Can We Find Any Bargain Model Trains? 🚂🚇

[@steadycamman1]

Thank you Rick & Pauline for the video, looking forward to your next one, cheers, Pete👍

[@wellchuffedrailways]

Thanks for watching Pete

[@andrewrice6596]

Thanks for another interesting video. Good to see there are still some bargains around.

[@wellchuffedrailways]

Thanks Andrew.

[@clivengauge]

Excellent video just what Sunday's are for thank you for sharing 👍

[@wellchuffedrailways]

Thanks Clive

[@hermitageroad4713]

you are so enthusiastic it cheers me up

[@wellchuffedrailways]

Well that's the best comment we have ever had! All we could ask is that we cheer people up. Many thanks Rick

Hi guys, another great video. I liked the CO BO at the start of the video. There was some cracking stuff for sale there. As for the Metro, I gave a real one to my mate for nothing. He gave it me back a week later, they were crud. Really enjoyed the video guys. All the best. Carl.

[@wellchuffedrailways]

Hi Carl, there is a Metro near us still in daily use! Good car when launched but like many a car it stayed in production way too long. All the best Rick

[@TaG.189]

I Wish our model railway bargain Fair were like yours ours are terribile the model are in bad condition and there isn't anything to protect the models from nature, at least this Is what i saw at a Fair near school, cool video!

[@wellchuffedrailways]

Sounds like one of our car boot sales. They occasionally have some decent items but most of it is broken junk. Thanks for watching Rick

[@Madonsteamrailways]

Personally, I think that Bachmann make the best model locomotives these days!! They make great, highly detailed models rather than items like the Railroad range from Hornby.

[@leokimvideo]

I haven't seen those Bachmann models with faces for ages, to me they are a BUY

[@wellchuffedrailways]

The temptation to buy was definitely there!😀

[@lifeisgood3386]

Loved the roundabout good vid as always i did hear pauline say my name bless her shame bobby was not there how is he take care both of you please from pete .

[@wellchuffedrailways]

Hi Pete, Bobby wouldn't have allowed at the show as it was at a leisure centre. He's doing fine awaiting another visit to the vets. All the best Rick

[@HenrikSweden1]

great video ! and very interesting to see how easily a family, who want to start a layout for the kids, can find lots of engines and rolling stock at soooooo low prices. Maybe they would sell more if they put together some sets, using the items from the lowest price range. So much easier for newcomers who find it hard to choose....thanks !

[@wellchuffedrailways]

Hi Henrik, that's a good idea but you see very few families at these events. However I think it would work at the exhibitions. All the best Rick

[@dannyvanstraelen3273]

Hi Rick & Pauline, at 6:15 in the video you showed that American loco, that's the only American loco I got in my collection, together with a full rake of NY central silver liner coaches, but from Rivarossi before it became part of the Hornby group. The silver coaches are a realistic, but if you want a set like they ran when lunched, the coaches have the same color scheme and lining as the tender, a bit like the blue and red coronation scot coaches. I never wanted to buy American locos, but that one is such a beautiful loco, it's also called the mohican due to the spit that goes over the boiler, so this one was bought for the love of the design. And finely you got the fish van wagon, tip open the roof, put a small piece of fish in it, and after a day you get the full experience😜🤣🤣🤣 Great video again, always a very good start of my Sunday… Cheers, Danny

[@wellchuffedrailways]

Hi Danny, the problem with the fish van is that we have a cat which we are trying to discourage from trainspotting. 🐈

Hi great video. Welwyn garden city is model show on Saturday 20 April been 4 years really good. Find some great train from good price. Time is open 10.00 - 5

Hi Ben, a bit far for us to travel but have a great time if you are going.

Chester used to do a great fair at the leisure centre, but it has now moved to the outskirts but is well worth a visit, Deeside is a new venue but looks a little small.

[@wellchuffedrailways]

Hi Tim, it was a smaller show with the usual traders. Spent the grand total of £10. I will do a bit of digging on the Chester fair. Cheers Rick

[@going2thedogs]

Some great purchases. 👍

[@michaellowe9744]

Excellent as usual.Lovely way to start the week.Please buy Pauline something in blue 😊

[@wellchuffedrailways]

Thanks for watching Michael, we got the blue fish wagon at last so time to start a blu train!

[@Madonsteamrailways]

I had an 0 gauge clockwork train set before I was old enough to have my 00 gauge electric train set. It was a Southern Railway set which included the level crossing and a station.

[@wellchuffedrailways]

Sounds good!

[@modelrailroader5619]

Watching from Canada and looking to augment my grandpa’s British trains with more rolling stock. I might have to send you a “wish list” so you have something else to shop for!😉😊 Thanks for sharing…

[@wellchuffedrailways]

Hi if you are willing to pay our airfares we will happily bring them over for you. 😀

[@modelrailroader5619]

My cousin lives in London and she would probably say she gets first dibs on the delivery!😂😂😂

[@barryjohnson2901]

Great to see some Dublo with prices

[@wellchuffedrailways]

Still good value!

[@anfieldroadlayoutintheloft5204]

good vid on channel of a cool train fair thank four the cool vid

[@wellchuffedrailways]

Thanks Lee

[@harrygleed423]

Hello Pauline and Rick, Pauline your voice when you saw the blue Pullman, ooh that’s nice! Also guy you missed the McDonald’s wagon on the same stall. The Triang smoking car was part of the Davey Crockett train set! Also I had the R159 diesel as part of my first train set. The Blue Lima diesel is a D.B. Loco model. How about a Bobby update? Harry

[@wellchuffedrailways]

Hi Harry, yes I missed McDonald's! Bobby is waiting on seeing the vets again and then we can give a proper update. All the best Rick

[@nickboden5866]

Another superb video, thanks for sharing.

[@wellchuffedrailways]

Thanks Nick

[@scottishcontentcreators]

You should build a budget layout to show people what's achievable with second hand stuff. Maybe a shunting layout for under £100, track, controller, loco, wagons a building and some scenery. Maybe ask veiwers to pick a theme, salt, fish, oil, milk, mail. I'd be really interested to see that myself. Something different to the endless reviews of brand new stuff most of us can't afford.

[@wellchuffedrailways]

That's a very good idea!

[@scottishcontentcreators]

@wellchuffedrailways There isn't any channel more suited to it than Well Chuffed Railways and I thought it would be a nice way to engage viewers as well as promoting the traders the shows and the hobby. My suggestion would be a shunting layout, maybe n scale for those limited on space as well as budget, and the theme would be like a morning routine, start with a soap wagon then a cereal wagon milk wagon coffee wagon bread wagon a crisps wagon etc. I love watching you guys going through the boxes of stuff at shows, it's great for showing the hobby is still accessible 👍.

[@bendavis1575]

​@wellchuffedrailways should do a video on Welwyn Garden City model railway show as their trade is on 20th April at Welwyn Garden City from 10.00 - to 5

[@anthonyshipman3611]

You probably know them already but just incase budget model railways channel do this often.

[@scottishcontentcreators]

@anthonyshipman3611 Thanks, I'm not aware of the channel but I'll check it out 👍

Hi Rick I do think you need the Bunny LOL!!! OK YES Passenger Car's and some good Bargains too. Bubble car wow lol!!! I do like the Houses and Buildings you did show nice:). Thanks for showing the Dicast Cars :). Good fun in this one mate have a good on and see you later cheers :)!!!!!

[@ivovanzon164]

3:18 There is a lot more cheap small locomotives for the UK market... Continental ones usually have too complicated valvegear (as most of them have outside valvegear) 5:22 That becomes annoying quite quickly, they react on direction changes and a random timer 6:16 That's a real premium model (part brass) 7:35 These are designed for the USA market where you need a lot more tractive effort (hence the weight) 8:20 Schicht was part of the VEB Piko conglomerate. These cars are part of the late 1950s / early 1960s attempt to beat the 'capitalist' manufacturers in detailing (imagine that most model trains were either crude plastic or tinplate). Depending on age they may have real glass windows 11:31 Lima FS 342 painted to resemble one of the E10 prototypes. This is NOT a repaint job... 14:37 Those HO Class 33s go for higher prices if in the original HEMA boxes over here

[@wellchuffedrailways]

Thanks for the very informative info Ivo. All the best Rick

[@Madonsteamrailways]

At the Hoddesdon Model and Railway Club, the Underground Ernie layout is very troublesome.

[@k8vnl]

That one is close to me I think it's only the 3rd one.I was working this time so couldn't go but they are doing another ths year.

[@wellchuffedrailways]

It was a very similar size to the Elsecar events we have closer to home. All the best Rick

[@CentralCanada]

Thanks for the Vid' . It actually popped up as 1-MR vid, after watching a 'rislone' product vid. :-) Was there any G-gauge, or just smaller ? Although the carousel "Ride For all Ages", did look about the right size' to fit within the correct additional theme, within a G-gauge railway empire'. ;-) "G-Gauge may not RULE, But it GROWS on Ya !! " djc'99 ~ member of CMRS, the organizer/host of SUPERTRAIN, and I'm of course, 1 of the society show volunteers !

[@wellchuffedrailways]

Hi I didn't see any on this occasion but I was a smaller fair. We do see G Scale at shows and have filmed a few G Scale layouts in operation over the years. It was a nice carousel wasn't it! Thanks for watching and commenting Rick

[@stephenrichardson4845]

I have a couple of those Lima HO blue and grey coaches if you'd like them. I've also got 2 Great Western chocolate and cream ones.

[@wellchuffedrailways]

Thanks for offering Stephen but we have managed to get a full rake of them. All the best Rick

I thought it was Bobby who bought those blue carriages....😲😊🇳🇿

Hi Glenn, Bobby is after some more six wheel sausage vans. 😂😂

I would have bought that crossing just for the nostalgia feeling its a nice piece, Did you pair go to the York show.

[@wellchuffedrailways]

I was tempted!

[@gwrbuckleyjunction1733]

Must have missed you I was there

[@wellchuffedrailways]

Maybe next time!

[@tonyrobinson362]

Was anybody else there it looked completely devoid of buyers?

[@wellchuffedrailways]

Hi Tony, as usual we were a bit late due to a motorway accident. Apparently it was busier earlier on but it may have been quieter than usual as this was filmed on Good Friday. Cheers Rick

[@tonyrobinson362]

Right thanks some good prices.

[@Madonsteamrailways]

Does anyone do a 00 gauge model of the American Locomotive Company S160? That’s a locomotive I would love to have on my Dad’s Army layout!!

[@hotdogpilot6319]

Rapido UK will be making an S160 in OO gauge...

[@jameshardy4354]

Your videos prove the habby can be cheap you dont need the all singing and dancing modern junk

[@wellchuffedrailways]

Hi James, it's as expensive as you want it to be. High detail generally means higher cost when new. Many shops discount new models so special offers are always worth hunting for. All the best Rick

[@jameshardy4354]

@@wellchuffedrailways true its just people keep complaining about today's prices but everything is expensive new these days

[@jameshardy4354]

People say this hobby is expensive second hand isnt in this video I saw some cheap locomotives people need to stop it too expensive

[@dannyvanstraelen3273]

I fully agree with you, and if you are a bit handy, do a mechanical clean up an greasing, and with some detailing paint work it can be as new, as often footplate details are there but not highlighted, even a good rinse can do magic…

[@wellchuffedrailways]

Certainly pays to shop around and do a bit of research before buying.
