I started to catalog my collection regarding to Nick's codes.

I have two 7a horsedrawn milk floats. One with mw, other with gpw. Gpw one fits to code 12.

Mw one fits to code 1. Left rear crate close to the back. So it must be code 1 or 2. Horse colour is definitely different from gpw one. So it must be not chocolate brown and must be code 1. All the others(braces, shaft base width etc.) fit with code 1 also.

But at Nick's guide code 1 have long horse front legs, code 12 have short horse front legs. The problem is my both model horses have same length front legs. At least it looks like same to me. Where can I find pictures to recognize which legs are short, which legs are long.

Thanks in advance.

See this thread which explains all.

Here are some pictures:

Thanks Idris. From this angle left front leg looks a little longer. I hope I can find chance to see more 7a models in my hand.

Wait for it ... where's the special leg horse from the 7a in Fred Bronner's office display?

Horse colours (including the elsusive chestnut brown) were discussed here.

Thanks a lot Idris. I can clearly understand that my 7a model with mw have chestnut coloured type A horse. Not sure if it have long legs though.
