    Postage, packaging great, I feel the locomotive was as described but these locomotives usually come with a detailing back of rubbing plate, pipes etc…. Nothing mentioned in listing and no photo of inside of box confirming it was missing. Contacted rails and they offered refund which I appreciate. Other than that missing it’s a fantastic model and rails offered good advice and after care. Just wish they would have mentioned it before.

    Very nice rake of three 00 gauge railway wagons by Dapol in the iconic livery of Blue Circle Cement. Delivered promptly and safely in superb packaging. The models are just as described in great used condition. They are well made with lots of detail and graphics. Sold at a very competitive price. Excellent communications by the seller. Highly recommend this seller.

    Excellent! Item listed “As new” - product appearance and box condition all looks “brand new” to me! Perfect condition, perfect running (straight from the box), came promptly and well packaged. A top quality product with top quality service. Very good communication when package was delayed with Royal Mail (not Rails’ fault at all). Excellent value. 5* all round (and thoroughly deserved). Thank you.

    Excellent service once again from this seller. My offer was accepted promptly, and the item was delivered on schedule in a stout cardboard box with plenty of protective packing. Item all as described, and represented good value. Will not hesitate to use this seller again, and can recommend them to other eBay customers. Thank you very much.

    Excellent, generally 5 stars, although you lost a star on the description as one of the rear ditch lights doesn’t work which wasn’t mentioned. The rest of the description is accurate. The locomotive was packaged very well in a good strong, sturdy box with adequate filling. Delivery was very quick, ordered on Sunday evening, dispatched Monday and arrived Tuesday. I’m more than pleased with my purchase and thoroughly recommend the seller.

    Ordered on a Monday afternoon for a colleague who doesn't use eBay. This was the cheapest one I could find to replace the one my colleague's grandson broke 🤦‍♂️It arrived on the Thursday morning so very quick, was very well packaged and was as described in the listing. No complaints, easy and pleasant transaction and both my colleague and his grandson are happy 😁
