Part of the job lot was a bag of sundry bogies and wheels which I hadn't properly investigated. Most of it, apart from the wheels, seems to be dross, but...



The missing triplet bogies were there!! Deep joy!

There'll be dancing on the streets of Lindfield tonight.

Cheers,

PS. The wheels on the middle bogies don't match the others. I might replace them with something a little less Poppingham-esque.

W hat an interesting model.

I'm presuming that the middle carriage with the whitened out windows is the kitchen car?

Yes, that's correct, the Kitchen Car is in the middle with if memory serves "First Class" dining one side and "Third" the other.

@Papyrus it looks very much like a Cavendish kit (later taken over by Ultima I believe) which dates it to probably late 70s/early 80s - what a fabulous find!
