I have an interest in the trains made in Liverpool by Frank Hornby, who might be thought of as the J.L. Cowen of the British Empire prior to WWII, and for a time thereafter. I will post a few pictures of mine, and invite anyone else to post pics of theirs.
This is my first acquisition, purchased on a whim in 2000 when an LHS was going out of business. This is a clockwork No. 1 Tank Engine, issued in LMS livery in 1926. The clockwork motor on it is superb.
