Blue Tiger around RM500-800. I have two of those, suka sangat BT la, hehe.


This is my Blue Tiger, HO scale:












If tak silap, BurungHantu planning to sell his Blue Tiger in his pic. Get it quick!

Alternatively, can buy from Eurolokshop.

Here are some links:
Keretapi Store (Malaysia)
Model Train Stuff (USA)
E-Hattons (UK)

thanks. i bought the Blue Tiger model from Euroloshop, price including shipment + insurance was around RM550, and it was in 2007.




hi bro, lama tak dengar cerita? hahaha. nah, i wont sell my Blue Tiger. i envy you got two, and looking for another 1 now. search my luck in eBay, last time there was a seller sold his Blue Tiger (new) and the last person won the bid was around USD70++. damn cheap.

Hahaha, jeles pulak. If you wanna get another one, might as well tambah duit buy the sound equpped one la. I wanna push off one of my BT later and get a sound equipped one.

I am also interested in trains but not as much as cars.

I have two train sets, which is a Hornby Intercity 225 and a Life like Santa Fe Diesel train set.
I just collect those sets and play with it once a while, therefore I don't Build scenery's or or dioramas for the sets

ive also got one set Hornby Intercity 225... got it as a bday present a long time ago when i was staying at UK...

+ borrowed image... not mine but the same one la..

there are a shop in usj 10 that sell train set , i have been there and there are having promotion at that time

a begineer set cost around RM 900 and that is analog , digital set abit expensive

if abang Vinc interested i can go and ask for the contact number or see if they have any web site or not

the boss is very nice and he give me some model train magazine

Yeah, it's called Trains N Toys. They stock up alot of Marklin and Trix trains at their shop. Kinda pricey plus i dont like Marklin system.

Trains N Toys Sdn Bhd
12 USJ 9/5P, Subang Business Centre, Subang Jaya
Malaysia 47620
Contact : 0380242118
Fax : 0380243118

what is the different , the boss told me that thier train is fom german punya so i think must be very good in quality

not too sure about the price because first time

Yep, the quality is superb la. American and Japanese also kalah, hehe but with quality comes high price too. Marklin uses AC to power the trains while the other brands like Atlas, Kato, Athearn, Tomix, Hornby, Lima and Bachmann use DC. Marklin is very pricey and they usually manufacture European models only.

American starter set is way cheaper. You can pick one up for USD40-50 and ship it to Malaysia for USD20-40. That's still cheaper than Marklin or Trix starter sets.

thanks for the information , no wonder the train set for 1 pcs is around RM 800 (train that got smoke come out) and also the lamp post , house,car all very expensive

luckly i didn't buy at that time .

so bro u buy the train only or you buy the whole set include the diorama .

now i also tak tau want to go for train set or marine fish because both will cost me around Rm 1300 to set up

Yup, thats the one I have as well, my sister bought it 4 me thru ebay while she was in the UK. I heard that there is another set of the Hornby Intercity 225(The box design is different)

I think maybe one day Im gonna order the track pieces slowly.

i got one set of hornby..bought it last year in UK during visit plus several hornby digital controller, i also got one set of piko bought it drom daikong in kl..around rm500++..so far i got 10 street lamps bought from ebay..but until now got no plan n ideas to built up such scenery....i m still lookin for loco, commuter or coaches similar like used by KTM

I bought the train set, then the diorama i did it myself on a very small board. The board size also around 3x2ft. Very simple to do. If you need help, a couple of us railway modellers dont mind. We are in the same dillemma. I need to buy a bigger fish tank for my Goldfish also but then, need the money to setup a bigger layout(diorama), hahahaha.


I have some extra brand new tracks for sale. PM me if you need some.

Wow, nice collection. That Piko trainset is one of my favourite. You bought it from Raymond?

I guess you are very keen on Digital. I use MRC Prodigy Express. Got it off Ebay for RM300 when the MY currency was stronger a couple of months ago.

maybe raymond la..i forgot the seller name..all i know is daikong hobby shop..hehehe...not keen on digital...but at tis moment i m lookin for terminal that similar to malaysian one

huhu... every time i read a new post i got poison!~... huhu.. lucky my low budget still controlling me....

Hehe, i know how u feel danoneism. Last time cannot tahan, terus spent all my money on these trains. Nowadays slow down already.

Below is Bachmann DF11 China Railways mainline locomotive. Very smooth runner plus almost silent. It weighs a ton!
