A collection of model railway accessories and vintage toys, primarily in OO gauge. The lot includes a large group of plastic building components featuring stone-effect textures in grey and cream tones, alongside a grey plastic railway wagon. Also included is an unpainted Lit Prints 3D-printed canal lock kit and barge, accompanied by an original instruction sheet. The collection features several bags of scenic modeling materials such as green flock, foliage, and grey ballast, and a green metal tin containing various plastic fencing and small components.
The vintage toy portion of the lot comprises a Palitoy Chopper Command flight simulator, consisting of a blue base with a control stick and a separate grey console with a helipad top and red levers. Furthermore, there is a group of plastic toy tractors and agricultural implements in orange, blue, and red, and two metal microscope-style objective lenses. The lot includes original packaging for Tri-ang Railways and Herald Miniatures Ltd, the latter bearing a label reading Made in England. A black plastic power controller with a large dial is also present. Some scenic material is contained in a bag with a white adhesive label reading Made in China.
