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!

Sorry disagree Jacob. It’s a magazine. If we all posted each time we bought a magazine about railways the forum would explode.

Another Kernows/DJ Models Adams 0-4-4T Class 02 Steam Locomotive – 30225 – BR Black livery – DCC Ready.
Nice model /purchase there BB!
Speaking with Chris Trerise last Saturday gave me the impression that Kernow are no longer involved with DJ Models and are now dealing with manufacturers directly on their long-awaited Warship (as well as other projects in the pipeline).
He did try to tempt me with an O2 but to no avail......
Thanks Colin - I think they have a few left in stock - they still have the Beattie Well Tank. I might try adding sound to this one (the 02) - looks fairly straightforward to do using a Zimo Sound Decoder and a SugarCube 9 speaker. BB

Jacob if you buy a loco and post it on here several might think that’s nice I think I'll get one. The magazine you bought today has more than likely been purchased by a large majority on this forum some 3 weeks ago. Still you carry on, I know you will.
