MyRule1 Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 Prompted by a thread about Hornby resellers I looked at Sevenside who used to wholesale Hornby group products, often found at preserved railways. They no longer wholesale Hornby products but I did find this British Railways (sic) loco https://severnsidewholesalers.co.uk/railway/models/british-railways-die-cast-diesel-loco-with-light-and-sound-in-window-box/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Oldddudders Posted January 3, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 3, 2021 A bargain at £16.99, even if you only keep the handrails. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordon s Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 (edited) Never seen one before, so curiosity got the better of me. Although it says Team City on the box, they appear under numerous names in Google, so suspect one factory, probably in China acting as a wholesaler. They seem to be battery operated with a switch for the lights and horn. Some way from DCC....... https://shopee.ph/☜▤✌1-87-Dongfeng-locomotive-carriage-alloy-model-sound-and-light-classical-green-leather-train-chil-i.326386535.5661754965 https://faroe.desertcart.com/products/42569482-acefun-diecast-metal-train-model-toy-classic-train-toy-with-sound-and-light-vehicle-playset-green Edited January 3, 2021 by gordon s 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steamport Southport Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 I've seen Team City cars and other vehicles in bargain shops like B&M and Home & Bargain. Normally sets of things like fire, police and ambulances. Usually for less than £10. I've never noticed any trains though. This is an American eBay listing of the stuff I mean. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Team-City-1-64-Diecast-Vehicles-6-Pack-Classic-Car-Models-/173629048491 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
