Standard LGB, or the Aster model?
Analogue, or would you prefer digital?
Sound?

The French or the American style model? Mikado just means 2-8-2 wheel arrangement.

I have one for sale on commission with Andrew - he will be open to a reasonable haggle...

All works as it should, just a bit dusty! It became surplus when I indulged in a Sumpter Valley Mallet.

Hi could you tell me about the history of this model please as I might be interested? Did you buy from new? Approximately how old is it and had it had much use?

Thanks,

Mark

I bought it 2nd-hand from Andrew about 18 months ago and it had two circuits of my indoor set-up before being packed back in its box pending a house move (which still hasn't happened). Unfortunately, its prior history is unknown to me but I found it to be a smooth runner with great slow control. It is only put for sale to pacify the exchequer upon purchase of the Mallet...
