LNER No 1870

Post by x568wcn »

Just thought I'd share what I bought on Saturday.
It weighs 5.14 1/4 KGS, is solid brass, and has a large Replica on the back (just in case!)
You can scoff at the NRMs £100 price, but if I got it direct from Procast (whome made it and stamped their name on the back!) It is £115 for a finished one like it...oh and 17.5% vat....oh and £10.50 postage!

Oh, we have Brasso'ed it, and it came up a treat, I had to be careful not to get me in the photo!!
