Graham Farish never had any thing to do with Mini Trix they are 2 seperate Companys, Graham Farish were originaly based in Poole Dorset, until Bachmann took them over,
All manufacturing was then tranfered to China and the Poole factory was closed down,( more British Jobs lost to the Chinese), about the steam loco chassis they are all based on the Poole originals except for the new Jubillee, which is a completly new Loco and Chassis,the older chassis can either be good or bad runners.
