Adding to my Hornby 00 Collection...

Well I've been acquiring quite a few locomotives so its about time I increased my rolling stock otherwise what will they pull? So for a starter here's a job lot of Lima branded rolling stock I just received;

First up some larger box wagons;

1 x Coca-Cola


1 x Schweppes


3 x Heinz


1 x British Rail


Now some private owner plank wagons (originally typically used to haul Coal, although other loads would be carried at times).

1 x Pinxton


1 x Greater Western


2 x J K Harrison


2 x P W Spencer


1 x Black Park Colliery


Now some 'normal' sized box wagons, these are typically about the same size as the private owner wagons and guards vans.

1 x Wall's (Ice Cream manufacturer among other things)


1 x St Ivel (Dairy)


1 x Greater Western


1 x LMS


1 x Lucas Batteries


1 x Blue Circle Cement Tanker


1 x British Steel 'Hopper'


1 x Esso Fuel Tanker


1 x Guard Van (White Roof)


1 x Guard Van (Grey Roof)

Finally a couple of really quite special wagons

The first is a flat wagon with 3 cars as cargo, the really nice thing is the cars here are lovely detailed diecast models, not the normal primitive plastic ones you get, this was included in the above job lot.



The last one was an individual box wagon I purchased separately, purely because it is very unusual and I'd never seen one like it. Although you get plenty of box wagons, it is unusual to get one that is this long - about the same as a passenger carriage.
