Oh dear, you 2 are reading each others mind - even though are miles apart?

What's Next?

Both create the same MOC? and post it at the same time?

That Telepathic for you. (i hope i spelt it right)

Oooooooh! Yummy :-) I'm always after bits like these!!!

332 and 333 are probably the most common ones. I would expect them to • change
hands anywhere between £5 and £15 (depends who you ask and when)! 313 • would
draw more interest, but mainly for the abundance of white classic • windows!
The set itself is easy to 'fake', as it has no specialist parts • (provided
that you have enough 'old' parts, that is)! 336 is probably rarest of • the
bunch for the sake of that red baseplate - does is still have the • spring
intact?

A built 335 went on eBay a while back for $50+, but other sealed sets • I've
seen have been going much higher... Michael Le Count and / or Phil • Travis
might have better ideas for you.

:-)Hi jon
Thanks for the reply.I have quite a few other intresting bits of that • age
but don`t know what model they came off.I have some black hinges they • are
like 2 1x4 bricks end on with a hinge in the middle folding up. Any • ideas??
P.S what spring?

Wow :-) You'll have people biting your arm off for those!!! They were • only
used in #343 Train Ferry - four were used in total...

The 'spring' is the thin plastic strip in the narrow end of the • baseplate
which locates in the two tiny pins on top of the steering bearing. It • acts
as a self-centring mechanism. Effective, but prone to breaking :-(

Jono.

I just had a strange sense of deja-vu...

Phil.
