Ruffnut Thorston Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 It's an 'orrible Farish diecast thing. I know, I've got one (body). Perhaps I should put it up! There might be a sucker out there! At first glance I thought it was two Hornby Halls.... Graham Farish King...it looks like a Hornby Tender though.... Is that a Wrenn Castle?

IMHO mostly tat. Most of the HD/Wrenn stuff isn't worth a lot. The TTR coaches are wrong scale if they are the later ones. There's an Airfix autocoach and a Lima siphon - both common There might be an odd rarity in there. The HD EMU, if it's boxed and in good nick, could be worth something.

Il Grifone Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 (edited) Quite a mixed bag there...Hornby Dublo (Including the EMU!), Graham Farish OO, LIMA, Airfix (GMR), TRIX (Including the twin tender Flying Scotsman), Wrenn, Playcraft, Even some "Kit-built"!

Th eprice is a bit OTT, but some of the items actually ARE a bit rare....but what is the condition! The Dublo EMU is missing the bogie sideframes, which are expensive and hard to find, so it's seriously compromised valuewise. Similarly the Dublo buildings would be worth more, if they hadn't received the attention of a paint brush. I can't see anything else worth much either.
