I have been giving this serious thought the past couple of days and ordered one from Martins Models this afternoon. I found him very helpful, ok he was £1 cheaper than other places but that made no difference.The going rate was the same everywhere I looked.
He'll fit the Ronson filler valve for a fiver and £7.50 postage sounds worth not lugging it around the show. Plus he's not sure he will be there. Should arrive Thursday.

Sorry to thwart your bargain hunting plans Steve, can meet up to hi.

When I've been to shows for other hobbies there are usually some "show specials" . I was looking for a loco last year but thought there was no point ordering a Bertie as it was just the same price as when I got home. I didn't buy a new one in the end, but had there been an incentive I might well have done.

Finally got to run it on tracks today, must say that I'm inpressed by the build quality and that little engine is superb.

Excellent, they are super little locos, where have your boiler bands gone though? It looks very sombre without them.

It didn't vome with boiler bands, I hadn't noticed that

[Dr. Bond of the DVLR]

Ah, did you buy it second hand ?
