Model Train Sale (Get the word out if possible)

Hi all. I would like to draw attention to the following Vectis auction which is coming up this coming Friday 18th May.

The listing is under the Model Train Sale and the collection is then part 1 of the "Trix Northumbrian Collection". I will link it below and this is the first of 3 parts.

As you can see, there are a lot of really lovely examples here and athough many great memories will remain it will be a sad day to see them eventually all go. It's for a family member in order to raise funds, and so if anyone you know out there might be interested in talking a look, it would be really appreciated if you would help bring the auction to their attention.

It would help a lot to make this as successful as possible, and also it would be nice to see them go to a passionate collector that otherwise might have missed it if it wasn't for you spreading the word somehow.

Thanks for reading!

Unreal?.....Why, because ya never hear of "Trix Twin" these days, 'çause they went out of business many years ago, BUT, in the fifties they were a VERY good product, all steel & beautifully made, & I HAD a very small set, with an 0-4-0 tank engine, nothing as good as in this sale!
There is some magnificent stuff there, but I believe spare parts may be an issue?
