 Newspaper kiosk on the village green. The red thing is a period mail box. These things were made of cast iron, and like the phone booths, made to last centuries and nuclear blasts.

 I got my first train set while living abroad in the UK in 1966. Bug bit pretty hard.

The shipping's a royal pain though, isn't it?

Interesting stuff Chops. Always good to see something different. There's as many ways to enjoy this hobby as there are people doing it.

Yes, the shipping is- quite so. Good pun. It does have the effect of tempering my focus, however. I have to kerb in the impulse buy and stay on track.
