Hi Adrian, it’s from the last sales report. Very much governed by supply at a realistic price. Having said that enquires are lower than a couple of months ago.
Six! Well done if that's in the last couple of weeks or is it an update from the last report a couple of months back? Still good though.
Hi, Sold six more locos, 2x FSDT, 1x Mallard set, 1 FS set, 1x DDE and 1x Silver Link with profit to the club of £856.75. Owing to me £2079. Maurice
Hi Everybody, one more, Seagull sold with £305 owed to me (deposit of £100 taken previously) with £100 profit for the club.

Hi Everybody, Loco sales continue with two Mallard sets sold, one Seagull, one FS, one Sliver Link, a rolling road and a set of controllers.
Money owed to me £1513.44, profit for the club £734.23. Profit for year to date £3783. Maurice
That's fine Eric, Many thanks,
I've transferred £2000.00 to Maurice as I can only pay out this maximum once per day. Balance tomorrow Maurice.
Another super performance to gather funds.
Thumbs up from me Maurice !!
Hi,
An update on loco sales generally, You may remember that I forecasted a lower result this year, and that may still be the case, but not as poor as forecast. At the AGM I thought £3000 contribution for loco and limited edition sales, Currently profit from loco sales £2800. With limited edition sales at 15 units, all profit and some payments still to be booked as not all delivered, So a further £1500 contribution to come there.
Five months left of the financial year, not sure what that will bring.

Eight locos sold since my last sales post, they are 1 Papyrus, 1 Seagull, 2 Dwight D Eisenhower, 2 Golden Fleece, 1 Silver Link and 1 Flying Scotsman, loco only.
Profit to club £830.59 owed to me £3246.46. This is high due to some high value items sold.
I will be asking Eric to pay me £3246.46. He will have a spreadsheet with all the detail.

Hi Everybody,
I have decided to sell some of my locos, I have over 30 and some have never been run in my ownership and chances are they never will! I am selling them through the club shop with the normal club shop conditions. This therefore respects the 3 month warranty. I think you know that I target £100 or margin for each loco sold, not always but mostly achieved. Therefore the club will retain £100 from each sale. Trust you're all OK with this?

Good to see somebody 's still making a bit of brass in these dodgy days.
Could Corona Virus see the beginning of a resurgence in model railways.?
Would be a wonderful opportunity to develop the next generation of OOLive
Steam. Or O gauge for that matter.
Take care of yourselves everybody.
Paid out now. Great job again Maurice.
Are these sales recent due to Coronavirus lockdown - people looking for something to do - or are you reporting for a lengthy period? Well done whichever.
👍🏻
