Digging in a drawer for an old wagon for use in a magazine article, I found something I'd forgotten I owned. Hardly surpriseing, as it's tiny - but there's no surprises that when I spotted it, I bought it.
The prototype is a train from the famous Post Office underground railway.
Scale is 4mm - the model is 90mm long. I didn't paint this, but I don't think it is a professional souvenier.
It's cast metal, but feels heavier than whitemetal, but that's a guess and I can mark the base with a screwdriver, so it's soft.
The ends are pivoted, but the wheels (unsuprisingly) solid.
So, where did this come from? Who made it? Why can't I remember buying it?I know readers of this blog like a mystery, so any answers would be appreciated.
