    Due to a factory clearance, we have lots of metric nuts and bolts, lockers, potentially some tools (air and electrical), plus a quantity of electrical white goods - being offered free to a good home (or homes).

    Otherwise it will sadly go in the skip.

    If your heritage railway or heritage project is interested, please drop me a private message and I'll communicate further details.

    The location is to the South East of Birmingham.

    Time is of the essence; you'd need to be free in week commencing 20th March to collect.

    I'm afraid there is no catalogue of exactly what we've got so please don't ask for it.

    Hi.

    I am interested but can't send you a message. It may be due to your settings or post count.

    There shouldn’t be anything stopping you sending a private message. I’ve double checked the settings and all appears fine this end.

    That’s really strange, not sure what the problem is as I’ve just checked again after checking when the other post from @Ken_R and still can’t see any reason why.

    If possible could you please send me a screenshot of what you are seeing so
    I can try and get to the bottom of it.

    I think the problem might be that LNER-B1-61264 has restricted his profile, which I'm guessing also restricts who can contact him?
