Action at Only Child Farm (1)
The three half tracks arrive at Only Child Farm, what or who is waiting for them?
The roco minitsnks! Memories, still have about a dozen or so. Lovely range, we used them with our Airfix, did not worry about the size the early Airfix and indeed Matchbox, figures were quite small compared to the current ranges and mskes.
Had always intended to cut the roofs off, never got around to it tho. Hexagon magazine had a series of articles, showing conversions using the SWS chassises. Articles R still available on the net,kindly made available by the New Zealand Mecanno group?
May sadly be lost in post, despatched 2 or 3 weeks since. Parcel was 8 inches by 5 , not greatly valuable but items difficult to find. Hope it turns up.
Hexagon? No I typed Mecanno! The Brave New World! It's no wonder we need to fear this new technology, it even changed FEAR to READ!!!! The robots are watching, waiting and getting ready.
Those half-tracks look very OS
