There seems to be a wide variation on prices. Perhaps more so recently than used to be the case. My guess, and that is all it is, is that the two engines, 3" and 2" scale, will start at around £3,000 and go for anything from £5,000 upwards. Someone may be lucky and get a bargain, but it never seems to be me! I would think that the prices of these two will be similar, as the smaller is a ploughing engine, and they tend to be popular, which will raise its price to about the same as the larger engine. It will be interesting to see if I am right. alan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx www.alanstepney.info Model Engineering, Steam Engine, and Railway technical pages. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Richard Harvey" <rharvey@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <modeleng@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, October 06, 2004 10:32 AM Subject: [modeleng] Re: Auction Roger Looks an interesting day out.
