Modelling on a £1200 table.
Hi all, it's been a long time since I felt compelled to post any content or indeed do any modelling.. I thought I'd share my latest project with you.. As many of you know Heljan sell off a lot of their faulty/returned stock at Telford. They had what looked like a fully finished Falcon GSYP which took my fancy at £200 I asked if I could leave a deposit and try it on the test track to which they agreed, much to my disappointment it did not work. A helpful GOG volunteer kindly lent me a small screwdriver and upon further inspection it was dicsovered that this loco was indeed an empty box, literally nothing inside.. I took it back to the Heljan stand and informed them that the loco was devoid of any mechanism/wiring etc. They said it was probably a sample, they said if I wanted it I could have it for £100... Now I didn't immediately snap their hands off like any sane person would I ummed and arred much to a good friends dismay.. I eventually made the right decision with a little bit of peer pressure and went ahead and parted with my £100..
