I too saw this on ebay and thought about putting a bid in, but in the end didnt bother and went off and bought some more track i needed for my extension.

How much did you pay for it if you dont mind me asking?

Looks like its well built and a good runner none the less.

Very nice, but why is it carrying a cylinder of automotive aircon refrigerant on the footplate? (The light blue gas cylinder)
