I've just been looking at those 70's Hornby catalogue images again and a few things crossed my mind. Firstly the way father and son are cluttering up the baseboard with tools amd models I would be surprised if they ever finished building it. Oh, and exactly what is he trying to drill with a bit that size while his son appears to be attempting to cut his own fingers off? I do however still have a much modified and detailed version of the featured signal box which will eventually appear on Nether Sennet.
The "Hornby" construction kits are definetely sourced from a continental manufacturer, but is any one able to say which one? My first thought was Pola (before they were swallowed into Faller)
