I have a few smaller freight cars. They were made for the train lines in Great Britten. They are made by different manufactures but of the same style. Because of the 3 photo limit it will take a three posts for the seven photos. They are the only 13 cars I have of thie type.

Norstand Fish Docks. made by Hornby. then Sifta Table Salt. made by Wrenn.



A couple of fish reefers. Fine Fish. underneath it says "Made in England" I think it is a Tri-ang car. then Birds Eye Fish Fingers. also Tri-ang.



A wooden gondola Bannockburn,Plean Colliery Co. Limited, Coke, & Smithy. a Tri-ang car. then Redline tank car, Hornby

Well maybe NE is Thomas. I really don't know. I just know it is some kind of a Caboose. I am 64 years old, 6 foot 2, and 240 lbs. One thing I learned is bigger isn't always better.
There is a place for the tall, and the small.

Ken ; That means we are all set in our ways. Controversity isn't a bad thing. It keeps the conversation going. It even gets funny when those conversing get silly.
