Lovely find there Daniel ! And how lucky to find it local too.

Sadly this week my finds arent local but come from my friend in The Netherlands again who is keeping an eye out for me ... One find I was not even aware of until a few weeks ago , so this week when he said he could pass one on to me I was a very happy chappy ... I saw a Distler 1180 Locomotive on ePay for the first time , and sadly it did not have a mechanism , just the body and some wheels in a homemade chassis ... and I was tempted , then I thought .. what are the odds of ever finding a mechanism for it ? Pretty close to zero I would expect ...

Then comes the email from my friend !!! Whooo Hooo!

So yep I now have a prewar JDN ( Distler) 1180 loco !

Also he came up with a very nice Konrad Dressler KD72040 Locomotive in Silver ... I aldready have a black one and tender in te collection , but I think the Silver looks Fab !
