A few months ago I took a day trip over to the annual train show in Whanganui (and a look to see what was left of the castlecliff branch). Again a typical small show, with slim pickings layouts wise. I did get to watch the age old battle at the second hand stalls ie"I know whats thats worth but I don't want to look too keen or you will know too...".
The one thing of interest was an NZ120 layout with some of my old models from the early 1990's. Unlike Mr Bond, I had a sale which cleared almost everything out to fund a wargaming addiction (which still continues to this day). I havn't seen any of these in almost 30 years.
Yc wagons. I cast everything on these models, only using Peco wheelsets and couplers.
Cast Lc's (I think these were a mk2 version) on the good old Peco underframes.
Dc's 4778 and 4790 (sans handrails). I can't believe that the real thing ever got that dirty and wonder what I was thinking at the time. I think these were my final versions of the Dc's with multiple castings.
