underground ernie collection

well I thought since I like these trains and I am collecting some I would make a threat about my journey into this side collection I have first battery operated the list: 
Victoria


jubilee


BAKERLOO

face close up


circle

well I need to get Hammersmith and city later on to complete the main 6 of the battery operated range but then there's the internationals which will be interesting
now lets see the pullbacks that I own 
circle and coach


city


Victoria and her coach


well Hammersmith is not a pullback engine as he is technically a coach as he is a free roller 

I will get BAKERLOO and Victoria in the mail on Monday so that will be interesting to report here and after that I just need to find a pullback jubilee 

now lets see the die cast ones that have sounds 
jubilee


and the ernie 1

I will need to get the 5 other ones but I have very little interest in that as I want to finish the battery operated ones first
additional items 
the set were I got jubilee,circle and BAKERLOO

other things include the cards for the diecast as for the packaging 

so yeah that's my collection I was thinking of getting a Bachmann figure of ernie but that can wait so this collection is growing and it will not stop until I get most of the characters still a way to go

cool!

[Super]

Excellent T-Real. I have always wanted to see a collector of Underground Ernie motorized trains as I haven't found one yet. Looking forward to watching your collection grow. Are you also going to add the Sets to your collection?

well I definitely will but that will be achieved at some point I do plan on some so yeah

well well these came Tuesday due to bank holiday so I finally was able to have a closer look new addition to this collection: a pullback bakerloo I got these on an auction on eBay and I put £4.99 as the bid and it was the same one so I won here are Victoria and bakerloo 


now lets have a closer look at bakerloo with his coach 
one shot


second shot 


and side shot the coach is almost as close to length to the engine but that could explain why circle has 4 doors instead of six on each side because if it did she would be almost as long as the coach


now lets look at the coach 


and another shot of it


bakerloo is the same although his logo is a bit higher than the battery operated version


now lets look at some diferences between the pullback and battery operated one

face wise the pullback had a few inconsistencies mostly in the cheeks and paint

pullback has no hole or inside for the battery the battery operated runs by batteries the pullback is obvious 


the battery operated one now seems complete 


now lets look at Victoria 

the middle is pullback (old)
the one on the left is the new pullback I got
and the one on the right is the battery operated one 

the coaches will be seen later

and a shot of my 3 Victorias 


now lets look at the coaches and some differences 
colour differences


face paint difference ones dark the other is light


the new coach on the bottom has big pins on one side the old one on top does not 

well I will definitely remove the ugly sticker mark left on the coaches and yeah I got them I am happy but Bakerloo's back at the coach is somewhat yellow I will deyellow in the future so its not ugly one more pullback to finish the main then battery operated Hammersmith and city

[Super]

I have never seen a Bakerloo with a Coach before. So I assume the motorized version never had a Coach released and you have added the coach from a Pullback Bakerloo? If so, it looks to be a perfect match.

yes precisely pullbacks have the coaches but the battery ones don't they perfectly match

well I purchased this lot with 6 engines and 1 coach and it was a good one it was a bid but it had best offer so I offered £9 and In total I paid £13 so I got it today 
the items that were on the lot go as followed 


jubilees coach


the back


and here it is with jubilee now he's complete 


a new addition Moscow from Russia 


the face the thing he has on the hat is the Russian star I imagine


on the bottom its different as it would have a long stick in the back to stop the engine and doesn't have the square that is on the other main six his button goes down when pressed with batteries and when off it goes back to the position it was before 

now you can see that Moscow and circles bottom are different


a bakerloo that is somewhat corroded but makes a lot of noise


second bakerloo that makes somewhat noise but is still quite slow


circle who is slow and was at one point played with


Victoria who goes slow thanks to her I used some parts to make my Victoria a better runner 


and a battery operated Hammersmith 


his face is good as I replaced it with my pullback one better condition

overall I got a good selection of characters and I could use some of the repeats for parts now I just need a battery operated city after that I will be on the look out for Osaka and Paris who will be a little difficult but I will have the main 6. Before circle Victoria and bakerloo had coaches but now jubilee does he's one of my more favourite characters and I am happy he's complete with the others

[Super]

Well you certainly got a great price for such an assortment T-Real I have to say that I have not heard of or seen that Russian one before. Are you saying his name is Moscow?

yes his name is Moscow
