Hi guys,
So I am a new member here and have recently been in a bit of a struggle trying to find old GWR or LNER HST first class seats for sale (From trains destined to go to scrap)
I contacted CFBOOTH (they said they do not have any at the moment if anyone has any update when they will have some that would be great)
I also contacted Angel trains who said Arlington would have them (I contacted them and a person named Carl emailed me once asking what I would offer them disappeared and hasn’t replied since) and they also said Porterbrook would have some (They guy there called Gary replied 2 times before disappearing and never replying again saying he would contact me in may however this would most probably not happen)
I then contacted GWR directly but they said that they were under Department of Transport control and that they had to reject offers of that kind due to that reason.
I then contacted DFT about this but they never mentioned as such and my only option is from EBay for £350 which is obviously a rip off.
Any suggestions or help on how I could obtain these seats because I’m struggling a lot.
I have attached a photo of the kind of train seats I’d love to have
