Il Grifone Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Anyone know if the red box ones ever had metal couplings? Perhaps he should buy this one and swap them over, much later model in earlier box. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Hornby-Dublo-D20-32097-BR-Restaurant-Car-SUPERB-BOXED-LOVELY-EXAMPLE-/181085156737?pt=UK_Trains_Railway_Models&hash=item2a29843581 I would assume the red boxes started in 1959 with the launch of 2 rail, so it's possible. It would depend on stocks at the time. The restaurant cars were quite popular, so could well have been due for a rerun. Presumably new boxes would have been printed for the release of the maroon cars around this time. Of course the chances of a model in the wrong box is high after all this time.

Horsetan Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 (edited) I know some peoples' activities give modellers a bad name, but even so I didn't expect to see these listed under 'Finescale'................................... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Black-Knee-Boots-/181121675130?pt=UK_Trains_Railway_Models&hash=item2a2bb16f7a Another form of masochism? Funny you should mention that, though. That bloke I bought parts of a Bachmann Ivatt 4 from; well, after its tender was received by me, he then listed a latex catsuit..... ....and since we're in the mood, Pam Ayres wrote a poem entitled "Fifty Shades of Grey": FIFTY SHADES OF GREY - (a husband's point of view) : The missus bought a Paperback, down Shepton Mallet way, I had a look inside her bag; ... T'was "Fifty Shades of Grey". Well I just left her to it, And at ten I went to bed. An hour later she appeared; The sight filled me with dread... In her left she held a rope; And in her right a whip! She threw them down upon the floor, And then began to strip. Well fifty years or so ago; I might have had a peek; But Mabel hasn't weathered well; She's eighty four next week!! Watching Mabel bump and grind; Could not have been much grimmer. And things then went from bad to worse; She toppled off her Zimmer! She struggled back upon her feet; A couple minutes later; She put her teeth back in and said I am a dominater !! Now if you knew our Mabel, You'd see just why I spluttered, I'd spent two months in traction For the last complaint I'd uttered. She stood there nude and naked Bent forward just a bit I went to hold her, sensual like and stood on her left tit! Mabel screamed, her teeth shot out; My god what had I done!? She moaned and groaned then shouted out: "Step on the other one"!! Well readers, I can't tell no more; About what occurred that day. Suffice to say my jet black hair, Turned fifty shades of grey Edited April 13, 2013 by Horsetan 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
