Description

This vintage Hornby-Dublo model train collection by Meccano Ltd. includes a 4-6-0 Castle Class steam locomotive with a matching six-wheel tender and nine passenger carriages. The locomotive features a die-cast metal body finished in British Railways green livery with orange and black lining. It is identified by the nameplate Hartlebury Castle on the boiler and the running number 7033 on the cab sides. The tender displays the early British Railways lion and wheel emblem. The locomotive is configured for use with a 3-rail electric system. The rolling stock consists of nine passenger carriages in the British Railways Western Region chocolate and cream livery. The group includes several corridor coaches and restaurant cars, some of which feature The Bristolian roof boards. Visible carriage running numbers include W9572, W34881, and W15862. The set is accompanied by four original blue and white boxes: one EDLT20 locomotive box labeled Bristol Castle, two D21 corridor coach boxes, and one D20 restaurant car box.
