Yes a very nice group of models, do not see many that are in good condition and at a fair price. J

Re: MOTORMANS FINDS
Motorman, you were ripped off!!!
No dogs on the spur with the Kennel truck and no stretcher with the ambulance. I like the Porsche with the 45 label best. One thing that has always got me with this model is the label never appears upside down ie. reading 89 instead of 68 and yet most other models with a label which can be read correctly which ever way around it's applied you can find.
Cheers, Steve

Re: MOTORMANS FINDS
Well i really enjoyed the Carlisle meet today. I went there with a crisp Ten pound note in my pocket, It was the last of this months fun vouchers so i knew i would probably come home empty handed, thankfully i was very wrong.
I wont tell you what i paid for these two but i managed to get a hot roll and a cup of Tea from my Tenner and these two so i think i did rather well.
A nice minty #35 Merryweather Fire Engine with pre pro ladder and unbeleivably a rather nice if slightly beat up RW#41 Jaguar type D with red hubs
Hope you like.
