You bored me hook, line and sinker nearly all the way through this. But when I caught sight of Broome Manor, my face lit up and broke into a cheerful grin. I've already seen the engine's review, and you showed her off in a few more videos. Hope I'll see a whole lot more of Broome Manor, because I love her more than any other model (diesel or steam) you've got. Hugs and kisses to the one GWR Manor who has stolen my heart.
8:44 that looks a lot like a van used in Thomas and friends! 8 wheel ones were used as the mail cars! I've been to a few model train shows, but I've only bought two items from those! in 2007, I got a Thomas Wooden Railway Dennis, and in 2011, I got an HO scale Athearn F7 A-B pair in B&O livery!
Oh yeah! It does actually - I have the proper Hornby Thomas one actually - it's very similar! Oh that sounds good - it's always worth just checking these places anyway! Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Sam, those southern coaches are of a generic Margate outline, following some GWR standards, however the window outline, dimensions and Maunsell style roof alludes to the ex SECR Thanet coaches that ran out of London to Margate, Ramsgate and that area of Kent. they were also of a decreased loading gauge in the body as the SECR had a mostly narrow loading gauge across its lines.
Hi Alex, thanks so much for the info on those - that's great to know! Blimey, that's brilliant - I need to write that down! Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Good haul there Sam, and yes Rodney, was called Rodney, when the class 50's were transferred to the Western Region in the mid to late 70's they took over some of the names of the recently scraped class 42/43 warships. Rodney was named after the WW2 battleship HMS Rodney en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Rodney_(29) looking forward to seeing her run. Jon
I got a Red Arrows LWB van at a boot sale for £2, sold on eBay for £12. And the diesel 50021 was indeed called RODNEY in real life, I scored it for haulage when it was in service years ago - and it was named after a warship, nothing to do with Only Fools and Horses LOL.
Wow! That's fantastic - I bought one yesterday in fact for £3.50, so still pretty good! haha that's good to hear... I'm glad it wasn't named after that Rodney, lol! All the best, Sam :)
Quite a shoping u had. I'm expecting a big shipment of models too. I won some nice "bids" on ebay for very good prices (only 1 was above 50 GBP), but more on them when they arrive.
Hey Sam. Nothing like a splurge in a good model show. Your Southern coaches are Maunsells but painted in Bullied Sunshine Green . Replica coaches were originally Mainline. When Palitoy stopped selling Mainline the Chinese factory which I think was Kader kept making the stock and Replica bought it and sold in U.K. . Eventually Kader set up their own operation which was Bachmann , which is why some of the old Mainline models (the Manor might be one) turned up in the Bachmann range. Replica is still on the go , but I think only sell spares now . Sometimes see them at shows. The Bachmann Mk1s available now are new tooling and not related to these coaches. They really are very nice and a good bargain second hand. Rodney was an Admiral in the RN which is why the Class 5- is named after him. For a while the 50s were named after Warships and I think Benbow was a battleship.
Hi Russell - absolutely, I thoroughly enjoyed myself! Thanks for the info on those - so Sunshine green is the phrase I'm looking for! Thanks for the history of Replica too, very useful and interesting to know! I'm impressed that Rodney was a real loco then... but luckily no ties to only fools, lol! Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Thanks very much Simon - yes I was very happy! It's only this past year or so that I've been visiting them - and it's well worth the drive!! Thanks for watching, Sam :)
the triangular bumps on the roof of the break mk 1 is a southern feature which was a perascope for long expresses but hornby and bacman can't be bothered to make a different tooling!
You lucky devil! I wish I could have gone to one, but I went to Setchfields in Poole to buy tank kits on Saturday. All is fair ^^ Anyways enjoy the new items! -Alex
Great haul, Sam I do enjoy those types of videos o you rambling and talking. I do log the southern coaches and it's nice to see more ocean wagons. Looked like some good prices on that stuff too, great video and keep up the good work.
Hi Rowan, thanks very much mate - yes I quite like doing these too! Glad you liked the stuff anyway - yes I was more than happy with those prices! Thanks for watching, Sam :)
The class 50s were named after the battleships from WWII; Rodney is one of the Nelson class battleships, with distinctive three turrets forward of the bridge, each with three 16" guns. The original design was for a full length battleship, but the inter-war treaties caused it to be "cut down". Not sure it had anything to do with loading-gauge!
Love these unboxing vids mate. Those replica railways coaches are standard BR mk1 coaches. And replica railway was swallowed by Bachmann I think in the 90’s. Only just come across your Channel. Keep up the good work.
Thanks so much, and for the info on those - yeah I think you're right about that - they're the same ones that Bachamann produced anyway! Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Replica Railways used ex-Mainline tooling. By a convoluted route they were bought by Bachmann's owners, Kader. The Wrenn Utility wagon is lovely. I managed to source some brand new Southern green Bachmann MkI's recently for £17 each. Bargain!
Many thanks for the info on those - I've been reading up on them a little since I did this! That sounds fantastic £17 is very very good for a Bachmann coach! All the best, Sam :)
Your Hornby Southern coaches were the GWR coaches with a different roof. Hornby just changed the roof to make em look maunsell. A gripe us SR modellers had with hornby for many years
hi sam's trains i just wanted to thank you for your review of the hornby 14xx it has become my favorite locomotive and i just got a model of it thank you
I've always wanted that green L.N.E.R locomotive and those vans and branch line coaches but how many times do I have 2 tell u how AWSOME your videos r 11/10
the Ocean wagons will look so cool now that you have lots of them! If you do open a model shop one day will visit it, as long as you sell H0e narrow gauge
Sitting here drooling over your goodies....lol Enjoyable to watch from start to finish...That's a fantastic haul...I'd say the money you saved from the other lots probably paid for the last lot. Nice one mate :)) You're quite right...model train fairs are a great way to pick up some good bargains as opposed to Ebay. I picked up some bits from a show, recently, and most of it was at least a fiver cheaper than online...and that was without the haggling...I must try some of that next time...lol ;) All the best mate :))
haha! Thanks Tom.... I've drooled over your locos and things before though, so not to worry! haha I think you're probably right there - I felt pretty pleased with that! haha yeah - I just casually ask if they'll take a certain price - some of them are rude and say bog off, but mostly they accept it quite happily! All the best, Sam :)
If you had a model train store over here across the Atlantic and more importantly in the Saint Louis area then yes I would buy from with lout a doubt Sam!
I always love these train fair vids. Also, am I the only one who thinks those SR coaches (NOT BR) look like the new railroad coaches for SR? HORNBY REUSES OLDER COACHES CONFIRMED another thing, since those coaches you have no brakes, use the utility van! Long comment I know
Oh really?? I've not seen their railroad southern coaches yet - I'll look those up! Ooh nice idea too - I will have to use that then yeah!! :D Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Sam'sTrains hey Sam, a tip for repairing locos, if you need to repair a motor and the pickup is a clip type, you can run it in between the wheels and if you get it on the rails it will work the same if not better, like my custom railroads no.3, a Chattanooga locomotive that's a modified 0-8-0 and is now a 2-8-0, I repaired the chasie to it and did that modification to the pickup and it runs better now than it did then, I've also never had to scrap a engine, dry rails and good running, Hunter
Those green southern coaches look absolutely gorgeous!, bargain for 30 quid :P I hadnt heard of replica railways (googled them, they are UK based, over in swindon lol) before this video so I guess you discover a new brand every day aye? they certainly seem to have a bit more detail given to them comapred to the hornby railway ones. Loving all the rolling stock you nabbed, oh I do like the look of that red arrow boxcar! Btw I googled that diesel you got, yes it was actually called rodney in real life LOL, it is still preserved you'll be glad to hear! I'd happily visit your model shop very day if you had one and lived alot closer to me, (I live in stevenage btw lol)
Thanks mate! Me too - I was really chuffed with those! :D haha! Yeah I've been hearing about Rodney, I just think it's a really funny name for an engine, lol! Thanks very much mate... I can definitely dream ;D All the best, Sam :)
Hi David - yes thanks it was fantastic! It was just stalls at the one I visited... but that suits me, hehe! It was a train fair down in Nottingham! :D All the best, Sam :)
Looks like you got some good stuff there! I love the look of that N2…I've been looking for a cheap GNR Green one and £50 sounds excellent! I'm looking forward to the review! Where was this fair? It sounds like there was a lot of stuff on offer there! Great watch as usual Sam :-)
Thanks very much Lukas, yes I was super pleased with the N2 - I thought £50 was a really really good price to be honest! It was one at Nottingham, but it travels around so I'm told! Cheers, Sam :)
Freight wagons for a third of the price? I need to go their. Also I would go to a shop if you made it, at least I know you won't damage them. One more thing, do you know if Bachmann sells oo scale to US buyers? (you probably don't know that but with all the good Bachmann locomotives I see on your channel I wanted to ask).
haha! Yeah for sure! :D That's good to hear - I hope I can do that one day! :3 I'm not too sure really... the best thing to do is check their site, and see if they do! Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Lovely collection of items sam you have really good taste in loco's and rolling stock. Could you run all the ocean wagons with either 2 countys or With you tts king. Great vid sam well done :D
Queens birthday long weekend in Australia means Model Railway exhibitions for us too. Got a Roco Prussian G10 class steam loco for only 120 Aussie bucks :)
Hi Sam! I've purchased the Hornby R3316 S&DJR 2P from Hatton's at a bargain price of £61 and it's new. I've also purchased it with Hornby R3420 BR Drummond 700 Class for £59. Do you think those were good purchases?
I want a n2 so bad! They look so cool! They kinda remind me of a 14xx with the configuration. U know, with driving wheels in the front and a trailing wheel in the back. Btw I would buy from your model train shop if u owned one.
Thanks for the comment! Yeah they really are lovely - and I see what you mean with the 14xx yeah! haha, that's very kind of you to say! All the best, Sam :)
Twenty pounds minimum on eBay? I have my own southern railway utility van and that cost me about ten pounds, granted it didn't have a box, great railway treasure trove you have there. Keep the faith - callum
haha! Blimey that is a good price! But yeah it is the box that gives it the value of course - and I think this was new, looking at the wheels! Thanks for watching mate, Sam :)
Nice video you done well with what you bought a nice selection,you paid about the right money for them they all look good ,some people on eBay Are so greedy they look up the prices of a new one then split in half for an old one ,it's a minefield you can pay silly money for an old loco, I must get round to a fair me self for bits and pieces I want, I've got some Hornby green mk 1s with white roofs (boxed ) if your interested I bought them in a job lot.
Thanks Michael, yeah I thought the prices were spot on for this lot really! Yes, you've definitely got to watch it on Ebay, though sometimes the prices are excellent! That's very kind of you mate, but I think I'll stick with those I bought, I'm more than happy with them! Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Sam'sTrains yea they weren't actually both triang one was modern hornby they were also selling cheap triang locos too! next year you could come down and have a look there is loads of stuff down there!
Hey Sam, do you take Railworks Requests? If so, can you do a review on the Clear Creek Narrow Gauge route? I'm also sending you on a quest. It's the 1930s and even though the wild west age has died, many gangsters from the Sicilian Mafia from the big city are after a big Mining Company payroll and a large bank shipment of gold bars. Your mission is to take the train (a locomotive, a baggage car and 4 coaches) loaded with the Mining Company payroll and the gold from Golden, Colorado to Silver Plume, Colorado. Be careful, some thugs might try some tricks to delay you and steal the treasures in the baggage car, be prepared! Good Luck!
I'm from america so i don't really understand the pound price to american but what you got for those southern railway coaches sound better then what us Americans have to pay for one coach ~.~ and i would love to see a video of two of your strongest locomotives double heading all the rolling stock you have in your collection around the layout
Ahh okay... but yes, the prices there were definitely very good, even though they're only basic with not too much detail on them! haha - all my rolling stock wouldn't fit on the layout, I know that for sure, lol! Thanks a lot for watching, Sam :)
Sam'sTrains even if you had three different trains pulling them lol.but i dont care to much about detail as long as it looks good on the outside and anymore here in the usa passenger coaches are 50 to 60 bucks for one with no detail on the inside but as i said before i dont mind no inside detail but im gonna psy that much for one it better have detail inside it to lol
Well I just ask if they'll take a certain price! I did actually ask one guy if he'd sell his Ocean wagon to me for £2.50... he was really rude and turned me away... so I went to the store next to him, and bought those 5 for like £2 each... and he saw... I gave him a little smile ;D Good luck with your barterings! :D Sam :)
whenever you do a video and you show the price I have to double it cause I live in nz and I cry for the price and all so what's the deal with the wall of fame agen?
Awhh, that is a shame mate! The wall is just where people can send their art in, to have it shown in videos, that's all! :D Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Sam you're my hero! Haha I loved this video, and the idea to spend everything at the show, I challenged myself not to get anything at the Alley Palley show and nothing really ticked my fancy Excellent dream for the future too, me too but I think we'd like the idea of just sitting waiting for discuss trains and have some student doing the shelving for us hahaha Excellent video my friend M
Luv you to open a model train shop hehehe You do like your Ocean wagons . i do like to collect the wrenn wagons when i can not been to a train fair for sometime think my last visit to one was in Norwich.
haha I'd love it too - maybe one day! Yeah got to love those wagons, got a fair handful of them now! They are great to visit - I've only just discovered them this past few years! All the best, Sam :)
You bored me hook, line and sinker nearly all the way through this. But when I caught sight of Broome Manor, my face lit up and broke into a cheerful grin.

Oh dear Kelly - please don't watch anything that bores you, lol! ;D
Glad you liked seeing Broome manor though!!
Thanks for watching - Sam :)

Sorry I meant to say Rodney was a battleship, Benbow was too
Thanks so much for your enthusiasm. It makes us as excited as you are.
haha thanks Joe - I really can't help it though, haha!
Cheers mate,
Sam :)
Very nice collection of locos and rolling stock Sam, at excellent precises. I wish I had model railway sales like yours near me in East Kent...Simon
Thanks very much Simon - yes I was very happy! It's only this past year or so that I've been visiting them - and it's well worth the drive!!
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
the triangular bumps on the roof of the break mk 1 is a southern feature which was a perascope for long expresses but hornby and bacman can't be bothered to make a different tooling!
haha! Wow I never knew about that - thanks very much for the info on that, that's very cool!
Cheers mate,
Sam :)
You lucky devil! I wish I could have gone to one, but I went to Setchfields in Poole to buy tank kits on Saturday. All is fair ^^
Anyways enjoy the new items! -Alex

I love seeing the wagons the most (^_^)

Hi Oskar, thanks a lot mate - haha, I'd love that too... maybe I'd set up a bus service for it?? ;D
Cheers mate,
Sam :)
Train Fairs are always fun! who doesnt like them!
Great video sam!
Definitely! I always love visiting them! :D
All the best mate,
Sam :)
I've always wanted that green L.N.E.R locomotive and those vans and branch line coaches but how many times do I have 2 tell u how AWSOME your videos r 11/10
I know - me too, I was so happy when I found that one! That's so kind of you hehe, really glad you enjoy them!
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
The train fair at Newton abbot is always a good one to go to!
Hi Chris, many thanks for that - I'll keep that in mind if I'm ever near by!
All the best,
Sam :)
The Class 50 is certainly either named after my old guinea pig or Lord Rodney an admiral in the 18th century.
haha... your Guinea pig most likely then ;D
Cheers,
Sam :)
Love this video Sam, I'ts like Christmas morning all over again. Cheers John.
Thanks so much John - yeah it made me feel like that too, haha!
All the best mate,
Sam :)
They really need to make a new Manor Class. I read in Model Rail magazine that it is the 3rd most requested 00 loco to have a new version of...
Agreed Jake! Is it really?? We should expect another one soon then I guess??
All the best mate,
Sam :)
the Ocean wagons will look so cool now that you have lots of them! If you do open a model shop one day will visit it, as long as you sell H0e narrow gauge
Thanks Ted! Yes I'm very pleased with those!
All the best my friend,
Sam :)
Amazing review cant wait to see more running sessions including the strongest engine session keep up the good work.
Thanks very much! Really glad you enjoyed it - yes I'll be running those sessions soon soon hopefully!
All the best,
Sam :)
Those replica railway coaches look amazing!
Thanks! They are really good actually :3
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
Sam'sTrains I can imagine they do
Well, well, well... more Ocean wagons! You'll need your heaviest loco to pull the Ocean train! Ooh, that's a good idea... *Lightbulb*
haha yes! And I definitely will... it's going to be a heavy one! :D
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
Sitting here drooling over your goodies....lol Enjoyable to watch from start to finish...That's a fantastic haul...I'd say the money you saved from the other lots probably paid for the last lot.

Thanks for watching,

Do you know if there is a lms crimson and cream utility van
I don't know actually... have you searched online for one maybe??
All the best,
Sam :)
That's a nice haul! You must have about 15 ocean wagons now, plan on putting then all on a single train in a future video?
Thanks a lot! Yeah it's around the 15 mark... yes I'm definitely hoping to do that soon! :D
Cheers,
Sam :)
I always love these train fair vids. Also, am I the only one who thinks those SR coaches (NOT BR) look like the new railroad coaches for SR? HORNBY REUSES OLDER COACHES CONFIRMED another thing, since those coaches you have no brakes, use the utility van! Long comment I know

Well if it ain't broke don't fix it
Seems as if you had a good day Sam and you forgot to put your N2 at the end.I cant wait for you to review the Manor!
Thanks Jack! Oh yeah - you're right I did! I'll try to show the manor soon for you! :D
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
since I'm a huge train fan I want to learn trains like you did
That's great to hear - good luck with that mate! :D
Cheers,
Sam :)
Those green southern coaches look absolutely gorgeous!, bargain for 30 quid :P
I hadnt heard of replica railways (googled them, they are UK based, over in swindon lol) before this video so I guess you discover a new brand every day aye? they certainly seem to have a bit more detail given to them comapred to the hornby railway ones.

Sam'sTrains you are most welcome I love your videos
6 bags welp that's better then the box you normally show or have shown in other eps,

Beautiful and good prices! Can't wait to get some trains at a fair too haha
Thanks so much!! Yeah it's such fun to go - hope you get some good bargains!!! :D
Cheers,
Sam :)
Very awsome unboxing you foundsawsome ones!!!!
Thanks very much - yeah I was super happy with this lot!
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
Do you reckon you'll be reviewing any of the loco's you just bought in the near future?
Hi Jake, absolutely - I've already filmed the N2 review! :D
Cheers mate,
Sam :)
You got some great bargains Sam must do a video of the GWR'S Manor
Thanks Trevor - and absolutely, I'm really looking forward to the Manor video!
Cheers,
Sam :)
Love all the loot! Would you suggest that i create the Hornby Trakmap tracks and make that my starting layout? Im only 14, and new to this hobby!
Hi mate! Yeah I'd suggest that - then you'll know if you enjoy it! You can always expand if you fancy it!
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
Great video mate! But you forgot the N2 at the end! xD
Oh yeah I did! No idea how I managed that, lol! Poor thing! ;D
Cheers mate,
Sam :)
Bet you had fun how many layouts were there
They all look really good can't wait to see some reviews on this stuff
What train fair was it
Hi David - yes thanks it was fantastic! It was just stalls at the one I visited... but that suits me, hehe!
It was a train fair down in Nottingham! :D
All the best,
Sam :)
The Replica Railways coaches are Southern Region MK1s
Thank you very much - I'll make a note of that!
Thanks again,
Sam :)
Just got some of the white roof coaches you mentioned £6 each delivered.😀
Wow that's great!! Hope they run good for you - they're lovely things!
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
great video mate :) got some real bargains there! will love to see those 4 wheel lms coaches running with a 0-4-0 or a 0-6-0 - all the best mate:)
Thanks very much my friend! Yes definitely - I think those will look superb with a little 0-4-0 of some kind! :D
All the best,
Sam :)
Train fair are Always awesome to pick up Nice stuff for Your model train collection,
Thanks mate - I agree, they are awesome!! :D
Thanks for watching - Sam :)
Sam'sTrains Aye, Thanks for the response, do you mind if I send Some pictures of my small collection to you trough email?
ooh lovely Southern coaches.
I know! I just couldn't resist those - I even bought a few more + a brake for them on Ebay a few weeks back too!
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
Looks like you got some good stuff there! I love the look of that N2…I've been looking for a cheap GNR Green one and £50 sounds excellent! I'm looking forward to the review! Where was this fair? It sounds like there was a lot of stuff on offer there! Great watch as usual Sam :-)
Thanks very much Lukas, yes I was super pleased with the N2 - I thought £50 was a really really good price to be honest! It was one at Nottingham, but it travels around so I'm told!
Cheers,
Sam :)
Yeah I spent a bit at my local model railway show too.
That's good to hear... the best way to spend a day! ;D
Cheers,
Sam :)
Or in my case a whole weekend! :P
those are Bulleid coaches Sam, and none of them are brake coaches but i agree they are very hard to find!
Tedthetrain productions I
Thanks a lot mate! I got a couple more on Ebay recently too - including a brake!!! :D
All the best mate,
Sam :)
Replica are owned by Bachmann, I believe. Some nice bargains there.
Thanks Nigel, ahh yeah that would explain it!
Thanks for watching mate,
Sam :)
do you happen to know where and when a model train fair in Wales is? maybe the best place to buy some model trains in person as well in wales
Hmmm no I don't, I am sorry about that - google it though, and you may find some - I'm not in the Wales area myself :/
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
Freight wagons for a third of the price? I need to go their. Also I would go to a shop if you made it, at least I know you won't damage them. One more thing, do you know if Bachmann sells oo scale to US buyers? (you probably don't know that but with all the good Bachmann locomotives I see on your channel I wanted to ask).
haha! Yeah for sure! :D
That's good to hear - I hope I can do that one day! :3
I'm not too sure really... the best thing to do is check their site, and see if they do!
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
Been waiting for this videos after you told me about it
Oh yeah! That's cool - Hope you enjoyed it mate!
Cheers,
Sam :)
Lovely collection of items sam you have really good taste in loco's and rolling stock.
Could you run all the ocean wagons with either 2 countys or With you tts king.
Great vid sam well done :D
Thanks so much mate, really glad you liked them - that's a very nice idea, I'll try that some time! :D
All the best,
Sam
Could you perhaps have bullmann Peaking out of the utility van at some point
haha! I think he's a bit too big for that... I guess he could peek through it though?? ;D
Cheers mate,
Sam :)
If you put all of your locomotives on your layout would they all fit?
No I don't think they would haha, but I've never tried ;D
Cheers mate,
Sam :)
Could you do a really long train of ocean wagons pulled by 2 counties when you review the manor
Ooh that's a cool idea - I might try that one day! :D
Cheers mate,
Sam :)
Queens birthday long weekend in Australia means Model Railway exhibitions for us too. Got a Roco Prussian G10 class steam loco for only 120 Aussie bucks :)
Ooh fantastic - that sounds brilliant, and a good price too - enjoy her! :D
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
Hi Sam! I've purchased the Hornby R3316 S&DJR 2P from Hatton's at a bargain price of £61 and it's new. I've also purchased it with Hornby R3420 BR Drummond 700 Class for £59. Do you think those were good purchases?
Absolutely - those are fantastic prices, great one! :D
Thanks for watching - Sam :)
Can you do some coach reviews? That COULD be fun
haha I could do - all of mine are pretty basic though, that's all!
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
rodney is indeed rodney in real life
I want a n2 so bad! They look so cool! They kinda remind me of a 14xx with the configuration. U know, with driving wheels in the front and a trailing wheel in the back. Btw I would buy from your model train shop if u owned one.
Thanks for the comment! Yeah they really are lovely - and I see what you mean with the 14xx yeah! haha, that's very kind of you to say!
All the best,
Sam :)
wow. I got 2 gwr coaches, a gwr autocoach and a bachman double bogied brake van for £21.50 yesterday.
Wow! That's a mega bargain - very well done! :D
Cheers,
Sam :)
Twenty pounds minimum on eBay? I have my own southern railway utility van and that cost me about ten pounds, granted it didn't have a box, great railway treasure trove you have there. Keep the faith - callum
haha! Blimey that is a good price! But yeah it is the box that gives it the value of course - and I think this was new, looking at the wheels!
Thanks for watching mate,
Sam :)
What is it with sam and ocean wagons
haha, I don't know - I just thought it'd be great to have a big rake of them! :D
Cheers mate,
Sam :)
Better reason than any, thanks.
Nice video you done well with what you bought a nice selection,you paid about the right money for them they all look good ,some people on eBay Are so greedy they look up the prices of a new one then split in half for an old one ,it's a minefield you can pay silly money for an old loco, I must get round to a fair me self for bits and pieces I want, I've got some Hornby green mk 1s with white roofs (boxed ) if your interested I bought them in a job lot.
Thanks Michael, yeah I thought the prices were spot on for this lot really! Yes, you've definitely got to watch it on Ebay, though sometimes the prices are excellent! That's very kind of you mate, but I think I'll stick with those I bought, I'm more than happy with them!
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
the reason the replica railways coaches say bachmann is because the company that has made the moulds sold them to other places
Hi Fred, thanks a lot for that mate - yes I've been reading about replica recently - it's quite an interesting subject!
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
Sam'sTrains I have a replica railways loco that says bachmann on the bottom
Thanks for the response
nice purchase
Thanks mate! Glad you liked them
Cheers,
Sam :)
class 50 number 021 named rodney is a privately preserved loco
Ahh cool - so it's very real! Thanks for the info,
Cheers,
Sam :)
which model fair did you go to I recently went to the SDRs models and miniatures and they were selling coaches for £2 each!
Wow!! That is a bargain!
I went to one in Nottingham, I don't actually know the name - that's bad isn't it?! ;D
lol!
Cheers mate,
Sam :)
Sam'sTrains yea they weren't actually both triang one was modern hornby they were also selling cheap triang locos too! next year you could come down and have a look there is loads of stuff down there!
Hiya!!! Which train fairs would you recommend would be the best to travel over to England for?? Thanks :)
Ooh I'm not sure! I'm told Warley is very good - but I've never been, I only go to my local ones! ;D
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
Sam'sTrains thanks :) I'll look it up!!! :)
i really want the N2, but what scale is it? and do you know where i can find it in the US?
Hi! Those are the Hornby N2s in 00 scale - but they run on H0 track. Ebay is probably your best bet over there! :D
Cheers,
Sam :)
You can’t get 265 tons, or even tonnes, into a 5-plank open wagon! What have you been smoking?
haha did I say that?!? :O
Sam'sTrains Yes @13:32!
Wow, Those green coaches can be called Lancaster's Coaches!
You know,start a railway series with your model trains!
Lancaster's a West Country class
Your railway series will be "Stories of British Railways"
You can change Lancaster's name of your choice and name your trains!
Ahh interesting - thanks very much for the info! :D
Thanks for watching - Sam :)
15:36 Yes! That's how the numbering works! :)
haha! I thought so - but I try not to categorically say that anything's true unless I know for sure, lol!
Cheers,
Sam :)
Hey Sam, do you take Railworks Requests?
If so, can you do a review on the Clear Creek Narrow Gauge route?
I'm also sending you on a quest. It's the 1930s and even though the wild west age has died, many gangsters from the Sicilian Mafia from the big city are after a big Mining Company payroll and a large bank shipment of gold bars. Your mission is to take the train (a locomotive, a baggage car and 4 coaches) loaded with the Mining Company payroll and the gold from Golden, Colorado to Silver Plume, Colorado. Be careful, some thugs might try some tricks to delay you and steal the treasures in the baggage car, be prepared! Good Luck!
haha! Okay mate, I'll look into doing that - no promises though, hehe!
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
Thanks Sam. Trust me, you're going to love the Clear Creek route.
Great Video, I would buy from you if you had a Model Shop.
haha, thanks very much mate! I'd try not to rip people off, that's for sure, lol!
All the best,
Sam :)
I want to go to next model train fair!!!!!!!!!!!!!
haha I know right! They're well worth a visit! :3
Cheers,
Sam :)
I'm from america so i don't really understand the pound price to american but what you got for those southern railway coaches sound better then what us Americans have to pay for one coach ~.~ and i would love to see a video of two of your strongest locomotives double heading all the rolling stock you have in your collection around the layout
Ahh okay... but yes, the prices there were definitely very good, even though they're only basic with not too much detail on them! haha - all my rolling stock wouldn't fit on the layout, I know that for sure, lol!
Thanks a lot for watching,
Sam :)
Sam'sTrains even if you had three different trains pulling them lol.but i dont care to much about detail as long as it looks good on the outside and anymore here in the usa passenger coaches are 50 to 60 bucks for one with no detail on the inside but as i said before i dont mind no inside detail but im gonna psy that much for one it better have detail inside it to lol
Sam at the model train fair I swear I saw you buying the coaches also I would by from you if you ran a model shop
haha! Did you really?! Which one were you at?! D:
That's very kind of you - maybe one day that might happen! :3
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
SAM can you show your strongest train by making the train pull these coaches or wagons
Hi! Great idea - I should make a video with my strongest engines for sure!! :D
Cheers,
Sam :)
can you make a video about the old slow coach
Yeah sure! If I ever get my hands on one, hehe!
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
Sam while watching the video I noticed something funny. You sound like Wheatley from portal 2. You should actually play portal 2 it's pretty fun.
Nabstaton Don't forget Portal 1!
haha! I've never played the Portals... but I'll have to if I sound like a guy from them, lol! ;D
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
Sam'sTrains if you do you should upload it on your game channel.
do you know the models of
Trix and Märklin
Yes I know of them, but I don't personally own much of their stuff!
All the best,
Sam :)
Sam’ any way you can help me track down say some old ERTL’s like Arthur and Murdoch.
Hey Sean - you want to look for the 9F and the Standard class 2 tank! Take a look on Ebay!
Thanks for watching - Sam :)
how do you barter with model railway people? They're either too nice or too grumpy..
Well I just ask if they'll take a certain price! I did actually ask one guy if he'd sell his Ocean wagon to me for £2.50... he was really rude and turned me away... so I went to the store next to him, and bought those 5 for like £2 each... and he saw... I gave him a little smile ;D
Good luck with your barterings! :D
Sam :)
Some nice finds Sam !!!
Thanks Scott - I was so pleased with this lot!
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
if there was shops in both the UK and US (in where I reside), I would gladly buy.
Ahh, are there none near you then?? :(
All the best,
Sam :)
Great video, hope you had a great time at the train fair!
Thanks very much James, and yes I did thanks - always a great trip! :D
Thanks for watching mate,
Sam :)
All good keep up the good videos!
whenever you do a video and you show the price I have to double it cause I live in nz and I cry for the price and all so what's the deal with the wall of fame agen?
Awhh, that is a shame mate! The wall is just where people can send their art in, to have it shown in videos, that's all! :D
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
If I live in the U.K. I would definitely buy from your model shop (if you made one)
haha! That's really nice of you... maybe I will get one some day, who knows?? :D
All the best,
Sam :)
6:50 yes I love them!!!
11:18 Ryan? from Thomas and friends?
14:29 the flag of the Netherlands!
Good!!
Yeah that's Ryan!
Is it really?! I didn't know that! D:
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
red on top, white in the middle and blue on the bottom.
I bet you’ve got 9000 ocean wagons. I’ve only one. Most of my rolling stock are coaches.
haha I don't think quite 9000! That's cool though - coaches are awesome! :D
Thanks for watching - Sam :)
Sam you're my hero! Haha I loved this video, and the idea to spend everything at the show, I challenged myself not to get anything at the Alley Palley show and nothing really ticked my fancy
Excellent dream for the future too, me too but I think we'd like the idea of just sitting waiting for discuss trains and have some student doing the shelving for us hahaha
Excellent video my friend
M
haha, thanks Mark - that's fair enough... at least you don't spend compulsively! ;D
Thanks again mate, glad you liked it,
Cheers,
Sam :)
Luv you to open a model train shop hehehe You do like your Ocean wagons . i do like to collect the wrenn wagons when i can not been to a train fair for sometime think my last visit to one was in Norwich.
haha I'd love it too - maybe one day! Yeah got to love those wagons, got a fair handful of them now! They are great to visit - I've only just discovered them this past few years!
All the best,
Sam :)
