#help These are the pictures, taken this evening, of my dining table. Earlier today a fellow member of my photographic club presented me with a cardboard box. He had purchased the contents from a flea market here in Spain - some years back. He was told the packages contained building parts for OO gauge railways. He opened one small package, saw the contents and decided they might be useful sometime in the future if he decides to build them and photograph them as a small diorama. Needless to say, that never happened and, he closed the box up and stored it in his spare room. During a clear out, he remembered the pieces and, knowing I had a model railway layout, asked if I would like them. That brings you up to date. So, the contents of the packets, within the box, are now what you see in the three photographs. I believe there to be: 1 Station house 1 Platform building (Waiting Room?) 1 Lean-to ticket office? 1 Cart house 1 Platform Toilet 1 Pig sty 2 Farm yard hut/chicken sheds 1 Landrover Various garden/farm walls These pieces have all been cast in plaster, to a very fine finish. All pieces are fully intact. Does anyone recognise these designs and/or have any ideas of possible model companies who may have provided either moulding kits or just the moulds for such plaster models? I have begun the obvious searches on the internet however, any other leads will be gratefully received. According to the packing newspaper wraps (Daily Mail dated January 2000) these were possibly cast late 1990s) Here’s hoping…..
