Wow that one is really neat. Will have to look at what else they are offering.

Picked up this Dinky repro and a few others from a French vendor recently: The Dinky 111 TR-2 was on the wishlist back when I was a kid...more than fifty years later I finally get one.

Wow that looks awfully good.

At 1:55 scale, a bit small for O-gauge, Lesney's Models of Yesteryear line had a number of nice vehicles that can be used on the layout in a pinch. Here's a mint Rolls Royce Silver Ghost from the early/mid-1960s:Found this one in a Baltimore thrift store, still in its nice box.

I'd be remiss in not offering the Lledo Days Gone line as a good source of vehicles for the layout:There are many nice models in the range, although the majority of them are scaled at 1:64, which would make them best suited for S-gauge, perhaps a bit undersized for O-gauge. Move them to the back of the layout and forced-perspective can keep them looking appropriate.

Seen here is a brace of Rolls Royce models sporting different paint-schemes. Lledo went bankrupt in 1999, but Corgi bought the name and continued manufacturing the range until 2007 or so. There is still a lot of product out there, but its getting progressively more expensive, i.e. collectible, as each year goes by. Many can still be found for less than ten bucks. They made a lot of promotional stuff too, which can be really fun.
