WANTED.... Piko Coach and Chinese Passengers.....

Couple of things I'm looking for, just on the off-chance than anyone here has either or both they'd be willing to part with:

1) I'm looking for a PIKO 37602 2nd/Baggage combine, in DB Green, the "rebuilt" 3-axle coaches - I've just sourced a rake of three coaches to run with my newly-arrived BR64, but missed out on the baggage car to match them. I know that one or two dealers might still have a new one left, but I'd prefer a reasonably priced second-hand one.

2) to suit the above coaches, has anyone got some SEATED figures from the Chinese "not-Prieser" knock-offs, the ones that are actually about 1/24-1/25 scale rather than the larger true G versions (but NOT the much smaller gauge 1 1/29-1/30 types)? I could use anything from a dozen upwards, just to put a few figures in each of the DB coaches, and wondered if anyone might have imported a large bag and then decided they were a little too small for LGB coaches?

Anything you have that might be suitable, please drop me a PM - reasonable quantities of spondoolicks are waiting.... ;)

if you need the baggage car i can still get to the services I met u at last time.
However are you going to squeeze a price this time?
cos i have a fully lit coach with metal wheels and extra lights for two more coaches for your rake if this helped.
cheers

Further update, I think I may have sourced a reasonably-priced 37602 baggage combine, a stock one with plastic wheels - anyone know of a dealer from whom I could get one of the triple-axle metal wheelsets for this coach (actual Piko ones, not the smaller LGB wheels)? The only things I can find listed are the two-axle sets, and given how expensive they are anyway I really don't want to have to buy two of those and have an axle left over.....

Still on the lookout for some 1/25 passengers for these! :)

Thanks,
Jon.

Tops n Slots in Fleetwood do them Jon.

That's brilliant, many thanks - in stock, AND at a reduced sale price - one three-axle pack all ordered and paid for! :D

Just to update this request thread - I've now got my 37602 baggage combine AND the new metal wheelsets for it - thanks again for the heads-up on them - so I'm now fully sorted with a four-car rake... how well the BR64 will handle them all remains to be seen, as the cars feel VERY heavy!
I've just posted a new thread here:
http://www.gscalecentral.net/rolling-stock-passenger/changing-piko-coach-wheels/
asking about swapping the plastic wheels on the baggage car over to the metal ones without breaking anything in the process!

I'm still looking for some cheap or cheap-ish passengers in a suitable size!

Thanks,
Jon.
