My HORNBY Oliver does not work anymore and as BACHMANN does not offer an Oliver model I need to buy a new one. The trouble is HORNBY has discontinued him and I cant find a model anywhere. So does anyone know where I can find one if so please provide a link or has a NEW Oliver that they would like to sell or just has a suggestion for me please reply ASAP.
Thank You,
John (thomasj219)
Try the link TobyTheTram16 gave me in Where to get Hornby and Bachmann stuff.
What problem does Oliver have? Have you tried to repair him?
Here is a link :

I would order it over the phone. And you must contact them for overseas postage anyways.
Good Luck
Rather than a fully new model, have you tried a new chasis?
Alternatively, do you know what is wrong with the current one? Is a bearing dry and need oiling? cog broken? Pickups dirty?

I think he would have asked about how to fix it if it was viewed possible. And plus, buying a whole new chasis for a specific Oliver model would be extremly hard to find, and would be expensive anyways. I think that he just needs a new model.
