I've got some questions about some train sets I'm thinking about buying,
seeing as there doesn't seem to be much chance of any new stuff coming along
in the near future.

1.  The 3225 Classic Train - I know there's no track, but I'm guessing that
there's a 9V motor in there, right?

2.  Also in the 3225 Classic Train, are the wagons made up of separate wheel
blocks + buffer ends under a baseplate (i.e. not all one moulded piece)?

2.  The 4533 Snow Plough - does this have separate train wheel blocks +
buffer end too?

I'm really interested in the parts of these for rebuilding.  I've got no 9V
trains, and just a loop and a half of track.  I know I'll need a controller too.

I'm still deliberating over whether or not to get into trains.  I don't
really like any of the Lego ones, but I've built several of my own around
the 4.5V motor and really want to see them working properly, especially on a
big Fest layout.

But, if anyone in the UK has any spare train motors, wheels, buffers etc.
they could sell me, I'd love to hear from you.

Jason.
