    Happy new year Rick & family, hope you have an amazing 2024, down south we don’t have toy fairs anymore, we just have the occasional train show full of overpriced secondhand items, better off buying new, hopefully a trip to shows up north will restore faith that not all sellers are just after a huge payday, thanks for sharing.

    • @wellchuffedrailways
      @wellchuffedrailways  Рік тому

      Happy New Year, it certainly pays to shop around. There are a few shows down south but I'm unsure if they are near you. All the best Rick

      @@wellchuffedrailways Hi Rick, I haven’t forgotten the Lima goodies I have, might let all the Zero 1 goodies go as well. I will have a good lookout for toy fairs down my neck of the woods and see what I can find, a trip up north where the people are generally happier and more friendly.

    Your Trix Mk1s will look good on your dmu . The real thing should have engines under the coaches , for at least two of the intermediate cars , you should also have a buffet and a composite . I can’t remember the actual set up of the units . They were originally 6 cars , then 5 cars when buffet removed and I think latterly 4 cars , even mixed with class 123 units. Happy New Year

    Hi Rick and Pauline ,, I have found a good way to tell wether a train is plastic or metal be it diecsat or brass or zinc etc.
    Its done by the feeling temperature of train or whatever you need to find that if you need to know wether its metal or not.
    So if you hold the train on the back of your hand or under the middle of your forearm and it is cold to the touch it will be steel or metalic substance.
    If it is warm or at room temperature it will be plastic or non metalic.
    Also a good way to tell if the wheels on the trains you are buying are metal or plastic especially if they have been factory painted as there hard to tell by just looking at them.
    Its the same as anything from the ground or under ground is nearly always cold to touch as in rocks gravel etc and anything above the ground like trees wood plastics or manufactured plastics etc is warm or higher temperature than from under the ground.
    Its best to always use under your foremarm or the back of your hand quite similar to checking the temperature of a babys milk bottle as in it be warm cold or boiling hot but good way to check...
    Anyhoo a handy tip if you dont carry a metal detector in your pocket every where you go.
    Anyhoo its near 12.30am here in oz and im of to bed.
    So happy new years to you both and big thanks again for putting these videos on as they are muchly appreciated.
    Cheers from John in Australia.

    Quite a big exhibition there, but didn't see any wanted bargains that appeal to me, I guess I become fussy this year😅.
    They're where some that I already got though, but it also depends where the camera is pointed at of corse.
    But it seems you expanded the Wrenn collection a bit, how many models are you still missing In the Wrenn collection?
    Anyway, I wish everybody the Well Chuffed team and audience a happy new hunting year and lots of joy in the hobby…
    Cheers,
    Danny

    Very interesting Pre-Marklin Trix wagons! They should look cool with the units you already have. Quite a lot of nice coaches at various tables, really! Great video? May we ask who your little co-pilot today was? Happy New Year!

      Yes, they need a bit more throttle than the usual stuff but they are usually very good runners unless you want super slow shunting speeds.

      Hi Trevor, I'm not sure how many I have got but it is roughly a 50/50 split between steam and diesel. Pauline will say I have too many! All the best Rick
