Memory Lane – Electrics

Below are some of my detailed OO Hornby and Lima Electrics that were done during the period 1980 – 2000. These were the best models you could buy then and if you wanted to improve them, then you had to do if yourself.

Most are repainted, re-wheeled, detailed, replacement pantographs and weathered. These certainly do not match their modern replacements in any way, but with extra weight they performed on several of my old layouts, Autumn Lane being best suited.

As I have moved to O gauge now, these have become surplus to requirements and I have a couple of people interested in taking them off my hands – below is about half my stock.

Great memories of improving quite basic models into the then Exhibition standards – no out of the box running then !!!
