plarail grumpy thomas siding set

10 Replies, 15866 Views

i snagged this online last week. the seller had a start of $25NZD and it was due to close tonight. i offered her a $75 buy now, and she accepted, so it arrived yesterday.
it was her sons, and she had held on to it for 12 years, but has hit financial problems so selling stuff off. she has more plarail, its in storage so ive told her to let me know when shes ready to sell, as i will buy.
ive dealt with 3 or 4 new zealand sellers who are japanese this year, and one a year or so back, and every one of them has had more to sell that they hadnt listed yet. im not sure if thats a good thing or not... Angel

yes, that pic shows grumpy thomas. unfortunately, it was a standard plarail thomas. however, i bought a grumpy thomas a few years ago, so was able to correct this little problem.

Another great haul for Sunhuntin...we may have to change that name to TomyHuntin soon. I like the apple and oranges crates. Wish I had more.

Awsome! I have considered getting this , I have the angry thomas but no set. Great find my friend! Espicially for that price man, great job my friend! Love the kitty shots Wink I can't say how many times my cat will come and "monitor" the trains. She sits and watches me as I build on to my tracks. Whenever I have trains running, she's at the center ( it is trouble however when she switches the switch rails ) Smile I call her the Conductor Of The Smallway Wink lol

thanks, guys. im really pleased with it all, especially as it confirms where grumpy thomas came from.
super, tomyhuntin could be good, lol. ive been sunhuntin online for 10 years now, so too late to change. even have it on my motorbike, lol.
T-R-Y, cats are crazy when it comes to chasing things. most of ours have been caught derailing things. good thing its not easy to break. a friend of mine runs HO and has a heck of a time with his cats causing issues. quite often finds a certain digger has been pushed into the pond scenery, lol.
