        32 Abstracts. I have a thought for these, which is in part to do more of them…. my idea is too accumulate 144 and publish in an ebook called “144 Abstracts” I’d be interested to hear people’s thoughts on the idea, and the abstracts so far.

      • No. 7187

        Posted at 1:32 pm by gatf, on June 13, 2020
        Image may contain: train, locomotive and land vehicle

        When I was young and used to spend a lot of time on model railways, Triang-Hornby had a little tank engine, or a family of them “Nellie”, “Polly” and “Connie” as well as some numbered brothers such as “No.27”. They had a certain charm, but were as much toy as model really. This year is Hornby Railways’ hundredth birthday, so as my own little tribute, here is No.7178 re-imagined as a real locomotive.
