Well my visit to the Falkirk Swap meet today was not too bad. I picked up this little lot for 50 pence each from the same vendor. Good value in my opinion. Hope you agree.

Nice haul Alex makes for a good day when you find items like that at good prices.

Some definite bargains there Alex, I see the regular wheels outnumber the superfast, are you stepping away from the dark side?

Not as good as some of your recent buys Dave. Looks like I will need to have a wee chat with you when I am next at the NEC, see if I can prize some of your recent finds away from you :D

Not quite JB but I won’t walk past a bargain when I see one. I love the #66c Greyhound Coach with the clear glazing and the #25c Bedford BP Tanker is nice and clean, so can’t complain. :D

Very nice. The Bedford petrol tanker has silver trim, which means it’s an early casting. It might even have the thin cab wall which would be an excellent find!
