RMweb Gold Ian Hargrave Posted March 6, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 6, 2019 So when Robin you go upscale,I would be more than happy to relieve you of your 45XX.I have just the one and it’s lonely and in early BR black.Besides which,with the eventual incoming of the new Colletts ,I am lacking suitable tank motive power. Bereft of Froth City. 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from the bogies the body was an excellent moulding I bought the first one for about 2 quid twenty or more years ago there is always plenty of them on Ebay they never seem to sell I bid on the one I got when it was posted for the second time I believe, then I forgot about it till I got the email asking to pay. 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my library (which is really a lot of books on the shelf!) of GW books there is 'GW steam in the West Country from 1990' which I probably haven't looked ate since it was published. However for the past few days its been my favourite bedroom reading especially for the early pictures of the thirties and forties when it really was a great railway. Pictures of long scrapped Bulldogs, Saints and Stars in remarkably good quality pictures of the areas typically scenic backgrounds, are a joy to peruse all over again.
