I like fixing broken stuff - put it this way, one of my favoured searches on eBay is "Spares"! Have had a few bargains that just needed a little TLC to return to use. The Walthers Dash 8 on my website had a broken front truck pivot when I bought it - repaired it and now have a great loco for less than half retail price. Latest would be a pair of Fleischmann HO coaches listed as spares/repair - one of them just needed a few cracked steps re-gluing and a respray for the roof, the other has become some very useful parts - not bad for £10 including P&P, when new ones are £20+. <br /> <br />I also enjoy fitting DCC decoders and wiring lighting, etc. Have rediscovered a pile of resistors I bought a few years ago during my brief "electronics" phase, paid about £1 for whole swathes of assorted resistors on tapes which now turn out to be very handy for DCC lighting. Now I'm looking up the supplier again in search of LEDs - they have packs of 25 for £1 which will enable me to fit out most of my Athearn fleet with directional lighting. Scenery just doesn't interest me as much!
