Wow! £890 and £645.99 respectivly. I guess you have to be quite well heeled to be a British outline Trix collector.
As an aside to this, are these locos so collectible because they are simply rare or are they well made and highly detailed models? If they are nicely detailed wouldn't it make sense for whoever owns the moulds to make a few? Not in a Hornby Lord of the Isles kind of way (I'm not knocking those who will buy and enjoy LotI) but to fill the void of British OHLE locomotives. Then again with the lack of British OHLE equipment would there be enough demand for these locos?
