Drool... I gave away a set 30 years ago that was now worth thousands...

What's the track layout - circle + outer loop with acouple of points, or figure 8 with level crossing ?

What rolling stock (engines + carriages) ?

Chris, Would you consider offering the Hornby items for sale again. I did not see them until today. I wouldn't haggle about the price.

I too have only noticed this post and was wondering about the track and rolling stock.

Chris, I wonder if you would reconsider selling the Hornby items. I wish I had seen your ad. a few weeks ago. I wouldn't haggle about the price. I would love to have them. I have a collection of Hornby and Dinky in near mint condition to which these would be wonderful addition. I also think they are works of art in their own way and certainly rare and special objects from our young years. I hope I haven't missed out on the opportunity. They are in such wonderful condition. You can email me directly if you like, my email address is patdaviesaus@netscape.net. The email is in my wifes name hence patdaviesetc. Looking forward to hearing from you either way. Thank you. Paul Davies.
