Hello Everyone. Glad you like the Co-op Milk Tankers. They are not in a museum but in the private collection of their maker - an engineer who creates completely accurate scale models of trains with every part hand made, right down to the tiniest cog and wheel. The skill and patience is phenomenal; the results of historic interest as well as beauty.
We were privileged, during the summer, to be able to visit his workshop - where this is one of the models on his bench.

What a great find. Never seen anything like this.
is it in a museum?
Wow, where did you find that? It is gorgeous, I love anything to do with rail travel.
Like it! Really nice colors!
The Co-op, Milk and a lovely shade of burnt orange - comfort in a single picture!
That's quite an impressive railcar, meticulously restored.
Great picture Lucy...so colorful and full of shapes. My question is...what happens if they are not equal??
