If I am reading my price list correctly. I have recently bought some new simple points and at around £25 I reckon they are a bargain in terms of quality/price/time to build.

Bernard My disposable income doesn't stretch to those sorts of figures - maybe that's why I though they were pricey. Perhaps I am in the wrong job.

The TPO is the short BR series version. Theset down collector is from the later Hornby LMS/GWR Mail car I think... The pick up is possibly correct for the box... The listing says complete, but one set of track clips, for the pick up, is not shown. Nor are the two operating ramps that clip into the track....which would in fact operate the short BR TPO, as well as the long TC TPO. EDIT: This is the correct TPO... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Hornby-R401-OPERATING-MAIL-COACH-BOXED-WITH-INSTRUCTIONS-1975-/390949268798?pt=UK_Trains_Railway_Models&hash=item5b06646d3e Edited October 28, 2014 by Sarahagain Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
