Ah - The Duchess of Atholl ! That was the loco with my first train set. Hornby Dublo 3 rail. Built up a big layout when I was at school. Flogged the lot a few years after to go to Switzerland skiing. IDIOT ! Worth big money now if still with original boxes and in good condition. Ho-hum. Thanks Mike.

hi yes i was going to do stories of ann and i bonzo and tinkebell travelling across the world to get the black engine but i was running out of ideas and the ice-cream van was knackered like we were, plus it was going off the subject of the building of m.a.r railway a bit, and it was a bit silly. So yes back to the grindstone or is it the footplate? i can never remember.take care mike/ann. X .... hammer happy thumbsup camera
