    I need to get a set of magnets for my Duchess, and make up an insulated brush holder to allow me to convert my City of Stoke on Trent to DCC

    I've seen Hornby for 2022 are doing special edition 70th anniversary Triang train sets ( Crash set and Victorian train set ) and Hornby Doublo locomotives (sorry two rail) - Duchess , A4 and Merchant Navy all three loco's listed at £320.99 - ouch

    Think I'll stick to my original Triang and Wrenn versions.

    My City of Stoke on Trent cost my Mum and Dad £12.83 in I think 1972/73

    Still with it's original owner, and will become my son and daughters issue to decide on its future ownership.
