Congratulations, Ross!  

Andrew has a similar, two sided base, version that was presented to him by the forum at STIA 2009.

Enjoy!

(PS: Is there any resource for dating SEL's?)

Just this from Toyshop Steam by Basil Harley.

Signalling Equipment Limited or S.E.L. was 1 of 2 trade names (the other was Merit) used  by J & L Randall Ltd, Potters Bar, Hertfordshire, a British Toy Manufacturer. They made 5 Steam Engines between 1946 & 1965, four Stationaries and a Launch engine.

my finances are more than in order, so if I had a choice I'd have loads more than just 9 engines.

A well deserved prize in wonderful condition & a rather special addition to the collection. We certainly do have some amazingly generous & warm-hearted people on this forum...
