Loco Sales Report August 2026

Sales have remained quiet with only a new Mallard Set sold in July. A potential sale of a used FSDT awaits confirmation from the buyer

There have been a couple of purchases recently. Part of my collection was purchased by the Club, thank you, and a collection of 5 used locos from a member – Papyrus, FSDT, DDE, Seagull & Golden Fleece which when serviced will give us one of everything to offer for sale.

I have made an offer to a long standing club member and collector who has 3 new locos still in their original Hornby shipping boxes he wishes to sell, along with various spares and accessories
