Class 37s on Ebay   
Folks,

Last week two Wensleydale Railway based Class 37s, 37 198
and 37 275, were put up for sale on eBay ('condition - Used')

The eBay site now says

'The seller ended this listing early because the item is no longer 
available for sale.'

What was that all about then?

The person offering to sell them recently purchased a 'Sexy Lingerie - 
Satin Embroidered Basque' ...

Just the thing to wear under a hi-vis vest in the cab ...

"It is a strict conditon of sale that the loco cannot remain at, be used by 
or return to the Wensleydale Railway once left site, nor can it be swapped 
for another loco with the intention of doing the same.
This item is advertised elsewhere and the seller retains the right to 
withdraw the item from sale and decline certain bids."

All sounds very bizarre to me. I certainly wouldn't have bid with dodgy 
terms like that (....... if I had the money in the first place!!)
