What's your latest aquisition?
Here's my latest purchase, a Tri-ang-Hornby R.754 M7 in BR Black livery.
The box was tatty, crew were missing and the BR totem transfers on the tank sides were part missing as per normal.
The model is slowly being restored, a fresh box mint was found on ebay with incorrect labels (the one on the right) and I have crew and original totem transfers a plenty in stock, I will post stages of the restoration at intervals for all my friends on here to see as they take place.
Here's the loco pre-restoration but with nice new original 40+ BR Totem transfers put on the side tanks, a packet of the original transfers is posed by the loco for reference.
Hope all at Hornby like what I am doing to their old locos.
Enjoy!

Its times like this where you just need a LIKE tick rather than having to post an actual NICE LOCO.

R9289 No.2 Edward the blue engine and R9290 No.5 James the red engine. WD and LCDR as mentioned previously Hornby would not sell Thomas and Friends to Aus but Hattons did. They also had similar prices to Hornby's winter sale.
