Stolen Loco ?

Post by BrianRobins » Tue Oct 26, 2010 5:49 pm

Can someone remind me where I have seen a register of stolen models please.

I saw this on feebay and something doesn't seem quite right, even though it has a "carrie box" :lol:

I believe the "lost models" directory is here:

Hi,
I dont think it would be stolen as he says you can go and have a look at it.
Thanks

Thanks Alan and Richard, I had a look at both and it would appear nobody has stolen a loco since 2008 :lol:

I'm not sure how the invitation to look at it excludes the possibility it might be stolen, Feebay is notorious for stolen goods and the sellers have to make the items available at some stage.

However, it didn't sell and it hasn't been re-listed.

I dont want to cast aspersions, but look at the items in the sellers feedback.....would you by a used train from this man ?
