    Can someone point me in the right direction please?

    I am looking for two of each of vacuum gauges and red vacuum release handles for through piping for the two 20.5T B R Standard Brake Vans that we are restoring on the Mid-Hants at Medstead and Four Marks.

    Price immaterial but it would help to know how much we are going to have to pay so I can ask the powers that be for funding.

    Many thanks in advance, either through this public forum of a PM.

    Regards
    Chris Willis

    Chris,

    Try putting an advert for what you want on 'Carex' on the LMSCA website.
    I bid for a B.R, standard vacuum gauge on Ebay last week, but forgot to update my bid & lost it . It went for £16.00 plus carriage,
    Maybe we should have something on the forum for carriage & wagon parts, as many railways must be holding on to items which people are looking for. Anybody want a B.R. suburban coach or a Mk.1 C.K. ?

    Bob.
