Combine me feeling reasonably flush (not loco buying flush, but not bad) and an excellent second-hand stall, and you won't be surprised that my rucksack was pretty full. Like any proper modeller, my first stop was the stand, and I pretty quickly worked out that stuff was priced to sell. A Bachrus rolling road for a fiver? That has got to be the bargain of the year. I already have one, but it only has three supports. Add these three, and I can test bogie locos properly. An 80s Hornby Post Office kit - you'll see that one in The Collector at some point. Kenline chassis? Cheap, and a little nostalgic. There is also the possibility of a project that might make use of it...Grass and flower tufts are handy scenic standbys, a 7mm scale whitemetal fitter kit likewise. Grafar wagons can wait for another post, there is a bit of a Beatties backlog to get through. Petite Properties barge kit? I wanted one as soon as they announced it, but they don't normally take dolls house stuff to toy train…
