The box actually looks to be a bit weathered, is that what it looks like to you! All in All, a great haul of locomotives.
Funny you should mention that Boxcar Super, I really like that one as well, as you say it does look a little weathered, but that is not an effect added it is simply that it is a quite old wagon with a little 'play wear'. But it definitely adds to the realism look, which on that particular wagon seems to really work well. Some I don't think its so good, but that is a nice one.

Thanks Ucwepn, they are indeed lovely and you're right about the 4 wheeled Thomas there was indeed one at one time. In fact they are still readily available on eBay in the UK as is most Hornby models
Happily collecting things all my life...
