Not so many years ago my sister bought me a boxed set of U.S. track and stock but I'm not sure what gauge it is. Can anyone recognize it?? ;)

Ive seen a couple of those now but they were painted in a suitable red, white and blue tooth paste colouring.
I`m told they are perfect replicas of full size 1980 ones  ;)

These came in a set of four together with a playing board, dice, dynamite!, hazard cards etc. They are from the Waddington's Railroader game.

I still have mine !

Yep, still have mine too.  I love Railroader, just got no-one to play it with.

I believe it could be T gauge! ;D

Regardless of what it is it looks like fun and would look great sitting on a shelf in my shed/layout room with all the other things I have collected  :thumbsup:

The game can still be fun (if you're drunk ;D)
Sis found me a complete set.
