Phase 1 of gathering and clearing out all my recently deceased friend's model railway stuff. OMG he had so much stored away in drawers!

Came across a dozen or so paint pots by "Replica Paint Products" "The modellers choice" in glass bottles with child-proof click-caps.  They would seem to be enamels, possibly pre-thinned to suit airbrushing.  Just wondering how old they are (I reckon probably 1980s) and were they any good?   Possibly related to Replica Railways as the branding and address in Lambourn are similar.

From the 90s.  I have a sheet listing the colours, R02 is Rail Red. S09 is not listed- it stops at S08!

Thanks Pete.  Any chance you could scan the colour list if you get a spare moment?  No urgency - for now they will go on the shelf with all my own and my son's paints.   I'll probably do the usual trick of giving them a good stir and adding a small drop to the cap for reference.   

This is just the start of the clear out, I know there are still loads of Humbrol tinlets and others to gather up!
