If you're interested, take a look !

Must be changes they made through the years.

My Triang Class 31 runs fine through the code 100 points (doesn't go down on one knee as it goes across the frog), but if I gently move it by hand along the track I can feel it bumping over the chairs and if I run it, I can hear it.

Just adjust the back-to-back to between 14.2 - 14.5 mm it should then run through peco code 100 points
Well, that could have been done… I guess the better outcome of the sale of these items is that it will allow me to purchase some locos that I would like to acquire, with a great deal more detail ! :mrgreen: Some how I think the Class 08 I have for auction doesn't sit to well next to modern stock.

A comparison between the current Bachmann Class 08 and the 1960-61 Triang model.



,,,and to think as a young boy I was stoked with the Triang model…!

Cheers, Gary.

Well, The ebay auction is over and I'm quite a happy chappy now ! :Happy

I'm always amazed what people will bid for such models. The best sale was the Class 08 at over $100.00 Au (£55.00). I think I'll treat myself to some new models over the next week or so !

Cheers, Gary.
