..toys.
I've started collecting these. Costing a fair bit but when you have to have something.....
.Triumph police car which has a small record player built in for 'police radio' sounds.


This is an Austin 1800 with cable control.

Re: Battery Operated...

Is this the one you were restoring? Or a new one?

Re: Battery Operated...

This is the one I shall be restoring when time permits........






this is tinplate with a growl motor. I quite like it as it is but may do it one day.

Re: Battery Operated...

The Triumph and the Austin are in superb condition!
The plastic ones were less likely to survive a giant foot from above when left on the carpet, or a tumble down stairs.

(I spy finescale gauge 1? It might be O gauge, but the point looks too broad))

Re: Battery Operated...

Excellent! Good luck with the O gauge.

My garden progress in G scale, interspersed with some of my sillier trains, can be found at:

Indoors I've mainly concentrated on portable exhibition layouts and especially lately small whimsical *battery powered* (to stay on topic)
display items.

Re: Battery Operated...

I've checked your work out before,great stuff. The oo layout has been a good learning curve for me and a saviour from self destruction.Literally. I have some great plans which will be started when my resturant shuts later in the year.....Cant wait!
It will be a sad moment when I run my last train on the oo but the next one will be lots better given what I've learnt in the last few years.
