RedRich Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 Cap''n road prison 36, what we've got here is a failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach. So you get what we had here last week, which is the way he wants it, well he gets it. I don't like it any more than you men. You gonna get used to wearin them chains for a while Luke. Don't you ever stop listenin to them clinking. Cause they gonna remind you of what I've been sayin, for your own good. Luke replies I wish you'd stop bein so good to me cap'n. These last few posts remind. me of my favourite scene from Cool hand Luke. Keep trying Dave, don't give up. Rich, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DiveController Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 You’re sure you didn’t just mix up the lids there with the excitement of taking them out of their boxes now?

WRENNEIRE Posted January 25, 2020 Author Share Posted January 25, 2020 Arrived this morning from the USA Bought on eBay and when I won the auction, at considerable expense, the seller tells me he does not do International postage and wants to cancel the sale. So after a few calls to a fellow collector in Texas,( Thanks P) I managed to get him to post to Texas and then they were forwarded to D05 On page 22 there is a picture of the O Gauge Sundries wagon in a first issue box, ref no 6711 This wagon is in a later issue box and carries a 31 prefix, so its 31 6711 I wasn't aware of this new numbered wagon previously, so now the hunt is on for any others This collecting is tough work people. For the non Specksavered ones among us there is some foreign instructions on this box that does not appear in the original one 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warbonnet Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 Check out address pal with An Post Dave, gives you a US address (like parcel motel) handy for those US only postage situations. Nice find! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WRENNEIRE Posted January 30, 2020 Author Share Posted January 30, 2020 Saved from the bid While dumpind some bits today I found this ad Came from an early Railway Modeller And as the gods would have it something very interesting (to me) on the reverse Love the lunch hour 1.30 pm - 3pm, hope Bosko takes note Fran. This is an ad for the Wrenn 152 set ( 1:52?) At the time Wrenn amalgamated with Tri Ang they were producing these sets Unfortunatly Tri Ang had just bought Scalex who made a tin plate racing car set. They decided to replace the tin with plastic and so part of the deal with Wrenn was that they ceased production of the 152 set, which was a far superior set at that time If you look at the ad you will see a deflector section, which allowed overtaking while racing They were made in both DC & AC Some 152 pics before Wrennexit! Oops, forgot these 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
