I'm sure it would look better painted black too. Like this...........Just a quickie repaint, done yesterday on a £10 purchase and, unlike any Mainline loco, it runs beautifully. And the wheels haven't fallen off, or jammed...... Edited August 9, 2023 by 33C added photo. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butler Henderson Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Wonder if it be possible to fit the valve gear off the current model. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
33C Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 (edited) Has anybody got Triang-Hornby sets with the photo's of the models, set in a photo-shopped landscape, that covered the track and tunnel mouth's? (Pic.1)Also, the drawn side panel type, e.g. "Express Passenger"? (Pic.2) If so, can you post a picture? Trying to find out just how many kinds there are. Would also like to know more about the artists of the latter. D. ivory and C. Harrison were two i know about.

Looks like the sort of thing that would be supplied by Hornby to be sold through a catalogue or a chain of department stores in the days when they had sensible toy departments. Its the sort of thing that t'internet and all the rest swept away. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering we can ridicule jigsaws, that strange LNER smokeboxed LMS Princess with GWR Castle inside cylinder block is just as bad.... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
