Il Grifone Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Possibly didn't realise? I believe they are still available as spares (at a price). Of course, the real Dublo 'holy grails' would be a 3-rail EMU or a pre-war clockwork A4 set or post -war CPR set. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolultey agree Mike , but I've been watching all the 42/72xx's that have appeard lately and most of the kits seem to end up around the £100 mark , the built ones do go for silly money but not starting at the £150 point, £150 is his opening price for the kit , he might have made that with a low start price but I think he's going to be lucky to get it for the kit . I have these on watch just to see how he gets on . That said he does have the wagon for £85 that Jan pointed out earlier , plus a load more at quite high prices . Then just for good measure , not railway , but , WHAT !!!!! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ATCO-ROYALE-B24R-PRO-MOWER-BOX-NEARLY-NEW-/270913531737?pt=UK_Home_Garden_GardenPowerTools_CA&hash=item3f13b46f59 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
