Title: Something New for LooVille
Post by: LooVille on March 13, 2015, 08:07:32 AM
Hello, Hello All  :innocent:

How is it going? It is way to quiet here at the moment.
So I'm sharing my latest purchase  ;D

I just bought the Cantenary for LooVille..... Awesome, very exited now....

Vollmer 8040 Catenary Set N Scale
Vollmer 8000 Box w/ 25 Catenary Mast Poles with Short Arm N Scale

The guy, in Florida, was very understanding and helpfull. He is shipping for free and pack the items in one box and half the price so that duty's is not killing me.
Yea the Rand Dollar is sitting at R12.30 - $1 at the moment  :'( , but I think I still boughts a bargan.

He gave it to me for $193  :thumb:

So yea, now I wait for it to get here....

Cheers,
Evert

Very nice, catenary certainly adds another dimension to a layout.

Hi All.....

Wow.... What a wait, but they have finally arrived  :thumb:
Now I can start to play again.

Think my first step will be to lift the track in-front of the station, to make the changes for the extension of the Train Yard I'm planning.
Then I will fit the Cantenary.

Will keep you all updated with the progress soon.

Cheers

Yeah, that wait between the time you purchase something and receive it is always agonizing. 

That's a nice find.  I think I saw some at a a swop meeting recently but don't recall the price.  If you need some more I could try get details for you.

Cheers,

Niel

Tell me about it, been there a few times.
Unfortunately also had the experience that parcel's did not arrive. >:(
