WANTED
009 Bachmann Quarry Hunslet
Dorothea or Holy War

Thanks

IIRC Holy War was an exclusive limited run made for the Bala Lake railway and now commands 'collector's prices' on eBay (last one I saw went for something silly like the wrong side of £300!).

I think that Dorothea might have been one that Bachmann are making in the recently announced 2nd run, so if you are prepared to wait then you may be able to get on at a normal retail price (maybe slightly discounted by the box shifters) rather than the £200 - 300 they seem to be fetching on that well known auction site...

£300 wow silly money!

£300 wow silly money!

I thought that too - and wished I'd been the seller!

Putting that to one side a less painful option for Holy War might be to get the right style of quarry Hunslet from the next run and add some custom nameplates from Light Railway Stores / Narrow Planet - it will certainly work out cheaper.

Yes !
