

I've been able to get odd bits of kits from them in the past.

Mainly buildings bits I will admit

But - If you don't ask.....

Thanks

 I can  not  offer  you  anything  I  do  have  a  load  of  L&B  PECO  rolling  stock  but  all still pristine  as  we  still await  the  locos!!


However  may  I suggest  that  you try  posting  on  www.rmweb.co.uk  forum  where  there  is  a   wanted  section,  which  is  quite  useful  for finding  items  are  receiving  info from  members  where  things  may be  obtained.

If  you  check  the bottom  of  the  forums  pages you will note  that  usage  is  quite  high  with  sometimes  several  hundred  modellers on line!

Joining  the   forum  is  fast  and  free.

Regards   Steve

Hi  Andrew

If  you  do  get  to  look  at  RMWeb  forum  you  will find  there  is  quite  a  bit  of   Narrow  Gauge  interest  both  model  & prototype,  in  the  Narrow  Gauge  section  towards  the  bottom  of  the  Forums  list

(Some  very  nice  pictures  of  a  Welshpool  &  Llanfair  layout on  currently)
