|
|
Ok, following on from my other thread with my flatbases I thought I would show you all my mobiles, which I've not added to for some time now.
It will be too hard to list them all, so i'll just stick up the pictures of them I didn't include the loco's as I don't really class them as part of the mobiles, and I've done them all before anyway .
I've had a lot of these, countless '72 TE1a's, about another 6-7 SR1a's, another 4 roadsters, another FE1 you get the point, all of which I sold to cover costs for other models, and my car at the time
The whole crew
First half closer
Second half of them all closer up
My three rollers, closest is quite a rare variation, the first short handled reversing SR1a along with a couple of SR1's from around 65
Close up of the SR1a
Close up of my best SR1
Rear of my best SR1, single handled bent (one for Griff)
A couple of Roadsters (early type) I did have another 2 of the later wheeled version but sold 'em
Nice close up picture of the decal for Mike
My TE's!
A late-ish TE1a just before the sight glass as the picture below shows
In preparation for the sight glass
One of my favourites, the brass roadster, just over 1000 made along with the FE1
Brass SA1
The FE1 is a nice little model, or big
The daddy! DV1, this is one of Mamods best modern models
The SA1L Limo, yes the roof is metal
Mamods best mobile IMO! the SW1 a couple of Greeny's and a bluey on show there
My green SW1, minter
This is the blue SW1, strangely with the rarer white writing on the sides!
Well what is on the wish list here then?
Nut and Bolt TE1 definatly! I sold my last to Manxman
Nut and Bolt SR1, that shouldn't be too hard
The later SA1 with the sightglass and different wheels
Maybe a few more variations of SR1a and TE1a, but i'm happy with all I have . Maybe even a bus

Great mobiles. Let me know if you ever want to sell the DV1!
I liked the fire engines until I read they don't squirt water. When are you going to do the Loco photoshoot? _________________ Chris

Doubt i'll ever sell the DV1 it really is a great and underated model!
If the fire engine was to squirt water then it would cost around another 100 pounds more
Will do the loco shoot tonight  _________________ Solid Fuel tablets explode

Well MM what can I say. A great set of models. I love them all. Now about your blue Steam Wagon. I'm sure it would look better in my collection, and you do need money to replace what was spent on the SE4......
Lots of fun. You can't beat a good mobile. _________________ Manx, the mobile man |

Cheers Manxman!
The blue wagon is one of my favourite. I keep all my little special items in the back of it, my James Bond cars, a couple of holiday snaps, postcards
I've already sold a RS2 railway set and a couple of SR1's. There may be a couple of other departures but this one is happy at it's home, would look great amounsgt your army though Manx  _________________ Solid Fuel tablets explode

Ahhh, that explains a lot.
I just hope you don't smoke.  |
LOL
I'd be ok with a lighter near the solid fuel, they never light anyway  _________________ Solid Fuel tablets explode
