I think I have a couple which have been in my loft for years, they were poor runners when I last tried them but you would be welcome to salvage any parts. Let me check in the morning for you.

Well B1vic5 it might be your lucky day. J72 LNER 581 has just had a quick test run and appears to be ok.
It is surplus to my requirement and your are very welcome to it. I have one of the black British RaIlways ones as well but one of the wheels has a break in it and the front axel is broken. If anybody else wants it for spares then shout.
If you would like this B1vic5 then probably the best thing is to PM me and we can sort out getting it to you.
I do not have a box for it.
