Model Note

Note: Pride and joy of my fleet is the rare green version of the switcher but without the roof hatch moulding, which I can only assume makes it one of the very earliest of the production run. Sourced from the US with its original tc wagons, owner had it since new for a birthday present, he says in 1957.
