Piko Railbus (Blue and White)

Registered
Hello all. Having recently completed (endured) 25 years at work I was given a few bob and a clock, (which had a broken face, apporoprate somehow) Anyroad instead of being sensible and clearing some debt I thought it was time for a treat so I'm going to get myself a piko railbus and add nameplates. I have an idea to make the trailer for it into a school special;) or maybe even try to get another trailer for that. I have one of our esteemed members here on Saturday to test his to see if all is well and if so I will get one.

I really fancy the plain Blue and white but can't seem to find one without going to the US. I'm willing to pay a little bit more for the blue and white one. Does anyone know of the whereabouts of one that is for sale?, it's number is 37301.

As an aside did someone not paint one green with the speed whiskers? I would like to see those piccys again if anyone knows where they are. Ta, Dave.
 
Thanks Mel, will nag him later if hes doesn't see this and put me a piccy or two on. Have to dash.
 
Ooooooooooh, thanks very much. I shall call them tomorrow. Has anyone delt with them before?

Hi Dave

I have not dealt with them before, just found it the other day when I was looking at Piko 218. Just to let you know couldnt answer your pm, as I am a newbie.

Daryl
 
Thanks. Called today but no answer. The address is just a house not a shop. Shall try again tomorrow.

Good luck........................
Online ordered of the telegraph poles @£6.00 paid with paypal.....
Got a refund today as there no longer available:(
 
I expect it will be the same with the blue/cream OBB railcars too if I'm honest! The price is very cheap if they've still got a set. If they refund if it's not available then you've nothing to loose from trying to buy through the website!

Ohh yus they get ten outta ten for honesty and speed on the contact and refund front :thumbup:
 
Don't trust the internet so will wait to speak to him or take my money elsewhere! Thanks for the replies.

Second one from the left is available at Glendale Junction .
 
Thanks Steve but kind of set on the plain Blue and White. However Arcadia have a red one for £299! I have 1 reverse r1 curve (a cross over) and reading Whatleps report on them I will struggle with this. Mmh!
 
Just managed to speak to this chap (he didn't reply to my calls, I had to call him again) and as suspected he has none in and was looking on the manfacturers web site to get me one. He hasn't got a clue!! Thinks it may have been discontinued!! or not been produced yet. I didn't enlighten him and even if he has the Thomas in at £98 (want one to turn into a Jinty) I will pay more to someone I trust and like.

Still if anyone comes accross the blue and white :bigsmile: one let me know please. Ta!, Dave.
